BASS
With the weather changing it has been hard to pattern bass over the last week. I have actually caught more fish during the colder days. I have also had more luck in the afternoons. Craw-fish colored Strike King Series 3, 4 & 5 crankbaits have been my first choice of baits throughout the day, although jerkbaits have also caught a good number of quality bass. Craw-fish color in the Series 3 crank baits have worked well along rocky banks and should continue to work good throughout the Spring. Jerkbaits with orange belly's have been a good bait over the past several weeks and will continue to be good for a few more weeks. This is a good time of year to catch a big bass in the Pickwick area.

White bass
You should be able to catch white bass on smal white grubs right now and Smaller Strike King crankbaits. The Series 3XD has been catching a lot of Kentucky Bass and white bass in the river below Pickwick Dam. They are schooling in different areas between the Pickwick Dam and Savannah.

Stripers
The river conditions now are not my favorite for stripers but they will be better soon and the stripers should be congregating around the dam any day now.

Sauger
This has been a tough year for sauger. I usually fish with a jig throughout February and mid-March but by April I like to troll small crankbaits along 12-15' of water. If you get in a good area you can catch a lot of fish fast.

Below is for the papers covering gun sales

Gun sales remain strong. This is the first time in 14 years of owning a gun store when sales were as good as they are right now but products in demand are available most of the time.
One of the biggest sellers for me right now is the Ruger LCP custom with the red trigger, it is $229.99 and I have over 100 of them in my Savannah TN store , Talley's Lock and Load on Wayne Rd. AR15's are still in demand.

The newest AR that's out selling the rest for me is from a company called Radical Firearms, it features the heavier grade steal barrel, the heavier full auto bolt (although this is not a full auto), a mid length free floating forearm that is comfortable and with a cool look, a comfortable upgraded Ergo grip, and comes with a Troy battle mag for only $579!

Kimber handguns continue to put sell any 1911 in any area I'm selling them in. As a Kimber Master Dealer in my Savannah Tn and Florence AL location I am receiving Kimber Handguns at a lower price than ever before. I have 3,4&5" 1911 45 two tones for only $699.99. The Stainless II 3,4&5" are only $749.99. A Pro TLE II is only $819.00 with night sights. Micro 380's in two tone or stainless are $499.99.
