    Default Thinking about fishing Percy Priest tomorrow out of Stewart’s ferry any suggestions?


    Hey guys I just moved to middle TN a few months ago. Thinking about going to Percy priest tomorrow and pulling cranks, out of Stewart’s ferry since it’s the closest ramp to me 50 mins away. I’ve never fish pp before any suggestions or tips?

    I actually made my first trip today. I pulled bandits, bombers and pico’s. Caught fish on all of them in 14 to 20 feet of water. But only 2 crappie, 3 hybrids, and about one hundred yellow bass. I was fishing out of Fate Sanders. The creel checker said they were trolling and catching by 4 corners and Hobson pike bridge.

    I appreciate it! I pulled cranks on old hickory today out of cedar creek. Caught 2 13-14” crappie, a 4lb large mouth. Couple hybrids, channel cat, and a few yellow bass. Sounds like we had about the same day lol.

    If you don't have a gps system with JPP map, make sure you pay attention to all marker buoys. There are several places that you can destroy a lower unit in a blink. Winter pool is a lot more dangerous.....
    Hobson Pike bridge /4 Corners area is my go to trolling area as well. Blue/chartreuse has been good producer.
    Be safe and good luck!

    I fished old hickory again today again and caught 10 bass and 3 drum trolling. Think I’m gonna have to back up and punt, change strategy for sure.
