Smallmouth Fishin’ the Canal

Mike's 4 lb. Brozeback

Mike Walker and I fished with shad minnows at the point at the canal between Tellico and Ft. Loudoun. We got shad minnows in the first cove on the left heading upstream on Loudoun from the dam. We caught 26 smallmouth. It was amazing – we caught a couple of 3 pounders, a couple of 2 & ½ pounders and a couple of 2 pounders. Mike caught a 4 lber on the opposite point (on the launch parking lot side).
