This was one for the books for sure. We had food for 20 people for sure. I wasnt hungry once all weekend for sure.
Friday started out rough. We went to Wildcat and the water was about perfect, but I was having fuel issues and it took forever to get up to the narrows. I fished down towards the ramp, catching a few small fish then decided to load the boat up to figure my issue out and found the fuel filter housing was disgusting, and the fuel filter(pictured) was clogged. The filter was unavailable locally so my friend dustin soaked it in acetone while I cleaned the housing out and we slapped it back together. The guys moved to rim shoals in the mean time so I went down there and fished solo and really whacked them. I had several back to back catches and a couple triples even. Friday night we had @LittleRedFisherman amazing catfish and @JestersHK cooked some awesome backstrap. I had some of my local friends come down and we had a great time.
Saturday started out as a lazy day. Rick cooked the absolute best breakfast, pan fried back strap and for sure the best fried taters ever. It was raining pretty hard and no one was feeling like doing anything with the rain so we sat around until it more or less quit then went to white hole and motored the 6 miles up to the dam to fish(below the closed section). fishing was spotty, best fish we caught all day were two basically identical 16"-ish browns.
Sunday @JestersHK and I went to the state park and the river is empty, which was way better than saturday. We launch and use the trolling motor to go across and immediately start catching fish and nailing them for a couple hours before they got hip to our game and quit biting. Overall great time.
