Weekly Fishing Report for Percy Priest Lake

Fishing this past week has been above average due to some warmer weather that had moved in. This caused the fish to move a little shallower than normal. Warm days with brite sun will get the fish to move up and stage on rock banks this time of year.

Bass Fishing has been good with the most success coming off jig & pig combination with crankbaits working well on those warm days. Most successful depth has been from the shallows on out to 15 foot of water.

Crappie Fishing has been great. Best depths have been from 4-10 foot of water with minnows and jigs. On cloudy days they tend to back off a little deeper.

Stripers fishing has been sporadic but good when found. Most success coming from 10-20 foot of water on spoons or live bait.

Trout fishing has been great due to the stocking at Nice Mill last week. Go on the week days so you do not have to fight the crowd.

Water Temp - 42 degrees

Water Level - 482.73 ft.

Percy Priest Weekly Fishing Report: 1-11-09

Hello folks,

This week I have no new reports for you. I was busy working the boat show at the Nashville Convention Center with the Anderson Marine company. A great place if your looking for a new Skeeter, Ranger, Champion or G3 boat. I am a Skeeter man myself, but Anderson Marine does have some great deals on the Ranger 520 where they had bought out Music City Marine.

Spent some time with the TWRA guys also. If you do not know all your fishing & hunting regulations, you should have stop by and seen them. You can still give them a call or stop by their web site. http://www.state.tn.us/twra/

Percy Priest Weekly Fishing Report: 1-4-09

This past week has been some really good crappie fishing on Percy Priest Lake. A small warm front had come through and the weather had just stabilized enough to bring the crappie up for a few days. We were catching any where from 30-40 crappie per trip and about 90% of them were good ones. Several were 12" inchers and usually would get one around the 14" mark.

The catch was, you had to follow the fish. As the middle of the day approached, the crappie would be the shallowest. Your bait had to be in front of there nose too or you would not get bit. The average depth the fish were in was 4-10ft.

Temp: Hi - 58
Low - 42

Water Temp: 50
