BOB ALSIP AND I WENT AFTER SOME NICKAJACK, CHICKAMAUGA TAIL WATER RIVER SMALL MOUTH TODAY. WE GOT STARTED AROUND 12:30 AND FINISHED UP AT DARK. WE HIT THE BANKS FOR THE FIRST FEW HOURS WITH A LITTLE SUCCESS. WE WERE AFTER QUALITY NOT QUANTITY. THEN WE MOVED OUT DEEPER AND HAD A NICE COUPLE OF HOURS TO FINISH THE DAY WITH SIX SMALL MOUTH ALL IN THE FOUR + POUND RANGE. FOUR CAME ON A BIG SPINNER BAIT AND ONE ON A CRANK BAIT. THE FIRST PIC IS A PIG THAT BOB CAUGHT THAT WEIGHTED 4.70 LBS. BUT ONLY MEASURED 18.5 INCHES!
