You can throw it anytime but it is hard to throw that 30 foot leader that is needed to get down deep enough this time of year. Not to mention the increased chance of catching a jet ski, joy boater or tuber on the water. I have yet to see one of them brave enough to play in the water at Dale Hollow in December when it is a balmy 50 degree water temps.

We honestly seen a kid on a jetski 2 winters ago in january riding around close to the marina at conely bottoms. It was cold adn this kid was out riding it around. And i too am looking forward to the FNF season coming up. I cant wait....

HOLD ON, NOW LET'S NOT RUSH IT??
I'm age 65 and HOLDING, let's just take our time and enjoy ALL the fishing seasons . Fall/Winter, ETC, and FNF will be here in due time.

Get off the couch, grab a box of jigs and hit the lakes (Dale or where ever) and "tease the smalliers) at night!....

134 days left until December 1, 2010 and the FNF season will officially begin. 138 days left until the 28th Annual Horse Creek Billy Westmoreland Memorial Smallmouth Invitational that will be held at Horse Creek Marina December 4th and 5th. I am not going to say the relevance of this event for I will leave that to Catchemall but WE do plan on hanging another plaque on the wall right next to last years plaque and become 2 Time, I said 2 TIME, did I mention 2 TIME CHAMPS OF THIS EVENT!!!!

Got to go now and give my FNF rods a little love and attention

Elwood as much as I like the above statement there is one thing we need to change. This year you can catch the big fish on day one and I will get it on day two so we can take our pics with 4 plaques instead of three.

I have a much better idea: You catch 2 overs and 2 - 15 inchers on day 1, we will sleep in late on Sunday - go have a big breakfast about 10am and head to the weigh in and take our chances.

On second thought, I am not giving up a day of FNF fishing on Day 2, you catch 2 overs and 2 unders on Day 1 ( I will play netboy for all 4 fish) then we will fish just as hard on Day 2 just for the pure enjoyment factor. Day 2 will be a lot less stressful than last year because when you put the over in the boat around 10am and I put the under in the boat a bit later, I was stressed to no end hoping my old heap would make it back the 22 miles to the marina without breaking down.
