I fished at 18-mile creek over the summer and it was great. Tough bite, but plenty of fish.

I live in Kentucky. My favorite river for smallies is the famed Elkhorn Creek which is mostly rock and dirt/sand. It's great! I typically take my ned rig and catch them by the dozens. Near my house is another creek/river that has a good amount of smallies in it. I've caught some decent ones out of there, but I mostly catch heaps of grass, or moss. I know the ned rig will catch them, but what is your advice with fishing these grassy/mossy areas? What would you use?

My wife and I are thinking about traveling to Asheville near Christmas. We'd like to take the kayaks out and do some fishing. Any suggestions?
