Default DHL / Obey River

The wife and daughter were out of town past few days. I asked the boys what they wanted to get into, and to Celina we went. We hit Dale Hollow Saturday and I ran into Dave "fishfindergeneral" at horse creek ramp. Very nice guy and he was dead on for a great gill spot close by. The gills were tearin up the white TM twitched in 2'-4' of water. The next morning we put in at Donaldson park at 6 am. First trout were caught at the one-stop bridge overpass on pink TM's. I swapped over to rainbow rapala cranks and the browns seemed to prefer these. Caught 24 in all 3 species but mainly brooks. Hit Caney on the way home, Rome area today and JPP this afternoon but nothing but a few gills and crappie at these areas.

6-8" range. Occasional 9+, we were fishing from 12-6pm and a storm blew through. So we got outta there earlier than I would have liked. Could you send me info on the contact for your hooks for deep water gills?
