going to reelfoot for the first time at the end of the month. i'm trying to find a fishing report and not having any luck.

did you check with the tennessee dnr reports page?

Google up "Eagle Creek Resort". They have a fishing report on their website. They are a resort located on the lake and have updates all the time. Leave your big boat at home, good place to lose a lower unit. Very shallow lake with lots of stumps, etc.

FYI...Eat at "Boyette's"..everything's good.Don't know what your after but the Bluegills should be easy pickings,one other thing be very about careful getting out on the bank.This is the "snakiest" place I've ever been!!!

Try Blue Bank Resort.I have been there and everything is real nice.Like said before leave your boat at home or you will only bring half the motor home.

Just got back a week ago, so here is what I can tell you. Bluegill are biting, decent fish here and there being caught, but no where near the size or numbers of the past. I have been fishing the lake for about 7 years and this has been the worst by far. Crappie were being caught deep, but after the sun is overhead the fishing was over. Catfish is your best bet. They are everywhere and very eager to bite on just about anything. And as everyone else said, leave your boat at home. I have always taken mine for years, and never had any problems. Well guess what......its in the shop now. Very expensive trip for me. Good luck!!!!

Duh, went brain dead. I meant Eagles Nest. We stayed there twice this spring and really enjoyed the place and the people there. They are family and own a couple of the other resorts down there as well. My brother in law just got back and said they only stayed two days and left and went up to Kentucky Lake as the panfish bite was not very good. They did really well at KY, even with the Elite Tournament, etc.
