Chilhowee Reservoir Reopening July 1 BLOUNT COUNTY, Tenn. --- Following a nearly two-year closure, Chilhowee Lake is reopening to the public on July 1 at noon. Brookfield Renewable, which owns and oper- ates Chilhowee Dam, began draining the res- ervoir in September 2015 for dam inspection and repairs. Brookfield reports that the work is complete, the reservoir has been reflooded and will open for public use Saturday, July 1 beginning at noon.. In anticipation of a higher than normal vol- ume of boating traffic because of the holiday weekend and extended lake closure, TWRA officers will patrol the lake for boating safety enforcement. TWRA also wants to make boat- ers aware that there may be large amounts of floating debris in the reservoir as a result of the refilling process.

Winter normal elevation: 676.0 feet. Current elevation at time of report: 681.78 feet. The water surface temperature is 75 degrees in many areas. Some shallow areas are 80 degrees. Crappie: Few anglers are trying to catch crappie right now. Those that are target docks and steep creek bluffs with blowdowns. Minnows and jigs are being used with equal results. Some anglers are catching fish around lights at night. Smallmouth Bass: Some fish are being caught around rock walls or bluffs. The majority are being caught during low light hours. Top water lures and crankbaits are being used most often. Largemouth Bass: Humps and ledges on the main lake are being visited often by those anglers using crankbaits, plas- tic worms, or swimbaits. The problem is the heavy traffic in these areas, too many boats and too few community holes. Striped bass: Some trophy fish are being caught while using shad or swimbaits. Go to the tailwaters. Bluegill/Shellcracker: Most fish are being caught while using crickets or worms around river bluffs. Catfish: A lot of drifters are catching a lot of fish. Shrimp was a hit this past week. Those baiting with shrimp caught a lot of fish but not the giants sometimes caught while using skipjack. - TWRA - Nickajack Reservoir Report: Reservoir Conditions: Normal elevation: 633.5 feet. Current elevation at report time was 634.04 feet. The water tem- perature is 75 degrees. Largemouth Bass: Some bay fish are being caught. The areas with the main interest are on the channel. Irregular fea- tures along the edge of the channel are holding fish. Plastic worms are as good as anything. Smallmouth Bass: Most fish are being caught in the upper river or tailwaters. Jigs or crankbaits are being used. Spotted Bass: A lot of spotted bass are being caught in the tailwaters below Chickamauga Dam. Crankbaits and live bait are being used. Crappie: Minnows or jigs are being used in the upper river and tailwater in tranquil and shady water. Catfish: Many fish are being caught. Use meaty baits. Shad will be the best choice. Some big fish are being caught. Bluegill: Use crickets or worms around steep banks for the better results. - TWRA - 9 FORT LOUDON / TELLICO Fishing Supplies - Custom Lures - Live Bait - Hunting Supplies - Licenses Checking Station - Hardware - Gas - Convenient Mart - OPEN 7 DAYS Madison Paige Harris with her 1st trout ever!

  • Birds of Bledsoe Creek State Park
    Birds of Bledsoe Creek State Park Bledsoe Creek is a small park located in the state’s Central Basin on the shore of impounded Bledsoe Creek, a tributary of Old Hickory Lake. The park offers camping, fishing, hiking, and interpretation of Middle Tennessee history. Over four and a half miles of trails take visitors from the lakeshore to a high ridgetop. From these locations a variety of birds ranging from waders and wintering waterfowl to transient and nesting songbirds may be observed. One hundred and sixteen species have been recorded at the park. Responsible Birding - Do not endanger the welfare of birds. - Tread lightly and respect bird habitat. - Silence is golden. - Do not use electronic sound devices to attract birds during nesting season, May-July. - Take extra care when in a nesting area. - Always respect the law and the rights of others, violators subject to prosecution. - Do not trespass on private property. - Avoid pointing your binoculars at other people or their homes. - Limit group sizes in areas that are not conducive to large crowds.

    HAPPY 30TH ANNIVERSARY BOONE LAKE ASSOCIATION! SERVING BOONE LAKE SINCE 1983 Boone Lake Association is celebrating 30 years of working to improve the water quality and safety of Boone Lake. The picture to the left is an iconic picture of the shape that Boone Lake was in during the early eighties. Boone Lake Association was formed in 1983 and with the support of its members, has made vast improvements in the condition of the lake. As everyone on the lake knows, it is a continuous fight to keep the litter and wood debris out of the lake. BLA would like to thank all our members, past and present, along with our business and government partners. The picture below represents the Boone Lake we have all come to love and enjoy! Boone Lake association WATCHinG tHe WATERs P.o. Box 111 Piney Flats, tn 37686 april 2013 www.boonelakeassociation.org BOARD AND COMMITTEE HAPPENINGS BLA BUDGET As of December 31st 2012, BLA’s three accounts totaled $27,955. Of this, the Business Checking account balance was $14,297 (which included a $2,000 designated grant to Johnson City), the Capital Savings account balance was $10,774, and the Boone Lake Cleanup Day account balance was $2,884. Due to major expenses in the first 3 months of 2013, the Capital Savings account is now close to being depleted.
