Fishing at Hales Bar Marina
For my 88,000th mile stone I took some time fishing at Hales Bar Marina in Guild, TN. Nice place, indeed. The Marina has some floating cabins, which may not be a 5 star hotel, but are quite comfortable for a real cabin experience.
Nice folks take care of the marina. They even gave me a free night. It was on Friday the 13th and the place is said to be haunted, but all was quiet that night. THEY ALSO GIVE GHOST TOURS OF DAM if interested and it has been featured on Ghost Adventures
Caught some crappies, perch and bass, but missed on the big catfish which broke 3 of my hooks on 20 pound line while eating breakfast. The owner recently caught a 80 pound catfish (pictures to prove it). They have great places to eat too, if you end up not catching anything at all. I’d recommend the K.A.G.E. with the best biscuits and gravy on this side of the mountain. BTW just over the bridge is a different time zone :).
