I think it was on there last week Pappy. Maybe who ever reports it in is on vacation or something.
I can't help you now but we just moved to Watts Bar I know nothing about the lake but plan on fishing it hard this fall and winter.

:dono TC ... seems every time I look it up there isn't any report for Watts Bar. Maybe I just missed that report. :scratchheadQuote:

I haven’t seen it on the reports either. At least Region III still gets reports. I mostly fish Region IV (I’m in Knoxville), and all I can find is a statement that the Region IV clerks aren’t writing fishing reports anymore. Glad our money is going to good use...

Actually just saw your other response, Pappy, pointing out the new report location. Guess I’ll give HuntBuddy a try and see what it’s got. Either way, a bit frustrating that we can’t even get fishing reports from them.

I looked at several links, only Region III seems to have a report. Even got a security alert (malware) on one Huntfishbuddy link that I came upon. Could just be McAfee overreacting, but I wouldn't pursue it unless you have good antivirus security.Quote:

Quick report: went today caught mine 18-20ft up river on brushpiles tight tight tight. Jig for them. Brushpiles in creek channels right off main channel. I tipped mine with minnow caught some and also just with a Bobby garland.

Seems to be my consistent result down south ... slow days for the most part but when I find them, it's pretty good! Piney is my best luck, I never seem to do well in Whites Creek ... although I hear others do. Must be because I am closer to Whites Creek! ��
I don’t do a whole lot of good in whites creek. I can’t find much brush in there that is in the right depth. But, it’s so big it is hard to cover it all. I mean I could with side image but I’ve got other places that are holding places. I put out over 60 bamboo piles all over the lake this year. I want to put more out. Can’t ever have enough. If any of you all put brushpiles out make bamboo piles and put 2-3 together in a creek channel at about 18-20ft.
