Appreciate it
Chick
:D
Thanks. Definitely a true "game changer"...
Installed the heavy duty troll jacket and cut down the Mega 360 shaft, much better looking!
Broke in the new Z520R livewell and the Mega Live this week too. Got my fourth DD, 10lb even and had a...
Thanks
Appreciate it

Took delivery last month on my new rig - a 2022 Ranger Z520R pulled with a 2022 F250 Platinum.
Got it loaded up with:
- Ultrex with built-in SI
- Mega 360
- Mega Live
- Apex 19 at the console...
Hey, don't knock the boonie hat! LOL
Yes and yes. :cool:
Appreciate it sir!
Caught my third ever DD this week, a 10lb 12oz bug eyed beast! She was 25.5" L × 20G and she anchored a 37lb 4oz bag I had that day. I also had a 8lb 12oz, 7lb 8oz, 6lb 4oz and 4lb. Watched her...
Nice!
Thanks! Yes sir, it was a beast of a smallie. Even though it's my new PB smallie, I'm going to wait until I break that 7lb mark to get another smallie replica...
Yeah, I'm already itchin' to get back up there! LOL
Thanks, it's an awesome lake for sure!
Man, what a trip!
Been going up to LSC for almost 15 years now every spring and this years trip was my best to date. Fifty (yes 50) smallies that were 5lb or bigger, five of which were 6lb or...
Time on the water is the best teacher, you can only learn so much from the internet/YouTube/etc.
Thanks everyone.
These last few trips have been nuts - I've caught a 10lb 4oz, 9lb 4oz, 8lb 8oz, 7lb 4oz and the rest were 6lb or smaller.
I hope I can keep this momentum going!
LOL! Just 3oz off...
Just like him, I'm holding back pictures to teach everyone a lesson... LOL!
Appreciate it sir. Heading back down in a week or two, can't wait...
Yes sir, I always turn them loose. I have actually caught three now that weighed exactly 9lb 4oz from Chick (and all 3 of the 9lb 4oz's were on the same bait!).
...
Yes sir, guides were freezing up in the morning.
Got another good one this week, a 9lb 4oz tank from Chick! Thought I had my third DD when she hit the net, but she was a couple of gizzard shad in the belly shy of it. She had a huge mouth like a...
Powerful message by Paul Washer that sums it all up below. Only 17 minutes, listen carefully....

Thanks. My PB is 12lb 8oz
Got the second DD of my life this week, a 10lb 4oz TN pig from Chick! She hit right at the boat, so I was able to watch it all go down (as my heart exploded in my chest). She was built like a tank,...
What rustedhook said, go over to BBC...
Love my 360/Solix 15 combo, you won't be disappointed.
Good luck!

Thanks for the update
I'm going to hit it hard the next few years to try and get a teener from there, but if I notice a decline in the fishing I'll be looking for a new trophy lake to hit....
Not good..... :mad:

That's awesome Geo! I couldn't imagine fishing that much in a 6 week period.
I haven't been to Dale in years, I need to get back down there sometime...
Good deal
Let us know how ya'll do
I can neither confirm or deny that statement..... :cool: ;)
Yeah, it's a cool lake and loaded with DD's.
I've been busy too, we're building our new house now and have been so busy with that and haven't had the boat out since May....! I've got the itch...
Thanks. Yes sir, 15lb 3oz is the current record. There's definitely a new state record swimming in there, just a matter of time before it gets broken. With all the pressure it's getting the big...
Yes sir, looking for that TN state record.... I wouldn't mind breaking my PB either! It's going to be hard to top my trip back in 2016, 35lb limit one day, 34lb 8oz limit another day and on the...
Thanks for the update.
I haven't been there in over a year. Might hit it for a couple days when it cools down some more, but other lakes are calling my name...lol.
Nice. I haven't been there in a very long time, might have to hit it again this summer. I agree, hope they don't draw it down again and kill the grass....
I went the 18th -21st and it was a grind. Lot's of FLW boats on the water practicing. I still managed a 7lb, 6lb, 5lb and a couple of huge stripers.
The 7lb I caught in front of a couple FLW...
There are plenty of places to stay around the lake, it just depends on what part of the lake you plan on fishing. Be prepared for a zoo on the water. As long as another monsoon doesn't come through...
I got the 3 year license for $55 and saved a few bucks so I'm good for another year.
I don't know if I'll even renew it, been spending a ton of time on lakes out of state...
I would stay away from Interstates...
I've got (4) NorthStar/X2 AGM 31 series in mine.
Another toad caught at Chick yesterday, 14.2lb. Crazy!
That 15lb and change TN state record ain't gonna hold up for too much longer...!
Hat's off to him for releasing her.
...
I heard about him a long time ago with the issue he had with the pain meds. He's a good guy, I've talked to him many times when I'd be getting breakfast at the One Stop and at the Louisville Boat...
I wonder what the cost of that land is?
Ouch. Had a buddy there yesterday, was tough for him too...
Good deal, but I'm afraid it's too little too late...
It was the FLW BFL Hoosier divison
Thanks, appreciate it.
I had a Etec 250 H.O. on my 2009 Z520 and loved it. It was super quiet and I never had any major issues with it (it had almost 600 hours on it when I traded it in....), so...
