Chickamauga has been a ton of fun recently! The cooling water has them really starting to feed up as they transition into their fall patterns. We are catching a ton of fish on topwater baits with some good quality mixed in! Go to reedthewater.com or contact me at (423) 203-0558 if you want to get in on the action!

We had an amazing week on the water last week, and topped it all off by boat flipping a 9.28 Behemoth!!! This July has been one of the best I’ve ever seen on the Tennessee River and I can’t wait to see what August has to offer! We’re averaging over 30 fish a trip with great quality mixed in!

Had a great week on Chickamauga last week! We averaged over 30 fish on every trip, with our best trip having over 60 bass!

This video is a prime example of what makes the Tennessee River so magical in the summer time! With the spawn wrapping up throughout the entire Tennessee River System, and temperatures getting warmer by the day. The fish are making their way offshore and will congregate together in massive schools like this one to gorge themselves with food to replenish the energy and nutrients they used during the spawn. The next couple of weeks are going to be prime time to be out there chasing them! Come experience what has made the Tennessee River one of the hottest summer time destinations for fishermen all over the country for many years now!

Life threw a few curveballs at me last week, but I didn’t let it slow me down! After navigating through a little chaos off the water, we were able to get out on Chickamauga and create some chaos of our own! We’ve had great numbers, with some good quality mixed in every single day! With a lot of fish wrapping up spawning, more and more fish are beginning to move offshore for the summer. Over the next couple of weeks, there will be new schools of fish showing up every day and the schools that are already out are just going to continue to grow! You can stop by Talkin' Tackle to get the baits that we are using, and one of us can show you exactly how we are rigging them, to give you the best possible chance at success! If you want to get out and experience the peak of Tennessee river ledge fishing before they get too educated, contact me at (423) 203-0558 or go to reedthewater.com and book a trip today!

Went looking around with a friend yesterday, and ended up landing on them! We caught them every cast for a little while on multiple different schools of fish! The ledge bite is really starting to heat up out there! Go to reedthewater.com or contact me at (423) 203-0558 to book a trip and get in on the best bite of the year!

The most magical time of the year on the Tennessee river is here! The ledge bite is getting better by the day and it is an absolute blast! This is one of the best bites of the year, and my personal favorite. If you’ve never experienced ledge fishing on the Tennessee river then you are missing out! Contact me at (423) 203-0558 or go to reedthewater.com and come experience it for yourself!

Chickamauga has been a ton of fun recently! The fish are in all different stages right now, but what excites me the most is that there are some offshore schools starting to show up! Ledge fishing can be hands down the most exciting and action packed time of the year to be on the water!

My first few days back on the water after taking some time off to spend with my wife and our new baby have gone pretty well to say the least! The fish are on the bank and more are moving up every day! If you want to get out and catch a few, go to reedthewater.com or contact me at (423) 203-0558 to book a trip!
