Fished Friday afternoon for SM & spots around the State Park & Saturday for striper in Lilly creek & Caney Fork; 1 fish.
Thanks so much for your willingness to share with those of us that don't have the knowledge you have with the brown fish and flys. It gives us hope!
The comments about the two guys catching all the striper at the base of the dam peaked my interest. That's the first time in years I've seen a post about striper in the tailrace at Wolf Creek Dam. Is...
I charged up my 2 Inerstate marine RV deep cycle SRM-27 batteries last night; got to the lake and my trolling motor was very weak. I checked the battery connections and noticed that on 1 of the...
Anyone seen the river the last couple of days; what's it look like; are the ramps out of the water. Thanks.
I was thinking of trying the river this weekend for striper since the generation is down to a decent level and wondered if anyone had any recent experence in the the area listed in the title. Any...
Headed up from Nashville next weekend to the Jamestown, Ky. area for a Mother's day visit and plan to do some bass fishing with my son. Would you recommed C-land or the KY side of Dale. Why and what...
Thanks for the feedback on Green River; I'll cross the mud hole off my list this time around.
I'm a visiting out-of-towner and I'm planning to give Green River lake a try next weekend; I've fished it 3 times in the past but never this time of year. I've got a boat and gear for LM & SM; any...
I haven't done a lot of winter fishing in Nashville as I've only lived here for 3 winters. The areas I've had a lot of catching success in the arae has been in the tail race below Cordull Hull and...
Recently having put more focus on striper fishing and reading all the advise on the importance of "finding the fish", I believe I need to upgrade my depth finders. I currently have two Garmin Fish...
I was at Winfrey's in early November wading and saw several boats putting in or out. They all had to work a bit to get on or off but all were able to get it done. With a smaller boat you should be...
I'm not an authority on striper in the river below the dam, but what I've picked up from posts, reports, and trying it myself, striper fishing below the dam )all the way to the TN state line) has...
Sent you a PM.
I did go out Saturday morning, but due to the promise of early rain, I bailed on the lake and bank fished for trout below the dam. Got a limit of little ones in about 1.5 hours and headed back to...
After resisting the temptation for years, sticking to only LM and SM, I decided to give in and try striper fishing. I have a 17' Carolina Skiff rigged with a couple of depth finders, a good trolling...
The past year's water levels and temps seemed to kill the striper bite around Burkesville to KY/TN state line; the recent C-Land River report suggested they're back. I hope it's true as it's the some...
Coming in Sunday from the South to C-Land and was thinking about stoping below Burkesville on the way to striper fish on the river. Is it worth the stop or should I go straight to the lake for...
A few years ago (pre-dam repair) the river was on fire with monster striper; what does the prospect of them moving up river look like this spring (Burkesville area). I'd like to plan a trip soon but...
Took the boys out and they scored! You've got to love it!
I'm not a camper so I don't know the best spots, but I did live in Missouri for 15 years and fished The Lake of the Ozarks several times. I like the Grand Glaze arm, putting in at the what was called...
If you're fishing below Wolf Creek Dam and catching smallmouth it will be the only time I've heard anyone doing so. That doesn't mean they're not there, it just means I've never caught one and...
I was there early July and believe the water levels to be similar; if my belief is true, there are a few very shallow areas between the dam and Helms Landing when the gates aren't open. You need to...
I got a 17' skiff last year and use it on lakes and rivers. It has a shallow draft and can be run in shallow water. I'm happy with it and it performs very well for a varity of fishing situations; I...
Try the tail race of Cordell Hull for some fast action. Nothing big, 15 lb to 5 lb range, but alot of fun. The " usual" striper bite on the river on the KY side is dead and the Obey/Cumberland...
I recently spent several days fishing the river and I would suggest fishing as close as possible to the Wolf Creek dam tail water. The water down at the ferry was in the middle 70s and we saw morw...
IWe were only a short distance from the ramp just below the dam. We were on the sourth side of the river by the are where the big boulders/deep pool is. We caught walleye and sauger there two...
Fished the river on Thursday from about 8:30 to 4:30; put in at the dam and fished just short of Helm's Landing. Caught a 5 LB. brown, 4 or 5 browns and rainbows around 17 inchs and caught 8 or so...
Greg Wilson; owner/operator of Lake Country Outdoors (Russell Springs/Jamestown) and a friend of all who knew him, passed away on 5/31 at the age of 46. Services were held on Saturday & Sunday. Keep...
What's the river like down by Cloyd's Landing & McMillian's Ferry. Is the depth suitable for drifting down toward the state line (striper) or are there area's that a 17' boat won't clear?
I haven't seen any reports on the C-land river regarding striper being seen or caught around the Burkesville to state line area; have they moved up yet? If not, does anyone have any thoughts on when...
Did your guide friend offer any explaination for why the striper fishing is off? (high water, too early, global warming, etc...). Did he/she offer any prediction for the coming weeks? I need some...
I'm thinking about heading to the river around the Burkesville to State line area soon and was wondering if anyone has seen any of the big boys in the area lately. Thanks.
My group will consist of myself , my 11 year old son, my adult friend and his 10 year old boy. We need something that sleeps 4 (1 bedroom with pull out or a 2 bedroom); a kitchen with frig would be...
Planning to visit in late May and again in in early July and I'm looking for a place to stay on the river with river access on site or nearby; somewhere between Burkesville and the Tennessee state...
Anyone heard of striper blow ups on the C river around or below Burkesville yet? If not, when should they show up?
I agree with Livewell that the Classic competition was great and the coverage was poor, including having a Toyota overdose. I do have to disagree with Livewell's comment "they are just American made...
I've fished out of my 17 foot Carolina Skiff (fiberglasss) in that area several times without problems and the guide that runs in that area is using a 19 foot plus Skiff also.
Try fishing the area from Burkesville to the state line; there's a couple of ramps available but you have to look for them. The water level is more consistent down in this area compared to up by the...
Right from a bass holes mouth! XXL please.
Caught in the tail race with live shiner.
In a previous post I ask for info on buying shiner at Tims Ford; I changed my mind and am headed to P. Priest. I will be fishing around Bear Island and the 5 mile marker, coming in from the...
My thought as well at first, but reading what a rainy spring would do to the lake; i.e. cause the dam to release water 24/7. That would push out a lot of the cold lower level water into the river...
Thinking about making the trip down from Spring Hill Saturday for some winter striper but don't have a clue where to buy bait in that area. Any help (including tips) would be great. Thanks.
Smack Tackle; I think you have to buy direct from them. They have a web site.
I'm not as interested in the trout as I am with the river striper down around Burksvillle (although I'm interested in the outlook for trout). Any thoughts on the impact to the spring striper fihing...
Any color your favorite? I bought the one with a slight green cast to it.
Recently I've been readiing several reports from the mid-south that mention the Gizz-4 as an effective lure for striper. Of course I had to buy one but it hasn't seen water yet. Anyone had any...
Sounds a lot more like a sales pitch than unbiased advise.

The small sizes look right and the potential is interesting.
Is anyone doing anything like this for striper?
