Trip Summary

After a cold (26 degree) start, we had a good trip on Chickamauga today with over 30 fish landed and released. The bulk of the catch was crappie, white bass, and striped bass. Three of the largest crappie were within 1/4 inch of earning Wes TARP certifications. Most fish were taken pushing or pulling tandem cranks and jigs. Surface water temperatures were around 50 degrees.
