Jerry, Chickamauga, bass, CRAPPIE, & cats, 9/30/2009, Coco & Jake
#1
It’s fall again and time for the bass and crappie to enter the creeks. My sweet wife, Coco, and my dog, Jake, joined me today and for 4 hours we caught bass and BIG crappie. But I don’t know if I’ll take Coco with me again because she caught the really big fish. She caught a 5 1/2 pound bass that was 21 1/2 inches long, a 5 pound catfish, and THREE TARP CRAPPIE—including one that was 15 7/8 inches long and two others at 14 1/4 and nearly 15 inches. One of these “smaller” ones was about the broadest crappie I’ve ever seen. (All of the fish are still swimming in the river.)<br /><br />The main channel was very wind blown and choppy. So, we kept to the creek channels, fishing 16 to 20 feet deep with a water temperature of 73 degrees. We trolled 1/4 and 1/2 ounce Bombers and ended up catching most everything on Fire Tiger color. It was a beautiful day leaving us with really good memories.<br />
