Thread: It was a beautiful day, but... 1/27/19

Not many fish were caught by me or Dr Phil. We launched from the Wolftever creek ramp at 8 am and it was so nice outside that we fished until 1 pm. We struggled to put fish in the boat, but we did managed to catch 8 fish but only two keeper crappie and one spotted bass.

Water temp was 46.8 when we started and tva was spillIng about 100,000 cfs so the current in the river was very strong, so we stayed out of the river mostly. Our fish came in some eddy water near the main channel and the keeper crappie came from one dock.

Strike King Slabalicious lures in black/blue with Chartreuse tail was best lure. We fished them on 1/16 oz lures. This is the first time that I have fished this lure and I do like the looks of it.

Old man winter arriving next week so I guess this is it for me for a week or so. I’m longing for the day that tva stops spilling water through all the flood gates on the entire system. I have never seen a fall and winter like this one before.
