AmericanPressTravelNews-May 15,-The Clinch River and Norris Lake-Bob & Barb “On the Road Again” & ” Stopping to Bend a Rod.” When we met up with Scott Manning, my very professional guide on the Clinch River, he explained that as I had mentioned; you fish the conditions, not the fish! He agreed, conditions for striper action in very high water from the constant early May rains, were just not good for anything but big “cats” of the fin and grunt kind. Scott even makes and markets a bottom rattle bobber that keep the baits off the bottom and waving in the currents. They work! We popped a 50-pound flathead catfish and then a much bigger one on the next drop and stop. We were anchored close to one of Scott Manning’s pals and his family and friends. They were catching some fine river cats for the grilling and had recently caught a large striper before the weather turned south. Well, I was able to take and make some images of our morning jaunt- I love it when guys and dolls are pulling on the big ones with or without whiskers! Scotts boat was nice and wide, well powered by a big Yam. and had the very best custom and off the shelf rods and reels. To get in touch with Guide Scott Manning give a call: 865-680-7672

AmericanPressTravelNews-May 10th,–Bob and Barb “On The Road Again” this time in Anderson County-Clinton, Oak Ridge, & Rocky Top, TN.-we dropped our bags and tooth brush at a fabulous condo apartment (which is also on sale now) provided by “Vacations on the Water” in Clinton, TN. Three large bedrooms, two full baths and showers, one with Jacuzzi Tub that we thoroughly enjoyed and relaxed in after a hard day of fishing, museum cruising (more details in next postings), dining and learning all about this Appalachian historical area. Below the condo there is a marina store next door, down the shore a bit, with all manner of boaters and anglers needs and even a weekend restaurant! We went fishing, visited The Museum of the Appalachia for an article for New Pioneer Magazine, and spent quite a bit of terrific times at Oak Ridge, now designated as a National Park.
The condo unit (with an elevator for convenience) would easily accommodate more than one couple or family and would be an extremely reasonably priced vacation rental. The one we stayed at in perfect condition with totally modern everything, is for sale now.
