jd1983 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2016 Vic - TVA publishes a generation schedule every day for the next day, so we have a pretty good idea of when the turbines will kick on. I've heard white can catch some good fish by the dams. Might have to give it a go up there some time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicrider 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2016 It isn't just the generation schedule. It has to be timed to the lake turning over and huge numbers of shad, alewives and other forage fish become disoriented and end up dying or struggling their way into the turbines and come out like fish chow. The generation itself plays a big part in oxygen levels, water temps and current actions far downstream but timing has to be right to zero on the big fish feeding spree from the big lake through the turbines.

djtrout 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2016 it's a catcher. in my world i'd throw it to smallmouth, fast retrieve, and have full confidence in it. believe that it will also do for pike and muskie; maybe smallish for muskie, but it would work.
