Old Hickory Report
On the water at daybreak, 56-57 degrees in main lake, 57-58 in creeks around Cages Bend. Water "stained" with surprising decent visibility. Up approx 1' from normal. Heavy current flow and lots of floaters in the main channel. Caught several short crappie right off the bat in 3' or less on red/black/chart tube jigs. Went bass fishing after that, shallow water and cane grass just starting to get tips green was the ticket. Chatterbait, white with toad trailer. Hammered them for the next couple hours. Best fish 5 lbs even. Could not tell if they were spawned out or had not spawned yet. Chunk bellies but no red tails.
