    Angry Bob and I are tryin' to put a trip to Tenn. together for 2010. Any and all are welcome to join us or just simply to offer suggestions.

    Bob, refresh my memory please, did we decide on the time of year yet? I know we were talkin' about the spring...

    wow! talk about planning ahead. i can't tell ya what i'll be doing 3 days from now, let alone 3 years (although "bass fishing" would be a fairly safe answer, Lord willin' Big Grin<!--graemlin::D-->). i guess a lot could change with my fishin' holes between now and then, but if y'all were just a little flexible with your schedule and gave me just a little notice, i might could fix it where y'all have access to some trophy largemouth fishin', and a shot at the biggest green bass either of ya have ever caught. if not, i hope y'all have a safe trip down here and good luck with the redneck smallies.

    I think we can do better Pete. This place doesn't look like it's on the water. Would be nice to have a place with a boat house so we could leave the boats in the lake for the week. One less hastle to deal with.

    and good luck with the redneck smallies. Smiler

     

    Hey Paul, are you sayin the fish are redneck or people are redneck? You best say the fish 'cause you are talkin about me if your not. Dale Hallow has some great smallmouth fishing, but the tailwater below the dam is stocked with rainbow and brown trout January through December. Dale Hallow is great, but about an hour and a half away is a great fishing spot. Ft. Loudon Reservoir, Tellico REsivoir, Watts Bar, and Melton hill all meet at the Ft. Loudon Dam. Plus, I - 40 goes right over the dam and three of the lakes. It has some great striper fishing below the dam, and the Bass Master Clasic was once held at Ft. Loudon a few years back. At the upper end of Tellico, there is grerat trout fishing.  Center Hill Resivoir is closer, but it has a very high growth rate for largemouth bass, but it is somewhat by itself, except for Cordell Hull. Well, whatever you decide, have fun and catch some monsters.

    P.S. I caught this one in fort loudon. Sorry ots so small

    One HUGE thing I forgot to mention. The only problem with Ft. Loudon, Tellico, Watts Bar, and the other lakes is that most of the catfish and bass are not safe to eat. Several areas of the lakes are poluted with PCP. I've eaten fish from there all the time with no serious probelms like death, birth defect, etc.

    If you all do Rainy Lake better bring a couple jugs of bug dope. Make sure you post if you all do a meet up there. I sure as heck will do my best to make that one.

    Chris, I am not sure who all will be going with but Bob & I are a go for this trip.  You are more than welcome to join us if you like.  Currently we are checking into lodging in the area, specificly looking for lodging with a dock to keep the boat in the water.  If you do a search, post your results here for all to see!  I am going to post this info in Bassholes web site so Bob will be able to keep informed.

    April you have a good chance for a big-un  , as that is pre-spawn time on the Hollow,have lived and fished here since the beginning of time I think, anyway all the docks offer what you are looking for in accomodations.You can fish Tn. or Ky. depending on which license you have, Cumberland river and the trout are just minutes away. Have a Great Time

    I have'nt had the opportunity to fish Dale Hollow for a couple years but I have a feeling that the 1/4-3/8 oz single colorodo #4 blade orange & brown or crawfish skirt will still get you arm dislocated at the elbow and shoulder. My buddies fish at night there with the spinners fish them like you would a jig reports are best on rocky banks/points shallow to 8-10 ft.
