I was finally able to get back up to the Chattanooga area and try for some big cat&#39;s...we started out on Chick and with the high bluebird sky&#39;s the fishing was tough.....we managed to drift around and locate some quality fish and we landed a 39,34,32,14, and 8 lber.....we decided to take out around 11:30 and see what Nickajack had to offer, we put in and the river was just barely trickling and boy was it hot.....we only managed one more fish....but it was a 60 pounder....we quit early due to the heat.....everyone was happy expecially the guide.<br /><br />Most cat&#39;s were caught 30-45ft deep....all the big ones were caught on half-a-skipjack baits.
