Multispecies catches dominate October trips on Lake Chickamauga

Slow Day

October 25, 2025

We worked hard to put 17 crappie onboard today, but only 8 were keepers. Also caught a few bass, and lost a catfish at net. All fish were caught tightlining live minnows over brushpiles in 16-24 FOW. Pushing and pulling jigs and crankbaits wasn't successful as the fish weren't roaming, but hanging tight to structure.

Wind on the Water

October 11, 2025

Gusty winds kept us off our preferred spots today, but we managed to take some bass, drum, and 9-10 inch crappie in the more sheltered areas. Water temps are falling and the fall bite is ahead.

Mixed Bag

October 10, 2025

Tough fishing today. Worked hard to put 12 crappie onboard, but only 5 keepers. Additional catches included largemouth bass, white bass, yellow bass, catfish, and bluegill. Fishing will improve as the water cools.

Bass and Crappie

October 7, 2025

A tough bite in-between rain squalls and gusty winds kept us in protected, sheltered locations. However, we managed to boat several largemouth and white bass , 8 crappie, and a channel catfish. Most were caught trolling crankbaits and jigs set to run at 12- 16 foot depths. All fish were released. **hidden content**

Mixed Bag

September 12, 2025

A mixed bag, but generally a very slow day in Chickamauga with with several crappie, 1 largemouth bass, 2 white bass, 1 small drum, and several yellow bass. In addition, we lost one big bass which broke the line, then jumped and threw the crankbait so at least we got a chance to see him. Water temperature 81 and will get hotter next week so we might have to wait awhile for crappie fishing to pick up.
