Urban Fishing - Episode 3 - 2nd Creek, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN
The water stinks! Short little creek with stinky water, but seems to be loaded with Bluegill. I will go back at some point in the future and do some micro fishing.
Bio: I am a life long Knoxville, TN angler. Fishing from the bank, kayak, or bass boat. This channel is my creative outlet, but I also hope we can share adventures and learning experiences. I have a wonderful wife, 2 kids, am a leader in the banking industry during the day, and never turn down a chicken sandwich. I have no sponsors or affiliate deals, so all of my reviews and information is purely experiential.

    WOW! Thanks a lot! I have one of those motors coming in tomorrow and I was thinking about the way the bracket just overhangs the front of the boat. How I would be able to do that and not damage my trolling motor? It came to me to get one of those brackets and use it. I went to Bass Pro Shop today and bought that exact bracket. I just took it out of the box and was looking at it to see if it would work and I found that the side screw didn't come where it would just screw into the bottom bracket to stop it by tension and it wasn't going to let my motor slide back far enough. Drilling that extra hole and tapping it is a genius move!! That way, it doesn't have that long overhang that is really a bad design. Minn Kota should really look into another fix for that because it could be damaged on the roller on launching the boat. Of course, I guess they did! With this $59.99 bracket!! KA-CHING!! Thanks for your fix!

    Needed this video, ironically I’m in east TN and was diagnosed years ago with BPD (borderline personality disorder) when I was in the Marine Corps. Also have wife and kids, do struggle financially though which does not help at all but I’ve been looking into kayak fishing as it looks so peaceful and relaxing and I think it would help me to have that brief mental break every once in a while. That is if the wife is cool with me leaving her with the kids while I go kayak for 3-4 hours, not sure how that’ll go lol saving up for a cheap kayak and maybe I’ll be out there in next few months!

    Bull Run creek is cool too. I saw a video Alex Rudd did floating it (I recognized the bridge he put in at haha) and it was really cool, caught some small Muskie even in there. I bet you’d enjoy that creek. Might be a little more out of your usual area. Also, they’ve recently posted “Private, No Trespassing “ signs at that bridge. Pretty sure his video was fairly old when he posted. There’s a good bit more graffiti on those bridge pillars now than there was then.

    Nathan, I am curious after a few years now if you are still happy with this install? Did you have to put anything on the in-boat side to help stabilize TM from bouncing in rough water or did you just slide it back at dock?

    • @ScruffyCityFishing
      @ScruffyCityFishing 5 місяців тому

      So far, so good! I have not slid it back whole in the water.. but do slide it back during towing. Honestly, our lakes here aren’t too rough because of the topography limiting how far winds go without hitting a mountain.
