Does anyone wade or canoe/kayak any of the following Middle Tennessee creeks or rivers: The Duck River, Buffalo River, Harpeth River, Piney River, Jones Creek, Yellow Creek or Turnbull Creek?  If so, I would love to get together and plan a fishing trip. I honestly believe that Middle Tennessee's fisheries are among some of North America's most pristine and best.

McScruff,

You must be from Louisiana. I am not from down there but I have heard them called "choupique" before. That is also my favorite name for them but most people around here call them grinnel. I do not keep them but I heard they are a delicacy down there.

"choupique" is my favorite name for amia calva, aka, bowfin.

Apparently, so is bowfish. ;^>

Yeah, I mean bowfin...

Comment by Mo Fish on February 19, 2015 at 8:48am

Yep. Grinnel is slang for bowfin.

Comment by Andy is OptiMystic on February 19, 2015 at 8:35am

Grinnel = bowfish?

I love creek fishing here in Central Arkansas. However, we call them bayous here. They are full of bream, crappie, bass, catfish and huge grinnel. Those grinnel love a bright colored Crappie Slider or Beetle Spin. If you can' t make it to the coast to catch redfish just latch on to a big grinnel. You won' t have to worry about driving he will pull you down there, back and leave you with nubs if you try to lip him. Great fish!
