[QUOTE="Crow Terminator, post: 5120202, member: 220"] I made the mistake of hooking the boat up and going to Watts Bar Friday afternoon. I’ll not be doing that again! Sweet baby James...I’m still riding waves. Wake boats, cruise boats, pontoons...my trolling motor was coming out of the water with some of those waves. I tried finding another school of bass between some spawning areas and the main river. No go. I mostly idled around following my map contours and looking for baitfish and such. One thing of note here was I was the only person in the areas doing what I was doing. I marked some fish in one spot and tried to see what they were. I no more than got on my front deck and made a few casts when this guy in a white boat came by on plane, circled back, then idled all around me...came to within 50 yards of me scanning with his sonar, then jumped up and started fishing the same spot. Ok. No biggie. Just strange that of the many miles of ledges, he picked there. I left and went down river about a mile. I could still see the white boat from where I went to. I started fishing there and caught a gar on my crankbait. I was cutting the nicks out of my line when I heard a boat getting really close to me from behind. I turned to look to make sure I wasn’t about to get ran over and there’s white boat dude again. He had picked up from the other spot and followed me. I have no idea who he was or why he was following me. He scanned all around me then went to fishing again. I can only figure he was an out of towner and thought I knew some hot spots when I really don’t. I didn’t even throw back out. Pulled up and left and went out of sight. Found some foundations from old homes and barns while following some road beds...they had fish on them but I didn’t know what kind. Turns out it was crappie and sauger. I had never caught sauger in the main lake before so that was a surprise. I took several pictures of the crappie and sauger but for some reason they are all gone from my phone. All I got was pictures of the gar and one of the dude in the white boat that was following me. Took several crappie and 2 sauger home to eat. The picture of the white boat makes him look farther then he actually is. [/QUOTE]
