Lunched at Farragut around noon and fished the south end of the lake until about 4:00. It was a cool, overcast day and most of the other boats were also fishing, so that was nice. It can get awfully c...

Last year, Hayden Lake was just on fire. Limits most every time I went out, taking me 5-6 hours typically to finish. But man, this year I'm struggling. On the water yesterday from 8:30am to 4:30pm ...

Fished from about 10am until 5ish. It was a tough day, I couldn't seem to figure out what they wanted. Everything seemed to work mediocre, nothing was really banging them. Occasionally I'd find a scho...
