I was amazed of all the people at this Great Lake and more surprised there ain't nobody talking [censored] on here about how busy Athens was this weekend!?
It was amazing weekend, fishing was good but kinda tough with the blue bird skies but managed to catch plenty of fish and have a great time.
How did everybody else do?
I need some help also, it won't let me post pics to on here from my phone, anybody got any tips to help.?
I still have a few days still available in April for half and full day guide trips.

All the locals fished elsewhere on the weekend. Better fishing during the week. The fishing right now at Athens is really not very good.

I know y'all both know the lake well so which is it, haha? I planned to hit it tomorrow and haven't been since last summer.

We had 15 boats there Saturday for our club tourney and winners had about 16.80. Big bass for the day out of our group was 5.39.
And yeah, LOTS of boats on the water. Ramps were busy at 5:30 a.m. and again at 3:00 when we were coming off the water.
My team caught around 14 fish and we weighed 13.93 and came in 5th.

Everybody has to understand it has a lot of pressure and fish get tired! Athens is still good, u gotta just fish different and make changes!
Athens is sill awesome, idk why everybody down grades it when it's a bad weather day or has a lot people there?
It's fishing, not everybody is gonna catch them everyday!
Just fish and don't cry about ur experience and make everybody not go bc u suck?! U know

NUTZ thinks if he can't catch them then no one can because HE lives on the lake.

Did u even read what I said? I don't live on lake and I never said if I can't catch them no one else can?
I said, like Gerald swindle says, do u ever go to Chinese buffet and nobody is in line? Nope, somebody is always eating.
So what I'm saying is that, if ur not catching them that day, don't get on this forum and say it's sucks and just don't go. It's a Great Lake and has got pressured but fishing is still good if u just make adjustments.
I love the TFF

John,
NUTZ is Nutman.......not you. He is the one saying the lake sucks because he can't catch them.

Just fish and don't cry about ur experience and make everybody not go bc u suck?! U know How is this any different that any post about any other lake mentioned on this forum? You may take it more personally because you guide on it, but sure seems like you let it get under your skin. For the record, fish hate me or are allergic to my boats/baits because I NEVER catch more than a handful. I enjoy the lake Athens threads because I try to take the useful information and improve myself. If someone says fishing sucks, I feel less bad. If someone whacks them I hope they share tips....
