Introduction
Hello all,
I have been browsing this forum for a while now so I finally made an account. Without a doubt my favorite fishing is for bluegill and shell cracker. I mainly fish the Tennessee side of Lake Barkley. We had some really strange weather this spring but it turned out to be one of the better fishing springs I've had. I found a lot more shell cracker beds this year than I normally do.
I look forward to learning from everyone!
Will

Here is one I had on my phone. I went on a camping trip to Lake Barkley when the gills went on the bed. This is one of the nicer shells I caught. This fish was caught on May 16th.
