Not suited for tunas

How much money ya got? I’ve been out fished and out casted by people using Mountain Dew bottles as rods and/or reels and line they salvaged out of the Rip rap they were standing on. It’s all a matter of how much you want to spend and how bad you need the fish . When eating dinner depends on successful catching, people will surprise you

Probably the most interesting inquiry in the history of my time on bass resource. Congrats ! Looks like a crappie trolling reel to me

Buzz bait because fish WILL NOT eat a whopper plopper in my area. I mean literally they WILL NOT do it. I’m starting to think it must resemble some northern food source because people rarely seem to have any luck with them

Yea it’s now a golf practice facility , just downstream of Alcoa highway bridge

I’ve heard several of them have been creating chum slicks on the latest northern swing

A pontoon boat transported three to safety but one person didn’t make it out. Not all pontoons are bad! we had two choppers buzz us very low while fishing Sunday, right over our heads https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.knoxnews.com/amp/5578702002

Everything is all normal down this way, fishing wise. River rolling downhill, bass eating plastic worms. Here’s hoping for better luck the rest of the year

Both my lake neighbors have had to get a bunch of rip rap hauled in on a barge. I’m guessing that’s very expensive! So far our dirt is holding but it’s only a matter of time. They set up a ramp to jump right out in front of our dock!

Almost any bomber long A is bone when you scratch the paint off with a pocket knife. People have been winning a lot of money slow wobbling that plug on top for a lot years. It is very difficult not to soil your linens when a smallmouth comes up from 20 feet down to grab a long A, then dive right back down

Same for TN river. I’ve had two story boats that you would imagine jay z was driving get that close to me. And barges you have to run and hide from “you scratched my anchor” -Rodney dangerfield in caddy shack

Welcome! Let me know if you ever make it to East TN

Things don’t get a whole lot better off the bank. Couldn’t help but think of @A-Jay on this one hahaha

I have several Ponds right near my house and I’ve never fished any of them. I’m starting to realize why after reading bank fishing threads.......

Good for BP, congrats. That will cover his buyout and then some

Ah, the American dream! You would probably get shut down by the local govt or taxes and permits would outweigh your profits haha

Two reasons: 1) it catches fish 2) it’s the color of a shad

The possibilities are endless! French broad, Nolichucky, pigeon, little Tennessee, holston, little river, tellico, clinch, even abrams creek in the national park has smallies. And then there are all the lakes! Cherokee, tellico, Norris, Watauga, and south holston are all excellent smallmouth Fishing. Douglas fort Loudon and watts bar are also very good

Fun day on the river with @Jermination. We caught lots of small fish and a few decent ones, water temp 73-75.

Weightless finesse worm with some sparkles in it. Throw it out there, don’t move it AT ALL and watch your line

I hate that stuff . We get it way down deep in the dead of winter on highland lakes. I set the hook every time thinking it’s mister big

Sweet!

I don’t know exactly how long but they rust in my wet tackle box in 1.5-2 days

Spoons and grubs
