Wintering in Florida is fun and challenging for fishing. Lots of high winds this year and it has affected the fishing season. We got on some nice fish inshore and offshore. We’re heading back to Tennessee in a couple weeks. I’m ready to get on some striper and big cats.

Tennessee fishing guides, take note! The Blue Catfish bite at Watts Bar Dam has been excellent in the past week. Despite the relatively cold water temperature, the catfish are actively feeding and can be caught using a variety of techniques. To increase your chances of success, try using the best catfish bait available. Early morning and late evening have been the most productive times to fish for Blue Catfish at Watts Bar Dam, with the bite slowing down as the day heats up. If you want to make the most of your trip, consider charter fishing with a Tennessee fishing guide, who can offer expert advice and take you to the best spots for catching catfish. And don't forget to bring plenty of water and sunscreen to stay hydrated and protected from the intense sun.
