I love to fish for anything that bites with my passion being bass and crappie since I grew up fishing KY Lake.
I'm an outdoorsman and moving this time of year has messed up my whole outdoors thing and being inside with no where to go is driving me nuts. I have never fished Old Hickory or Percy Priest before. I am looking for advice on some areas that I can bank fish from preferably on percy priest as I am minutes away (or if anybody wants some company  I'm always willing to chip in my part). I sold my boat this fall to facilitate this moving process so I'm boatless but will be in the market for another very soon (thank you tax man). I've fished a lot of banks and basically will fish for anything that bites at the moment. I know bass are probably deep and its early for crappie to be shallow so I just am seeking advice on where to start looking and visit would be nice. I'm usually duck hunting this time of year but the move has messed that up completely so figure I'll get an early start on fishing.
Thanks for anything. Looking forward to making some acquaintances on here. |
Justin,
I'm also in the Antioch area near Long Hunter Park ramp. I don't do much fishing in the winter, but will pick back up in the spring. I have a 17' pro-craft and have gone by myself a few times. My schedule is tight and I don't get to fish as much as I want, but as time gets near, I will PM you my contact info. I fish primarily for bass & crappie as well. Normally Percy Priest aka "JPP" for crappie in the spring (along with some topwater Striper/hybrid spawning, which is great fun) and bass at Old Hickory (about 20 min drive where I put in from home). I will be in touch.
Scott
