You couldn't ask for a better weekend...

Well, if the fish were biting it could have been a little better.

I met Joshuall and his buddy at Percy Priest yesterday morning, and had
already picked up Robby at K-Mart. Josh was down from Chicago and wanted to
meet at 6:00am. The weather was absolutely beautiful with clear skies and 70
degree weather. We fished until about 2:00pm before I had to leave. Only
caught one bass and a rock bass, both taken on a powerworm, but missed a
good fish on three different occasions. Robby switched over to bream and
crappie for the last hour of the day and was doing pretty well.

Everything was tight to cover/structure as I would have expected for a clear
day, and there were a TON of other anglers out. The crappie guys were
everywhere too, but they were having a better day than us bassers.

Water temps started in the 50's and before noon had climbed up to 60 degree.
The water was as clear as I think I've ever seen it. The bass should be
getting ready to spawn any day now. As long as they don't raise the lake...
they'll be very easy to spot.

With the water level down about 6', I've really discovered how much I enjoy
having a good GPS with lake detail. We were able to run way up river without
incident. Sometimes, being 5' off course would have ended the day and left
me trolling back the 10 miles back to the ramp. Unfortunately, one guy found
out the hard way. We could hear the damage from a half mile away. Hopefully
he had an extra prop on board.

Next week is Center Hill!

Oh yeah... next Sunday at 1:00 central, OLN is showing the FLW event on Old
Hickory.
