Heck thats gotta be a great day to fish....Lucky number 7s all in it!!

Just got off the phone with MJ...want to set up a Holston trip this day. Been wanting to fish this river a long time.

JD...Fish....You all good for this weekend? If so Fish you can bring your boat...Ive got one me and my buddy Bryan can use...and Fish will have a fella named Bubba with him or another one of his friends.

Let me know if this sounds good to yall.

Sounds great. 7-7-07 Ill bring my kayak, i have some extra gear if anyone needs it. Bring drinks and pack a lunch. BCO bring your A game....

dont know if i could do that....id hate to catch every single fish the holstons got to offer

Just talked to a friend in Chattanooga. He is going to join us also. Bringing his pontoon.. Sounds like a trip in the making...

good deal. ill make sure i can get a boat tonight. one thing i remembered is i dont have a motor on the boat i can get

ill figure something out by then.

BCO , how far is the Holston from where you live?

i think its down by morristown tn...which if thats the case...about 45 minutes. not that bad at all. plus the whole way to m-town you drive over clinch and big sycamore creek, both which some killer looking spots that you can see from the road.

So it would take me about three hours to get there from where I live?

somewhere in that vacinity yeah. hazard being about 2 hours from mboro...

i honestly think it would be worth the trip. this thing being 100 yards wide has got me hooked. i cant wait to fish it.

Yeah I've been by the Holston many times and just like the Clinch it is a great looking river. I'm trying to get everything done so I can go. Like I said before, I'm looking forward to going if I can.

It takes me @ 45 min. From my house to get there. If you look at a map, we are going to be bewteen Surgoinsville and Kingsport. Church Hill is the name of the town closest by. Its small. Near Holston Army ammo plant. Come down 25E from Middleboro to 11W ,then go NE. Hope this helps.

How close is it to Kingsport? That may be the best way for me to go.

@ 15 min. Here is a link to the area we will be floating.

Click on link then zoom "out" at aerial view. Some small islands to eat lunch on. Plenty of places to wade. We will put in near the ammo plant. Take out at Laurel Run Park

Thanks, I'm about two hours from kingsport so I'm thinking that is the quickest way for me. I'll look at the site and see but It will probably be shorter for me that way, and a lot better roads. Hope I get everything done, I'm looking forward to a good fishing trip. thanks again

This is where we are taking out at "red star" Click areial image. We will put in at Holston Ord. Works "labeled" upriver from park. @ 2.5hr float straight thru. Figured we can fish it hard and make a long or short day of it. Most other areas are a super long float. Trust me it makes a long hard day on everyone. Done one that was supposed to be 5 miles. Turned out to be an 11hr float, and everyone was dead at the end of the day. If we get done quick, plenty of spots close by to wade and fish...

looks great...cant wait to fish it!

If I can come I will probably camp for a day or two so I don't have a two hour trip after the fishing trip. I've done a lot of whitewater rafting and canoeing,so I understand what your saying about being worn out . If anyone want to camp out they are more than welcome to join me .

heck...may just do it! ive been wanting to camp out for a while now...

BCO that way we could get in more fishing than just one day

very true man. let me see if i can round up my tent. my GFs brother had it last time i seen it...
