They sure will. Especially up against a log or rock close to the bank. Even cow ponds have current in East TN haha

They make a transducer trolling motor mount , I got mine for like $14.99

Sweet! You will be dangerous in the salt with that thing.

I have a couple quarries near my house I need to explore. That's where the yaks and canoes are awesome, no boat ramp no problem

Junebug/red

Tossing red rattle trap?

@N Florida Mike is adding all kinds of things to his arsenal! Look out bass. We caught some white bass today, are those bass or other species? Anyways Here they are. Current about 3 mph

That’s the mushy bite!!!! I just remembered another good way to improve strike detection. Set up on a school of crappie or white bass and catch them with all kinds of lures. Spoons grubs hair jigs drop shot etc. They will hit it all so you can learn what everything feels like

Shallow river smallmouth would more fun in July in TN. I imagine a private pond would be almost boiling by that point. If I was in your location, I would head to lake Erie that time of year!

That one that almost bit my cricket was at least 9 lbs

Winter is at least 5-7 days a year down there....... sometimes.,........ Haha

I drive mine down the driveway to get the mail every morning.......

That depends on the jon boat..... Unless you have two cars and two free days, you aren't getting a kayak where my boat is sitting in this picture. We did it with one vehicle in an afternoon. We used to only dream of day trips fishing there with kayak/canoe until I created that rig

My buddies canoe registration costs more than one of my boats. They go by length and it's a monster old town!

Eating at Subway now....... Might have missed my 3 hours but I was dealing with a raccoon in a chimney..... Yes I washed my hands ......

Not a bad system..... I love to go to my relatives houses and founder on their food until I'm so stuffed I have to lay on the floor. Here's me and my brother after Thanksgiving at Mom's place this year. Food coma. We did that almost every night growing up and mom would get upset and say "boys i spent a fortune on all this furniture and here you are laying on the floor"

Whichever one fits the bait the best. Not much different than worm fishing. They are also really effective weightless

Near my house, it all depends on current. Some days a 3/16 oz bullet weight gets swept away, some days it doesn’t. @Catt posted an interesting video of a kid using 1 oz jigs in shallow stump fields. Flip to the stump, hit it, and let the jig fall straight down. If no bass, try the next stump
