New to the board here so I figured I would give a little area info.
My dad and I mainly fish the Cheatham dam area and TVA cumberland. We have been to the dam a few times in the last month or two and haven't really had any bad days other than the weather... It's been 2 weeks since we were there last but have managed to hook a few nice strippers but haven't been fortunate enough to land a big one yet. Sauger and white bass have been pretty plentifull for us but the white bass bite seems to have died off for us the last few weeks. As for TVA cumberland, the Cherokees and strippers are still bitting good. We have been there the past 2 weekends and had pretty good luck. Haven't personally landed any big ones but have seen a few pulled in. We showed up yesterday about 11am just as a guy was pulling in an 18 pounder. We struck out yesterday ourselves but the bite wasn't too bad. Been a pretty good few weeks fishing in our area and I hope it stays that way for a few more.
We are planning on going to the Cheatham dam this Saturday around noonish and maybe Sunday if the bite is still on. Going to try again on the generator side (can't remember which bank it's called) so come on down and try your luck. Just look for a long-haired guy fishing with his dad and stop by and say hi....
