    Default Never seen anything like this before-


    Sailfish and I were in a cove yesterday. The baitfish activity was pretty good but all of a sudden for as far as we could see. every baitfish jumped out of the water2-3 feet in unison. It was a sight to behold. Then about 2-3 Seconds later we heard a large blast from a near rock quarry that is operational. After discussing this we came to the conclusion that the fish felt the shock before we heard the blast. In giving this more thought I was wondering if anybody around Reelfoot has seen anything like this when there has been a earthquake there? How lucky we were to see such a sight.

    you know that reminds me as a kid fishing in a pond by my house in the 60's and a jet broke the sound berrier and every fish in that pond surfaced. it was a sight to see an we went on to catch fish every cast for next hour.

    That's a couple of really neat stories. I've never seen anything like that, but would love to!

    I noticed one day I was fishing near a short railroad trestle at Bull Run Stm Pkt and every time a coal train went by in a few minutes later several species of fish turned on. White bass, rock bass, bluegill, yellow bass and channel cats, carp and buffalo..

    I fish Reelfoot Lake all the time and have never noticed the fish do that (except for the jumping carp). But I have noticed that I have been fishing and have no bites for over an hour and then the next ten min catch them as fast as you can.
