Cumberland River

[BurleyDog]

We're fishing for trout mostly. But we will have a 14 year old boy with us so any tips for catching more fish is appreciated.

The plan has changed from drifting from the dam to Winfrey's Ferry. I have been on the river a couple times in a canoe... just want to take my jon boat this time.

Anyone know any shuttle services besides Juans?

Juans?

Is that a shuttle you can use down there.

I've tried to hookup a shuttle a couple times and have not been too lucky.

If you find one, let me know.

Later,

no go on the trolling motor the current is just to stiff, and it would drain your battery double time.

fishing has been good down there. you'll catch them all over. there are spots that didn't produce much last year that are offering tons of trout and there are areas that produced in years past that seem flat empty. if you fish is alot you can pretty much pick the spots where the big ones are holding...you may have to fish longer and be more strategic about it...and there are areas where you can just catch lots of fish without the size...of course there are always exceptions.

hope you grab a ton of 'em.
