Put in at Soddy Creek at about 5:00pm. Tried to fish some familiar docks but too much water--no space to shoot. I picked up 5 or 6 beside the docks. Moved up river and found a new dock that was in 13 FOT and had a little clearance. Caught 13 there with 2 being over 13". Moved back into the creek and caught 7 from around a bridge. Moved to a spot Fat Albert told me about and caught 1 cat, 2 LM, 2 bluegill, 1 nice crappie. Water temp 68, Ringer Stingers on 1/32 jig with chart. salve. Took 7 Keepers home. Had a great visit with Fat Albert on the way to the water, talking about fishing rods, "The Shack", how blessed we all are, old friends, Baseball, and just good fellowship. Thanks Al. All in all a wonderful evening.
