floated the elk below tims yesterday. me and a buddy boated 70-80 fish. he caught a 23inch brown and I landed a 19inch brown. had a few in the 14-15 inch range. but the most fish went 8-11 inched and had a few as small as 4-5 inches. caught a lot of browns. more then the last time I fished there.

also seen lots of lamprey's. they where on the carp all over the place. I also caught a 15-16inch brown with one on it. we killed it.

Next time kill it and put it on a hook and drift it where some BIG browns might be and see what happens. Might be surprised.

Sounds like a great trip.

Those Lamprey's are some weird looking things.

I think the Carp/Buffalo fish are spawning right now. They are EVERYWHERE in shallow water on the Harpeth right now. If you are in to bow fishing or gigging, now's the time.

Man you ain't kidding. I was on the harpeth yesterday. I could have shot a couple hundred arrows!
