Try some plastics on the points. Also I've had good luck with crankbaits around points and any rocks you can find...this was on the south side of the lake.

What part of the lake will you be fishing?? I can be more specific if it's on the south.

Dark plastics (Green Pumpkin, Watermelon Seed, etc) 6" or 7" worms with light weight - 1/8, 3/16 oz, 10-20 ft deep around shady points, boat houses, piers. Better late evening and night.

Unless you have another reason to be on Wheeler, don't waste your time or money. It is possibly the worst bass fishery on the TN river south of Ft Loudon dam.
Bream should be biting good with the full moon also.
