Old Hickory Tilapia

Posted on November 28, 2017 by troyleebasso

I could not stop myself from heading out to Old Hickory Lake, to chase those darn Tilapia, on Saturday morning. I had the pleasure of fishing with a father and son duo who just wanted to catch a few fish. They were not disappointed.

We left flippers at about 630 am and were fishing by 645 am. The bite was steady but not frantic like it will be after a couple weeks of cold weather. The high point of the day was a 3.4 pound Tilapia.

We were giving my B’N’M crappie wizard spinning rods a test drive, and they passed with flying colors.
