Wade Hayes’ big smallie

June 5, 2008 By JD 5 Comments

Apparently, Wade Hayes can do more than play guitar and sing…turns out the country star is also quite handy with a rod and reel, thank you.

Here’s a sweet smallmouth bass he caught while fishing Nashville’s Percy Priest Lake with our pal and pro basser, Big Fred Contaoi who fishes the FLW Tour for Orange County Choppers.

And as far as Big Fred switching gears and doing a little pickin’ on the 6-string…well…it’s not pretty (trust me).
