    Default Shelby's whites


    Just wondering where the whites have been hitting on shelbyville. My boys are wanting to go out and I havn't been for awhile. I would like for them to see them busting the top, something they havn't seen before and truely would love to see them have that experience. Thanks for any help. Pat

    We are coming over there on the 19th and wondering what time of the year do they fire up big time. Will put in at Bo Woods.

    Wow, what a great morning for the whites. I got into a big bust east of coalshaft abd followed them past no name into the next big cove north of the big hump in the middle of the lake, no stop action for hours. Bust after bust of fish just kept coming at me. Got tired of catching them and quit at 11:00. Catching them on nearly every cast using a yellow roaster tail. Its safe to say I think its on now. 58 whites, 1-4lb cat, and 1 crappie.
    Lets go soak a line. Pat
