jjellison, Nickajack, MONSTER Blue Cats, NEW PERSONAL BEST at 81 lbs!!!, Month of October, Solo
The month of October produced some big fish and great memories. I am impressed with our fishery in the TN River, and more importantly, the safe angling techniques used to preserve our trophy fish. I always practice C.P.R. fishing (Catch, Photo, Release) so other anglers can have the chance to catch the fish. I have been nailing the big ones with higher flow (approx. 45,000-50,000 cfs); however, the 81 lb GIANT came in about 25,000 cfs. My bait selection was cut skipjack. I have been having great success with skipjack heads. I typically do better in the Fall using skipjack heads. Enjoy the pics and be sure to watch the videos here. FISH TO LEARN, FISH FOR LIFE!
