What anglers said about fishing in Grainger County

we got lucky and had a day where it was 70ยฐ but it tends to be cold lows in the 20s highs in the 40s so just be ready for those if you come in december. trolling is the game as the fish are very spread out but you still catch a ton

Warm summer months can be slow for bass but we were patient and followed instructions. Captain Nathan found fish and we caught several all morning.

It gets really hot in July, so I would recommend a morning trip over an afternoon tripโ€ฆ But with Captain Joe youโ€™re gonna catch either way!

Make sure to check the weather! We had a 4 hour excursion planned, but had to cut it short because of heavy rain. We still caught our maximum allowed to keep in half the time, but the weather cut our 4 hour trip to 2.

Our captain told us that fishing was not as good as usual due to muddy water in the rivers following heavy rain storms recently.

Always remember that this is fishing. Not catching. Nothing is guaranteed.You may not always catch your targeted fish for different reasons. The bite was slow,but, Cody still put us on fish. My boys just couldnโ€™t get a Striper in the boat. They did enjoy the good fight though while they were hooked up.
