Took these shots today of a nice spot on Barkley but I could not seem to get them to bite at all. I tried drop shots, jig, jerk baits, rattle traps, spoon, carolina rig, and crankbaits.
56degree water in a channel right next to 3' of water in the mouth of a cove. Did not have a whole bunch of time to really fish since I was just trying to make sure all my fishing equipment is ready for this weekend.
Holy Hell do I wanna go fishing after seeing that!!!!!!
Jiggin' spoon!!!
yeah right, that is cool though. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/boardstuff2/beers.gif
crappie
Now I just have to figure out how to get those bad boys to bite!!
I have been down here 2 weeks and this is only the second time I could get out. Now that I got a new vehicle that I can tow with its ON!!!
oooo that first one looks like a ball of shad getting blasted. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/boardstuff2/beers.gif
Good looking pics. Should have pulled the side scan out and you could have read their name tags.
http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif Geez man!!!!!! That's the jackpot! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/bows.gif
I'd be freaking out if I saw that on the graph! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif But that's a sight you'll never see at Cave Run... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/ohwell.gif ...pretty sweet though! http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthup.gif

Great pics though. I knew I shoulda saved for color. http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthup.gif http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthup.gif
Ok, the second one I can make out the arches but how the hell do you tell what the first one is? I've never learned how to read my finder right. Usually just use it for depth and water temp.

The first one is the best one, Bait and Bass. They are feeding and Billy was right on top of them. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/boardstuff2/beers.gif

I would have not known that without you saying that either. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/ohwell.gif Looks like I need to learn how to read mine better as well.

The diagonal lines are what tells you they are feeding.
The first image was where I drifted over the fish really slow which was causing the arches to look bigger than they actually are. The second image was me moving over top of them at a faster speed showing actual representation of the fish.
At first I thought it might be crappie but the arches look too big and I would not expect the bass to be all bundled up like that. Going back today with my crappie baits so I can find out if it is.
Diagonal lines usually represent fish moving to feed or the trail from your bait coming through the sonar cone. In this case I did not have any baits out at the time of the picture.

http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/roll.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/roll.gif Yup!
Must be drum . If I were there I could tell you, I could be the DRUM KING on Barkley http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/embarassed.gif
Sensitivity set too high http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eyes.gif turn it down and the arches will disappear http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif
