Todd Trivett and his Dad, Jerry, came down from Knoxville for a Scenic City Fishing voyage today. It was a "hunt & peck" sort of day. The drift bite for catfish is lackluster at best. There's a few key spots holding some decent fish, but only one (I know about) that is consistently holding quality fish. If that hole dries up on me, I'm in trouble. emoEek <br /><br />We had to use our patience pills today. But it paid off with six or eight quality fish in the 10 to 25 lb. range, and a goodly number of eaters scattered here and yon. I'd say we easily passed 150 lbs. of fish in a six-hour day. Can't complain about that.<br /><br />We also enjoyed a 30-minute "ultralight break" when MrWhiskers put us on a goggle-eye hole. We didn't find the goggle-eye, but we found a passle of good bluegill, a couple of spots and a couple of cats that pushed the ultralight rods to the limit. And that means life is good and gettin' better every day!<br />
