Joe,
Lots of folks on this board with a lot more Norris experience than me, but I can give you some general info. I love Norris. Much more so than Cumberland, which is sort of tough for this KY boy to say.
Almost every time I've been down there, whenever we found three things: (1) steep banks (2) nearby deep water and (3) broken rocks or boulders, we caught fish. I'm usually down in winter or early spring, never been this time of year, though.
Tubes, grubs, and lots of fishermen swear by rootbeer Bandit cranks down there as well.
I'd check out the other threads on this board and the TN wildlife reports, too.
