I fish off the bluff city boardwalk about once a weekend and i sometimes see a kayak trolling with planar boards and im always wondering if you're around, Do you ever rrolling around there where Boone meets South Holston?
I'm having twice the luck on the south holston side in Bluff city for striper. Night time with artificial, can't take the heat right now during the daytime hrs. I caught 3 stripes over 20 lb one night right where Hodge Island begins but haven't had any luck since, so been spending all my time in Bluff city. You need to do a video there, troll from the ramp up to the water treatment plant in the cold water.
Enjoyable video. I’ve a week planned for Watauga Lake in a few weeks. I see Bummit’s close, I’ll be visiting the shop. Would you know if they handle leeches?
great stuff again Michael. Always enjoy your adventures.
Thanks, I appreciate it.

You got a lot of fish 🐟
It was a great day.
It seems like there is always bass around those pilings! Nice catches! I thought you would nail a nice brown in there!
Yeah, I was really trying to get something other than bass, but sometimes that’s the way it goes.
Man, smallmouth are such a beautiful fish.
They are, that was a great bonus fish up in the river

Thanks for the info, I’ve been wanting to get up there and try Video.

Unfortunately, they do not have leeches. They do have a great variety of baitfish available. It’s a cash only store so make sure you have cash.
Thanks for that info.
I used too see you fishing from your boat a lot. Any reason you mostly kayak fish now?
The boat is currently not very reliable. There will be more boat adventures soon.
What was the water temp at the flats
No idea. Warm
@@MichaelKaal-TriFisher didn't know if it was cooler up there where the river runs in
Is the lake higher than normal?
I don’t think it’s higher than normal. This is what they call full pool for the summertime recreation. They draw it back down in the winter.
