My son and I were at the GSP on Christmas day from about 11:30 - 1:30. Was 4 other boats in the channel all within sight of the plant. My fishfinder battery went dead on me so i can't tell you what the temperature was. We talked to a couple of the boats and they were struggling (as were we) to get fish in the boat. We saw a few Skip's get caught as well as a few (I assume White Bass.)
It's tough driving 9 hours to get here only to get skunked, but we are getting used to it. We never got a bite. Will try it again on Thursday morning. Will head over to the Cumberland Power plant next week sometime next week.
We were hoping to get some Skip Jack here at the GSP A big Catfish or Striper would have been nice too. Heck a Carp would have at least cleaned the skunk off the boat! LOL. My son was throwing store bought Sabiki rigs and I was throwing 1/8 jigs with 2" curly tails of varying colors. Also tried a Foley Spoon with no luck.
If any of you could offer us a tip or two I would be much obliged.
We will be in a 1860 Center Console G3. It's not hard to spot as it has a dozen rod holders mounted all around it. If you see us feel free to stop over and say hi.
