Couldn't catch anything on Rayburn Chrustmas day so I come out here for a few hours this morning to get my mojo back and when I got here there was no one. Now the lot is full. Any good reports from anywhere from Christmas Day ?

Very tough out there these days. Tough indeed!!! Athens is a small lake with only 1 primary ramp. If you want a bunch of new friends, simply post the results of a successful fishing trip on an "open" TFF post.
