With the move to TN comes an unexpected opportunity. There are a bunch of fish here that I have never fished for, or caught.
I usually chase big cats, hybrid stripers, crappie, and bluegills. But, I see that there are also big stripers, walleye and sauger, yellow perch, and smallmouth bass available here.
I'm not much on freezing when I fish, but I am open to getting started on some of these before long!

Good thing someone didn't mention the thousand miles of quality trout fisheries in East Tennessee which is year round

P.S. Durn I was fat back then! 😂

I have no interest in trout, except to use them as bait for Stripers. So, no worries!

Good! They got the little ones for sale at Big Fish Outfitters.

Somewhat bothers me to this day that TWRA allows a fish that you have to pay extra to fish for to be used as bait. Kinda like killing deer and letting it lay in hopes to shoot a coyote IMO.

WELCOME to east TN BTW.
