On Saturday my friend Ryan came down from Knoxville and we took out the Canoe.
We were on the water for over 8 hours! The drive time is 2.2 miles! That's one windy-ass river!
We took around 40 fish, mostly 1 to 1.5 pound smalls and largemouth bass, with the occasional red-eye, brem, and even 3 crappie!
Ryan and the first good bass of the day.
Nice small!
Now were talking!
After a long day, I thought I would head out on Monday morning and see what kind of trouble I could get into in the 'Yak. I thought I would be able to cut the float time in half....I was wrong! 6 hrs later I had only pulled out about 20 fish when I came to a hole Ryan and I skipped...Then I looked at it...and thought a bit...and thew in my line. I sat in this hole for about 45 min and pulled in small and large mouth right and left. I caught 1 4lber and had 2 more on the line that were bigger. One jumped and threw the hook, the other snapped my 4lb test line while the drag was being stripped...clean break, not a knot slip!
