Today was a great day, all around... Went fishing with my dad and my son at Cumberland Mountain State Park. We rented a jon boat with a trolling motor for 4 hours and went out, excited to see what this water held!
Even though we had a trolling motor, my son INSISTED that he be able to row, too...
We got into quite a few fish early, but the bite died off around 1:30.
The fall colors are just starting to come in.....beautiful.
I promised I'd chart the lake with my depth finder, and I did what I could. We found the channel and the deepest part of the lake... Also marked some LARGE fish that I could not get to play ball. Here's a ROUGH sketch of the lake contours.
All in all, an AWESOME day, great fun was had by all, and we have some great pictures for the wall.
Thanks for reading.
