    Are smallies plentiful at Tillery? I have never caught one but want to.

    No, not at all. They come out of a smaller, shallow river in the winter to feed. It's all about being in the right place at the right time.

    I am not sure of the name of it Zooker but I think it is last major cove/creek on the left before you reach the tillery dam

    Re: Personal Best Smallmouth (fiupntballr)

    Once again, Rodney P takes the older... uhhhh..senior..... uhhhhhhh...more experienced anglers out on their home lake and spanks them. This time it appears to me he showed no mercy.



    Great smallie Rodney. I'd love to hang one down here. I always go to Philpott for the SM bite.

    Discipline is the key, if you can't hack it, pack it!

    He pulled a lot harder than the 5 lb bass I caught a couple weeks ago.
