Fishing Report from Middle TN

Gill Plate

Fishing has been slow for the most part. The weather events have given us time to keep the boat out of the water and do the yearly maintenance. There are still some things that need to be done and all the things I have been putting off until the off-season, well guess what...it's the off-season. 
Caney Fork River- The Army Corps is pushing 6000 + CFS and it doesn't look like they will be letting up anytime soon. The fish are responding to streamers fished from the boat. The numbers have been low and there have been some hits and misses along the way. Wading is not the best idea on the Caney and if there is a choice, I would stay home and stock some fly boxes. 

The Elk River- TVA is pumping one generator worth of water 24/7. The Tims Ford Operating Guide is showing falling water levels so we will see how it goes with the big rain event the Weather Channel Girl is calling for tonight and into tomorrow.

The conditions haven't been the best, in Middle Tennessee, but the weather will turn and we will be back on the rivers, hopefully soon!
