I usually troll them trying to tickle the bottom in 18-19 ft. Lots of guys get the boat up against the bank and grind it all the way back

I can rent you one on tellico! Especially if you are handy with drywall and flooring and water diversion

As a man who deals with opossums for a living, that is definitely not what we have here haha.

You can eat groundhog, as long as you don’t make a stew

With a side dish of W!

Ouch!!!!

Gotcha thanks. The French broad has all those species

Barleys is indeed a massive place and the parking near it under the bridge is free and pretty big. It only gets completely full when the late night crowd arrives. A lot of parking downtown should be free on weekends and after 6 on weekdays.

Hopefully not like last time!! If it ain't too much trouble..... Haha

I've heard tale of people video game fishing with a damiki and catching fish down that deep on some tributary lakes. They do it in winter when the water is about 47-50 degrees top to bottom and the fish roam around following alewives. In summer, the water stratifies and that deep water is cold and nearly void of oxygen

Well there are dozens of places in market square, the ones are open for breakfast are probably tupelo honey, tomato head, and cafe 4. Old City Java is also nearby. I have eaten at tomato head and tupelo honey, they are both tasty, maybe around 10-20 bucks. I have never personally been to cafe 4 except for concerts but I've heard it is excellent. There's a place called honeybee coffee over on my side of the river (never been in) just across the gay st bridge but it would probably require transportation from downtown, it's probably 1.5 miles away. Everyone in my neighborhood seems to like it

Im down if I don't have to work! I can't believe I've never heard of Pete's coffee shop but I know market square very well, only about 3 miles from my front door. The market square parking garage is usually my favorite for accessing that area .

Excellent advice, but what’s a mature river?? An old one? They say the French broad river (and nolichucky and maybe little Tennessee) are older than the Appalachian mountains because they flow from Carolina back through the mountains into Tennessee.

Oh man I got totally duped!!!! I read the second or third reply about a blockbuster and I was about to ask him where in the &@“$((@@ can you find one of those??? Then I saw 2006 on the post

They are biting from what I hear but there’s a crap load of logs floating around . Keep your taters peeled!

The river is crazy right now! I crossed below the dam at work and it looked like Godzilla was emerging from the water

It is “customary” to tip a guide. It’s just something that most people do, not expected but appreciated and more importantly remembered. Repeat customers make up a ton of a guide’s schedule. I’ve known more than a few outfitters who just say they are booked up if you didn’t tip last time they took you fishing. It’s not like a clerk at a store that sees hundreds of customers a day, a guide remembers their clients

I love trolling for bass

Anytime man. I’ll be in the same building as a bunch of your fellow kentuckians at 2pm tomorrow...........

There's a lot!!!! Calhoun's is pretty popular

Grand Central station What on Earth are you thinking using common sense????!

I've seen some studies that show almost zero delayed mortality and some that showed close to 95 percent. Summertime heat is the main killer of tournament caught livewelled bass, it ain't a secret. They have been conducting legit studies on this for decades . Scientists, not fishermen

Give em hell @Glaucus!

Well that sounds fun!

There's floaters all around after big tournaments here . And not all fish that die float either
