Walleye

[woodyard]

What lakes in TN would be good to go after walleye? I have never fished for them.what time of year and method would probably work for a novice?

I e heard Normandy I'd good.
I've caught a few on the caney and the Cumberland in that area.
Old hick holds the record but I don't know if there is that many there
Anymore.

ive been doing some research for a TARP fish and looks like cordell hull, old hickory, center hill and dale hollow may be the best bet. if they are anything like sauger then i shouldnt have a problem, but dont know never caught a walleye.

I fished walleye in their spring run as they came out of lake Erie into the Detroit river we would limit out on the U.S. side put them in a cooler then do it again on the Canadian side. Four of us 48 fish a day until freezers were. We caught all in current vertical jigging straight up and down

Dale Hollow

I still haven't figured out how to catch em on Normandy, can count on 1 hand how many I've caught in the last 3 years, but they are there for sure.

Center hill, dale hollow, and the cumberland river have them. Actually the hatchery gets their brood stock from the Cumberland river.

Douglas has a good sauger and walleye fisheries. The upper end gets active mid-February.

Fish the alewive spawn in mid April after the walleye have spawned using top water for the most unique experiece.
