Cory's Massive Bow!! 1st blog Movie

Cory and I had a blast fishing the west fork this day. Cory's rainbow topped it off after we enjoyed a really good cigar to celebrate my engagement to Lynae. We made up big time for the last two skunker fishing trips by catching 20+ trout in a few hours.   

Healthy little 3lber

Pointing out that she is going to spawn this spring.

Pond is full of water and bass! She took a small/mini bass jig with kicker tails

West Fork of the Pigeon River Delayed Harvest


Been doing some great fishing on the West Fork. This Brookie is one of the nicest fish landed recently out of maybe 50 fish caught in the last month. The water is like nowhere else I have ever fished, crystal clear and cold as.. ..yeah


NC Walleye and a fat white bass

Got lucky and was able to pull two nice eater Walleye out of the Little Tenn. River!

Man that's some good eatin!!!

Cory's Walleye caught on a brown/green bass jig.
The Larger fish was about 18in and took a smaller crank bait I use for White bass. And the littler one ate the normal twister jigs with a gloss white grub.
