Eclipse
 

How many of you plan on fishing through the eclipse?

I was going to but thought it might be super crowded at the two places I was wanting to go to. Sounds like it will be a zoo on the roads tomorrow.

Headed to Center Hill. Yaks are loaded. 2 dozen live crawdads. And an Xrap tied on.

The ZOO !! <'TK><
 

LOL, don't go to Kroger...funny talking people with bad manners acting like complete idiots before a snow storm.

I always do my Kroger grocery run on Sunday afternoon. I went yesterday and it was no different than any other Sunday except for the one Japanese couple that were speaking Japanese. Traffic this morning into Nashville was a breeze. I wish the traffic into Nashville was like this everyday!!

Amen to that! getting on 440 from mt. Juliet didnt have to hit my brakes one time. Loving it! ofcourse im sure leaving tonight will be gridlock! lol

Mmmmmm .. <'TK><
 

Guess its just on this side of the river...on another note, I only had 11 show up for work today out of 150+, ended up calling the job...anyone with any sense stayed home.

That was one of the coolest things I've ever witnessed. Prefect weather here at the office.

You have been in the dark for so long I am surprised you noticed the eclipse.

That was really cool. I fished JPP this morning. I left around 1130 because the heat was bad and there were just as much boat traffic as a holiday weekend. I didn't want to leave as the bass bite had just started getting good around 1030. On a side not it was awesome how the heat and humidity just disappeared for that 15 minutes or so during the eclipse. Hope all you guys got to see it bc I wasn't personally excited about watching it but my dad was very excited. I got to his shop around 1245 and the next hour spent watching the eclipse with him just made my day and his.

I can finally say I have experienced the "Dark Side of the Moon...the Great Gig in the Sky" , if any of you guys know what I mean.

Someone called into 104.5 radio who was on the water and said the stripers/hybrids started busted at the surface right at totality. Not sure what lake he was on, guessing JPP.

Up around bledsoe it happened too, acres of shad flipping out the water being chased by whites and stripes right when it got dark, bats were even coming out flying around the water like it was sunset pretty cool, next one is in 2024 and we will have totality around reelfoot lake and the Mississippi.

Center Hill. Nothing changed from last Wednesday except after eclipse bait balls went deep and saw no top action not even gar. Insects and birds hushed in the back of The creek and saw a group of wood ducks fly over. 10 minutes after totality the insects started again. My chickens laid the least amount of eggs since 15 a day in spring got 6 eggs.

That did not happen at Tims Ford.

I fished the river during the eclipse. I was throwing topwater like crazy....no takers. :o

No pics?
 

I was sure someone would have taken a pic of the event. Here's the only decent pic I got.

WOW! Haven't heard from you in more than a year and now you show up after this phenomenon. Should we expect to hear from you again in 2024?

Good to know you are still around.

Awesome shot. I loved seeing all the pictures of the eclipse.

Yeah I'm still alive but don't do much fishing anymore. Sold my boat to a member on this forum last year, and didn't even get a license till a few weeks ago so I could fish with one of my coworkers. I still lurk here from time to time to see how you guys are doing though.
