Took 17.68 to win the Morristown Marine tournament this past Saturday. 6.00 was big largemouth and 5.05 was big smallmouth. Still a lot of storm cleanup going on from Helene. TWRA estimates it to be completed around June. From the map they posted, looks like the bulk of it is above Dandridge.
The 6.00 was a part of the 17.68 bag.
According to website, 187 boats went through blast off.
112 teams weighed 5 fish.
138 teams weighed at least 1 fish.
Leaving 49 teams weighing no fish.
Fished there 2 weeks ago, most of the on water debris is gone but tons of logs, wood , garbage, tires, etc laying on the banks. So as the lake rises and picks that stuff up gonna be a lot more debris on the surface.
They are working everyday to clean it up though, just going to take time.
