Cumberland River Stripers

Sluice gates are open, should be alot of water to float, but look out for rocks

Might head down there the first weekend in October with my 6 year old and camp for the weekend. Any other suggestions for fishing around the falls area? We'll be bank fishing unless one of the canoe rental places will let us fish, seems like several only allow for guided tours. Always enjoy everyone's input.

Thanks to everyone for the help... I will post back how things went.

Anything to report?

No stripes...but beautiful country! Caught a couple trout, nothing big. Tried pulling boards with live bait and some casting Saturday and Sunday. Talked to one person that had caught a single Striper about 12 pounds. Had a good time and learned a little about the river...will do it again. Thanks to all for the help!
