Had a good day one striper on large swim bait maybe 8 large mouth between me an my buddy on cranks an swim bait. water at the mouth was 55-60 degrees not many top water blow ups IMG_0698.JPGIMG_0697.JPG
Hick is correct. That is a spotted bass, and its a pretty good one for Old Hickory. Nice fish. One goal of mine is to catch a 3lb spot on OH. Ive caught a few just over 2lbs but nothing close to 3
I've caught similar sized Spots on the bluff across from the steam plant this time of year. Hook a shiner in the nose and flip it against the bluff and let it swim around, better have your drag set right is all I can tell ya lol.
