Darn catfish
Went to Drakes Creek looking for stripers and hybrids Tuesday afternoon.
Wanted to jig a blade bait like a silver buddy or a jigging rap and see if I could catch white bass, yellow bass, crappie etc. I'd find a group of fish near the bottom and watch my bait on the Livescope. In 10 minutes I caught two blue cats, one was 1 pound, the other about 2 lbs. I believe if I went back there with catfish bait I could have caught fish all afternoon. But, catfish wasn't on the menu for the day. Lot of bait in Drakes but I couldn't find whites, stripers, or hybrids. Trolled my Arigs for a couple hours with NO hits at all, finally called it quits around 4. I found catfish everywhere in Drakes so if anyone likes catfish, I'd imagine some cut bait would catch a boatfull. |
Hybrids in Drakes Creek?? I didn't know there were any hybrids in Old Hickory.

Adrian has posted pictures of hybrids he and his wife have caught on OH lake. I have also caught them below Old Hickory dam so you know some have made it into the locks and gone upstream. |
Awesome.

Hybrids have been below Priest for MANY years so there is not doubt they are below Old Hickory and in Old Hickory.
State record came from below Priest dam in 1998. |
Mmmmm <'TK><
