Cannon Posted August 11, 2018 Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 I am new to fishing the east TN area and so far have not done to well. Nothing over 2Lbs. I know the fish are here but you use some advise on tactics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing over 2Lbs. I know the fish are here but you use some advise on tactics. I assume you’re fishing Watauga??? Focus on points, offshore humps, and laydowns right now. Little jig and a Ned rig will be good for smallmouth. Worm, lizard, or creature bait to rigged for largemouth. Either should work for spots. Also, crank a big plug like a 6xd or a dd22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
