Primey Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 What is a good color for up on the Tennessee River this time of year on Nickajack? Red or Green Pumpkin? Thanks in advance winter fishing is tough, but still fun ? Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted February 15, 2021 Global Moderator Posted February 15, 2021 Ain’t fished nickajack much but I don’t like either one of those colors haha. I’m a purple, black, and/or blue kind of guy. Or any bait that moves I like white 2 Quote
Primey Posted February 15, 2021 Author Posted February 15, 2021 Thanks for info ? We got a club tournament up there and I don't have a clue. ? Appreciate it maybe the fish head spins in white will work with keitech paddle tails. ? Quote

Primey Posted February 15, 2021 Author Posted February 15, 2021 The way its raining here in NGA now and wind blowing wish they would cancel it . lol I am sure it will be tough sledding ? Bad day of fishing still beats a good day of working though. ? Quote

People are catching big smallies up that way but then again they always do, just few and far between for keepers . Also there’s lots of spots up there to maybe fill a limit then go for monsters Quote

I think the big smallies are always biting there but it’s usually 1 or maybe 2 if you’re lucky Quote
