Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

 Stayed there chasing smallies for a week this last April. Also went to Jack Daniels.....and Estill Springs is THE town. No need to be in any kind of hurry about anything down there..... ;)
Nice place, nice folks. The lake is about 14,000 acres but fishes like 100,000. Gin clear and has some dandy smallies in it. Any kind of structure you want is there by the ton. I'ld say it's a "can't miss" kinda place. Y'all have fun now.....
Look past what they want you to see.

I fished Percy Priest and Old Hickory in late.  If you are in that area you might want to spend a day on one of those lakes.  I have a friend who guides on both Old Hickory and Percy Priest.  If you are interested you can look him up.  His name is Shay Doming and you can check out the website.
