CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — Eyeballing his Garmin LiveScope screen, my guide for the day, Jason Sealock, pointed and said, “The brush pile is about 20 feet that way.”
I dropped a jig exactly where he said, let it fall to a 10-count and began a slow retrieve. I hadn’t turned the reel handle five cranks when I felt the tell-tale “Thump,” and quickly brought the 11-inch Kentucky Lake crappie to the boat.
