Old Hickory with Son and Grand Son 10/2/10

About 3-weeks ago I enjoyed a day on Old Hickory with my Son and Grandson. A very nice day with high skies, warm temps and little wind. We caught fish with Spro frogs, Carolina Rigs, Jigs and flukes. The fish in the picture was almost 5#'s and of course, the largest of the day. My son caught it crawling & popping the frog in 2-ft of water over emerging weeds. Really enjoyed the day!

Center Hill Lake - Oct 9, 2010

The weather/conditions have finally made a turn on Center Hill. Went out Saturday afternoon about 2:30 PM and under high bright skies, 85-degree temperatures, water temps of 76 with a slight breeze was able to catch a nice 4.5# Largemouth, a 3# Smallmouth (should have weighed more but had a flat belly) and 2# Spot. They all came within a 100-yards of each other on a non-descript point in 8-12 ft. I was using 17# test Trilene Sensation with a piece of 17# Trilene Flourocarbon leader, a Stan Sloan Football jig (Dale Hollow Shad color) and Zoom green/gold/chartreause trailer.

I also caught a few other spots.
