Chris James (Tenncrappie) has been promising me a trip to the upper Hiwassie to fish and today, he made it happen. We launched from boat ramp in Charleston and headed up river. Beautiful place. We didn&#39;t see another boat until about the time that we decided to run back down river. We saw about 4 boats total all morning. <br /><br />All we caught were small fish and brush, but I almost caught a TARP Rock Bass. It was 9.5&quot; long. Between us, we caught 1 white bass, 1 crappie (9&quot
, 3 bluegills, 1 spotted bass, and had 3 times that many bites, probably from small bluegills. It nearly drove me crazy trying to catch these fish. But it was a new experience for me and great fellowship from a good friend. Thanks for taking me fishing today, Chris. When you are ready, I&#39;ll take you on a crappie fishing trip down my way. emoBig
