Bass from Lake Chickamauga

I had a good day fishing Lake Chickamauga near Chattanooga Tennessee with Jeremy York but it was frustrating. He had been catching lots of big bass on the Picasso Bait Ball Rig he designed but they are pretty much off that pattern. He did get one nice 4.5 pound bass on it.

All day we watched big bass in the shallows starting their beds but they were skittish and would not bite.  They would not stay on the bed, kept moving off.

The lake should be wide open for bedding bass fishing in the next few days.
