Bruce...yes I have seen the TVA site projected current off many times....but remember...the current you see as projected is an average projection....also the past hourly report is an average....many times you may get a few minutes of strong current and then low current or no current for the rest of the hour.
carman: Ledge night fishing can definitely be good. As far as no current changing the way I fish a ledge...sometimes yes and sometimes no...if the fish are there and not biting I will try aggravating techniques or reaction techniques such as shakey head, drop shot or slack lining jigs....Ledge fishing requires a lot of patience...sometimes you may work a ledge for hours before the fish get active....those who have patience do best on ledges. As far as big numbers or no big numbers with no current...that is not true...have had many days including last Friday with big numbers of fish on ledge with no current....when they are ready to eat they will eat...current will get the shad more active and in turn will get the bass biting more...that is why we like current when we are fishing ledges...but you take what they give you.
