Re: brown go around, blue go through

ahh, Dale Hollow, memories flooding back from my youth when we trekked there twice a year from Ohio. Stayed at the Obie River COE campground. Enjoyed the endless coves and clear, smooth water. This was 20-25 years ago - has it changed much?

Re: brown go around, blue go through

i live right close to the TN river, saltillo about 20 miles from savannah, TN. i was spoiled with the FLA keys and the clear water. in the river cant see what might float up on ya. but the lakes are nice like beech lake in lexington. and natche trace.

Re: brown go around, blue go through

Hello... W TN girl!!! No wonder you have so much "brown" water... down there!!! TN River full of barges & crap from off the banks!!!<br /><br />But you know I grew up on TN River/Paris Landing/KY Lake area!!! My favorite trip/cruise is from Cuba Landing (I-40 bridge) to Cypress Bay area... above Hwy 79 bridge!!! Me & the dawg, Birdie, just luv it... set it to @ 21-28 MPH cruise for a few hours, a few beers and good music... life is grand!!! Make a day of it & not land locked!!!<br /><br />Know where Beech Lake is in Lexington, TN... always used to have a good football team but we always seemed to clash when I live in little "burg" of McKenzie, TN... my parents still live there...<br /><br />Do they still have that good catfish house on the river??? I can't remember the name but I do remember the food... very good as I recall!!!<br /><br />Coming from the "keys"... I hope you know you landlocked yourself but you can still get there via "tombigbee" if need be but long trip!!! LOL<br /><br />Need to make it a point to get up to Middle Tennessee & check out our lakes when you & your family have a chance, if you haven't done so already!!!<br /><br />

Re: brown go around, blue go through

Re: brown go around, blue go through

I believe you've got it!!! "Catfish Hotel"... what a name but that is it!!! Next time I get back home, I will check out "Pin Oak", somebody told me the other day that "Fuchs" (Milan) had closed... I think that is how you spell it... First place I ever ate catfish... hush-puppies... home-made fries... I am getting hungry here!!!<br /><br />
