    Wading the Cumberland Tailwaters

    I plan on going to the Cumberland River area in the near future, but I don't have my boat available. Can anyone tell me where there is a good place to drive to that is near a good wading area for trout. Anywhere from Wolf Creek Dam to the TN line would be okay. I plan on couple or three days so any good suggestions would be great.
    Thanks,
    Tieguy

    Re: Wading the Cumberland Tailwaters

    Thanks Slowjerk,
    Been there before several years ago, did pretty good, but didn't stay there long enough. The river came up from the generation release and almost got stranded on the sandbar. I'll know better this time. Also, thanks for the directions, couldn't really remember how to get there. The fellows at Strange Bait got me there last time. It's good to know it's a good place to go with all the stuff going on with Wolf Creek Dam. I'll post later on how we did. Any suggestions on the type of bait/lures. Last time they hit on spinner baits/roster tails.
    Thanks again for the response.
