It was another awesome weekend for Scenic City Fishing Charters. On Saturday I fished with regular return client Clint Bailey from Middle Tenn. and his Dad, Dwayne. Clint works for Jack Daniels and always tips me with "product." emoBigSmile <br /><br />On Sunday Bryan Sapp and his girlfriend Brittany Kozak came to Chattanooga all the way from Pennsylvania to fish. I had to postpone Bryan and Brittany a month ago when flood gate conditions blew us out. Coming from such a long way away, I was really worried about doing well for them. They went home very happy and are already making plans to return next year. emoApplause <br /><br />We stayed on fish steady both days. This is the "Readers Digest" of what we caught and how:<br /><br />-- Blue catfish and a few channel cats drifting chicken breast in 15 to 50 feet of water. Caught some drifting light tackle in shallower areas, caught others back-trolling in deeper areas.<br />-- Smallmouth and largemouth bass fishing live shiners on very light tackle -- some in key "ambush locations," and some simply drifting rocky sections of river channel in 8 to 15 feet of water.<br />-- Bull bluegill on 32nd oz. jigs tipped with wax worms. Bluegill are still bedding in slackwater areas, but that's bound to end soon.<br /><br />Life is good and gettin' better everyday!<br />
