Saw this article about smallmouth/spotted bass hybrids changing regulations. Here is a link to the article https://newschannel9.com/sports/outdoors/twra-proposes-dramatic-change-in-smallmouth-bass-limits-in-tennessee-fishing-fishermen-anglers?fbclid=IwY2xjawIDSmFleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHVaj7XqGYxXI_Eu15xR0DDAKTNU-NCp5rfvZ2HzDsCGCLaWv2lY1pu5FOA_aem_hJk6xj5F5iHqy3VR3JJGFw

Why did Bill leave the site? Since we are not coming down this year I have not been checking in as often and missed what happened. Just went to his page and it says last visit is just now. 🤷‍♂️

Phillip Stone and Pete Wenners are probably in the running I would think.

Just wanted to say Merry Christmas to everyone!! Hope you all had a great one!!

RIP. Too many people passing away lately.

So in the pdf all the yellow highlighted stuff is legal to fish? I know there is a gas dock and restaurant in the yellow highlighted area on the left side in the first pic.

The docks I saw being fished were in the first picture of the pdf. It was the docks on left side of the picture and they were fishing a little over half of the way back to all the way back. All those docks have the big red commercial no fishing signs. Are those legal to fish?

I stand corrected I guess. I thought those docks with the big red sings saying commercial no fishing actually meant you couldn’t fish. Hmmmm Bill: can you point me to the regulations saying we can actually fish them?

Question about the derby if you don’t mind. Were the commercial docks with the red no fishing signs off limits for the high school tournament? If so it is amazing how many adults are teaching the kids it is perfectly ok to cheat in a tournament! I personally saw numerous high school boats fishing the commercial docks at Kimberling City. Saw 2 cast into the slips with the boat sitting directly in front of the sign. Bad part is I actually only looked when letting dogs out of the camper or unloading/loading the boat; so who knows how many others I didn’t see. Now wether I agree with those docks being off limits is a whole other thread in itself.

Tried to send a PM but it says you can't receive messages for some reason. Anyway; Wife and I will be in Kimberling City starting this Friday until the morning of the 11th. Do you still want me to bring my Dek-it mount along for you? If so send me a message with your number and I will get ahold of you to figure out when/where to get it to you. Dave

I am just fine with it being known you are the one at fault. LOL

Have you ever seen it not storm while we are there? Yeah funny to since you actually like fishing in the dang rain. LOL

The part in bold is because the wife and I will be coming down end of next week. Seems to always storm while we are there.

If it somehow ends up being last weekend of April or first weekend in May; the wife and I will be there and would love to fish it.

I will try and remember to bring it along and let you know for sure when we will be there.
