Report Contributor Billy Wheat, Follow on Facebook and www.riprapfishing.netChickamauga is full water temperature is 68-72, The spawn is still going but the offshore crankbait bite is fire. The scrounger is a goto as well. But its hard to beat that Minner on a scope. The grass bite is getting better every day as the post spawners are getting hungry for that Swimbait.
