<br /> I had the great pleasure to take my son Josh fishing today. We wanted to get a few spots for a fish fry. Wouldn&#39;t you know it, we did get a single spot. Overall, the fishing was slow, a fish here and there. We did get a double on the coffer dam at the lock. Mine on a green pumpkin Fat Albert, Josh&#39;s on a TN Shad 200 Bandit. All other fish on the bandit except the largest which came on an H2O (Academy) version of the TN Shad Bandit. It&#39;s a good-running crankbait.<br /> Fished from 2 pm til 7:30. Great weather today, traffic on the river was not too bad. Parking lot was nearly full though. Fished my usual rip-rap banks today. Oh, Josh calls me &amp;quot;Pop&amp;quot;.
