We have tons of excellent fisheries in Mid-Tennessee but really want to fish Pigeon Forge River and especially The French Broad and the Holston River in 2023 but what such a beautiful place..!!!
Appreciate it Jeff. The Canadian cabin fever is already setting in. It's a close second having you catch the fish instead. Might have to take up Walleye or something just to get myself out there this winter.
I'm heading couple hrs on other side of Richmond this week to River Road jet boats. I'm gonna take a rod never know what you'll see. Good video! Can't wait for my new boat!!
@@TheLittleStuff it's a 17/60 140 Suzuki jet. 3/16 Aluminum 1/2"uhmc on bottom. These boats have all the capabilities of an inboard jet with an out outbord motor. These boats are so tough its unbelievable. Maison is a super cool dude who can build a bad ass boat. Check em out at River road jet boats on you tube.
Hey Jeff, listen up!! I’m an Electrician and always finish Smallmouth bass. After I seen your videos near power … I need warn ya ( I hate to loose a good friends) Here at Va. near Daleville Cement Plant.. there was a Three phase 480 volt pump station above small dam to water to cement plant.. flood 85’ wash pump house away.. nobody notices. Two boys was fish near it and caught a bass..reach in from the bank was electrocuted.
@@TheLittleStuff No sir, His buddy was with him saw what happen and call 911. Fire Department saw 3ph line under muddy, sandy toward water where pump house where pump house flood away. They went to the cement plant (400 yard) maintenance found old fuse disconnect. It was not labeled what was it for. What really freaking me big time I just fish there two month before flood and remember pump house was there.
Great video! What length is that NRX+? Been thinking about buying one what would you recommend for throwing the 4inch scented jerk shad for river smallies?
Awesome. My neck of the woods. I'm a little more Knoxville, French Broad and the Holston. Love your content. Oh and " I'm the Joe Biden of smallmouth" made me spit my bourbon through my nose.
What are you wearing? Is it waders? Looks nice, I haven't found anything I Like to wear that is thin and water proof and comfortable on a kayak in the cold months.
you pulled some good smallies off the "Dirty Bird" Good video.
Love the selfies with the fish...lol
Great video as always Jeff. Your up in my old stomping grounds. Beautiful scenery.
Nice video Jeff. Winter bass fishing is tough but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible!
Great info Jeff. Kudos on cleaning trash , If we all do that it would make a difference.
Each little clean up makes a difference. I swear it builds good Khama with the river.

That power plant is where they launch for white water rafting, I did that section, some serious stuff.

I knew you’d get ‘em once you put on the jerk bait. That’s my go too for winter fishing
It’s such a great search bait.
Such a high density of sweet water in that part of the country. I wouldn't be shocked if you had an Esox encounter there.

Enjoy it! What are the details of that rig?

I bet that’s a different kind of smell! 😂

NRS bibs.
Hey Jeff ,
What type of boat were you fishing in? Pontoons but not to wide ??
Innovative Sportsman Osprey 1436, inflatable kayak
Jeff great video. what wet suit do you use or recommend for winter kayak fishing
I’m enjoying the neoprene gasket comfort of the NRS Spyn Semi Dry Suit.
LOL...sniff sniff
"I'm the joe biden of smallmouth" lol!
When you put in the work, know what to look for and how to present, it almost seems too easy.
The next day, part 2 was NOT easy! But I found a few nice ones right as it got dark.
