Many fish are included in the Bream description. Bluegills and Shell Crackers ( Red Ear Sunfish ) are only two. Crackers top and Bluegill bottom.

I believe that water from below the dam thru the generators would be a fair indicator. For instance, Jan. 31 at 7 miles below Watts Bar we measured 38.5*F. surface. Another report from Feb. 4 at 40...

I only fish on two occasions, when I am by myself and when I am with someone. I only fish two ways, when I am trolling and when I am not trolling.

Don't know about the Crappie. Hybrids and Striper are doing very well.

Yeah!!! That's what I'm talking about. Me too Kingfish1.

My catches show mostly males on the beds as of Tuesday. I release the heavy females anyway. Females with eggs will be up very soon. With the redear, it will not take long before they get'er done...

According to the TVA site, the lake is + 2.3 feet above full pool as of 8:00AM. The rain fall of past weekend was in the range of 4". I cannot speak to the clarity of the water but it could be...

Look on Google Earth just south and a little west of Crossville, Tn. There you will find Lake Tansi. This would not be my choice for fishing for many specie as it is at best 1.5 miles in length. ...

I like L.A. Crappie Baits.

L.A. CRAPPIE BAITS offering top brand crappie/panfish baits and lures

Yep. I have a 798ci SI. The gps speed indicator is no where near as accurate as the 788ci that I replaced. The new unit shows 1.4 mph sometimes while the lcd on my Ipilot fob shows .9 . I believe...

You might check with the guys in the Tennessee Striped Bass Association (TSBA). They have a web page with forum. Maybe some of those guys can offer help. Not anything to me but you might consider...

Pat and I were sorry to hear the news. We certainly will send prayers for a good friend and his family.

Be very careful in cold weather. A high percentage of people who fall in frigid water do not survive. It is a great time to fish and I do it regularly. Carry a covered 5 gal bucket of dry sand...

Spent the morning on the main lake near Thief Neck looking for cats. I believe that the Crappie should grow fast. It appears to me that there are the most bait fish on the surface that I can ever...

Tenncrappie's friend's Telico fish.85413

I go each and every time with hopes of a limit. At the end of the day I am happy for the experience and what every number I caught. It is all about being optimistic and sharing with good friends.

I like the Owens-Corning dimensional shingle on my house. I simply am not going to go out in a heavy rain. The misery outweighs the fun for me. I do carry a set of BP Gore Laminates in my boats...

They have gone shallow for the bait and prespawn. They may have gone really shallow yesterday afternoon however. Word is that there was a BAD MOON over Hiwassee mid-afternoon. I'm just saying I...

I don't have the new sonar. However, I do have the I-Pilot. Prior to that I had PD with Autopilot and Copilot. The I-Pilot has some features such as spot lock and cruise control that can't be had...

Harley2004 should be correct. I once talked to a marina owner who told me that there were about 500,000 fingerlings stocked each year to keep the fishery maxed out. These fish were bought and paid...

Thanks for your input. It looks like the timing is near the same as for the Tennessee River. Rain and cold will affect them here as well. I will keep in touch and thanks again.

I am looking for any info on Clark Hill as far as the timing (date) of the pre-spawn run into the flats. Without giving up your secret spots, any recommended location for a Tennessee guy to fish...

It's a little confusing to say the least. An array is to have only one hook ( spreader rig with multiple jigs such as umbrella style? )!! A single line with multiple jigs on the same straight ...

I heard a story about a mule one time. Seems the mule would rather fish than hunt any time.

Walleye that were stocked in the river below Fort Loudon are river run that were natural to the rivers before the lakes were impounded. These fish will spend their lives in the waters where current...

I caught a few shorts and one keeper at 15" on Friday. Not quite ready and won't be as good as years past. Very hot weather like we had this summer is tough on Sauger. I was in a meeting where a...

Commercial fishing that I am aware of is mainly for spoon bill. The egg roe is in high demand in Japan and the commercial guys want to open all water to nets. What monetary value is the carp? ...

harley2004 is correct. The guys with the big Crappie booth have not been in a few years. It has gone down hill for several years. I remember when Nutter Reel Repair had a booth and you could get...

It was a hoot for me to Kevin. It's a pleasure to go with two great guys and good friends. As I said yesterday, I just love being there and I love everything about fishing of all kinds. I agree...

It is legal when you catch your bait on rod and reel. For stripers, keep the bait very happy in a good tank and just before you hook it on, take scissors and cut of the dorsal fin. Stripers do not...
