Did some fishing on Dale Hollow last week, had 3 days of some smallies and large mouth, beached the boat on a rock (see pic) while we were waiting for a tow off the rock caught a 4lb LM.
Then Saturday hit a nest of croppie, had 20 keepers out of 30 caught and could have kept going had not my 84 yr old mom not have to use the bathroom…. She realed one croppie in herself so it made her day!
1st time there, it’s a beautiful place!

Good eatin!

Congrats to you guys on a great outing! Yes I agree, it is a beautiful place! I went on house boat trip there years back, had a blast and we caught a lot of fish! I would definitely go back some day! Good luck and be safe!!

Mostly small minnows, but they were biting anything we threw in the water, from big bass lures to plastics, they were hungry!
