<div>Heath and I suckered Matt into joining us for a scout trip at the dam, he was wearing a disguise for some reason, even running into a co-worker in the parking lot that didnt recognize him and almost pepper sprayed him. LOL (kidding BTW)</div>
I was looking to see if the schoolers, (whites and skips) had arrived yet. There are a few fish, but nothing to get excited about yet.</p>
TVA wasnt running water until 9 so we slept in and got there about 8:15ish to find Sam and Richard showing off for some folks by putting large fish in the boat...while we looked for bait. After the water turned on and we had no bait we played around looking for the right combination to put some fish on the deck with mixed results. A few whites, a LM adn a skip was ll there was. We tried looking for bait once again and caught some gizzard shad that were too large for general use, but good for smallmouth. We poked around until we found the sweet spot and got two in the boat, lost two and Matt also caught 3 LM as well. heath also caught the biggest white bass Ive ever seen at 16.5", ALMOST a TARP.</p>
We still had some fun, the weather was nice and we didnt break anything....or at least not that I am aware of. </p>
