I gave Chris fishinvol on here a shout to see if he had time to restore my confidence in Chickamauga Lake yesterday. I always seem to be struggling on the Chick... the best days I have had are with Rogne for size and Chris for numbers. Too dumb to find them on my own I guess. Chris was available yesterday afternoon so I met him at HBSP.

Chris didn't disappoint... wind blowing and rain coming we didn't go too far from the ramp but started catching fish right off the bat. I didn't keep score but I am pretty sure I smoked Chris on numbers and he beat with on size.. :)

I am sure we caught at least a dozen fish in the short time we were out and it was certainly a mixed bag of fish... I may miss a species here but we caught, perch, yellow bass, crappie, catfish, TWO gars and a few LM bass.

I will attempt to post pics below of the three best.... Didn't weigh them but I would say the biggest was pushing 6 with one maybe 4 and one maybe 3.... a few others that were keeper size and a lot of short fish.

Thanks Chris for a great afternoon on the lake... always a great guy to go out with... It was entertaining. Never saw two gars and catfish caught on the same trip on a rattle trap.

If you struggle like me shoot Chris a PM... he will find some fish for you.

Greg

Nice fish, sounds like a good trip! I went out with chris back in the fall when the frog bite was starting to get good, had a great time and he put us on fish quick. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a trip
 
Dude, Glad you got on some! It can be tough down there. I went down there the day before yesterday and sucked it up. Went to the area I know better yesterday and caught 13 keepers on the trap. Trap bite is ON!
 
Thanks Greg ! Had blast. Greg poor mouths himself about how he can't catch fish, but I've fished with him twice now and I haven't seen the problem ! Hammered em both times.
 
It helps when you are around fish... still laughing about those gars... that stick that jumped out of the water. Lol.
 
Chris is on um'. With him on vacation this week and has clients every day this week, I think we are all fishing for second place this weekend at the CFF. emoWorthy I will predict he will be the winner this weekend. emoTongue Jmax
