My dad and I decided to do Cumberland yesterday ourselves. I haven't bass fished Cumberland in probably 15 years but we were itching to try FNF on a smallmouth fishery. We had a very slow day -- we only had two bites but we landed both and they were good fish. My dad caught a smallie that was about 3.5 lbs on the second point we fished in the morning. About noon or so I had the second bite and hauled in a 6.25 lb smallie which is the second biggest smallie I have ever caught. Beautiful fish and man what a fight on a 10' noodle rod! We fished various jigs throughout the day too but didn't do any good except for FNF. Bottom line is we stuck with main lake points and I don't think the areas we covered had a lot of fish relating to them. Fishing the big lakes out west is so different -- you see fish and shad on the graph all of the time on the big lakes where on Cumberland sometimes it can be a challenge to even graph them. Great day to be out and I look forward to trying FNF again soon.
