    Priest Lake

    Howdy bass folks. Active duty Marine here traveling from Camp Lejeune to Miramar in San Diego. I figured I stop here in Nashville for a couple of days and fish Percy Priest on the way. Fished this evening for about 3 hours. Caught two just before sunset. One on top water and one on a texas rigged worm. Both were pretty small but I'm definitely not complaining. I'm hoping someone might be able to help me narrow it down a bit. I definitely don't want anyone giving up their secrets but I am looking to eliminate some water. Should I be looking on ledges or points or is there grass in the lake? Anything anyone would be willing to share would be greatly appreciated. I'll be at it again come sunrise. If you see a very yellow skeeter out there, that's me. Thanks in advance.

    Night fishing is much better this time of year. Try main lake points.
