Fishing this weekend

[Guest bdrum419]

I have not had the opportunity to go out and fish the lakes around Brentwood yet. I grew up doing a lot of lake and river fishing in Ohio. I have had the bug for a few weeks now and would really like to get out this weekend. Does anyone have advice on where I should go to do some night fishing from the shore? I dont really care what we fish for but probably just catfish and whatever else. Let me know if anyone has some good tips on where to go and what to use. I am willing to travel up to 30 miles.

Thanks

I would just go out to Percy Priest, maybe of the Smith Springs Rd?

Is this gear for hybrid stripers?

On the jigs or some call them flys, I catch several things on them. You can troll with white grubs or from the bank. I catch crappy/shad/stripers and have got some sauger on them. I like to fish the tail waters with two white flys hanging below a bobber and work the rapids.

I use the Rap to drag over the shoals. Bass/shad/sometimes stripers.

Spinner for bass.
