(“Peregrine App.”... con’t from p. 6) a permit will be issued in Tennessee. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service awarded Tennessee its first permit allowing the trapping of one Peregrine falcon for the use in falconry in 2011. The population of Peregrine falcons, through state and federal con- servation efforts, has recovered enough since their near-extinction in the early 20th century to allow for a limited take of these birds for the use in falconry.

Chickamauga Reservoir Fishing Report: Reservoir Conditions: Summer normal elevation: 682.0 feet. Winter normal elevation: 676.0 feet. Current elevation at time of report: 682.58 feet. The water surface temperature is in the mid 80’s. Crappie: Fish docks with jigs, fish under lights at night on steep banks, or fish above trees or brush 20 feet deep on steep banks while using jigs or minnows. Smallmouth Bass: More smallmouths are being caught below Watts Bar Dam than other locations. Fishing during the late or early hours will increase the odds of catching fish. Crankbaits are being used more often than the alternatives. Largemouth Bass: Humps, points, and main lake ledges are targets when the current is flowing. Crankbaits, swimbaits, and plastic worms are being used. Some bass are being caught around the grass on flats located adjacent to the main channel. Striped bass: Fish the tailwater with swimbaits or jigs. Bluegill/Shellcracker: Most fish are being caught while using crickets or worms around river bluffs. (Con’t on p. 12) 11 HIWASSEE / OCOEE RIVERS (“Fishing Report” con;t from p. 11) Catfish: Current is needed. Drift the main channel. Use meaty baits. Walleye: Reports of walleye being caught in the upper end of the reservoir while trolling crank baits. Also some walleye being caught along rocky points around the mid to lower end of the reservoir while using crank baits. Some of the better success has been reported late in the evening and after dark. -TWRA- Nickajack Reservoir Fishing Report: Reservoir Conditions: Normal elevation: 633.5 feet. Current elevation at report time was 633.02 feet. The water tem- perature is in the mid 80’s. Largemouth Bass: Drop shotting is a technique being used in deep water. Most of these areas are located near the channel. Grass beds located near the channel are also being targeted by anglers using spinnerbaits or plastic worms. Smallmouth Bass: Most fish are being caught in the upper river or tailwaters. Night fishing is the better time to catch fish. Spotted Bass: Several spotted bass are being caught in the upper reservoir.

  • NORRIS FREEWAY CORRIDOR MANAGEMENT PLAN Prepared by the City of Norris, Tennessee June 2020 SECTION 1: ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
    NORRIS FREEWAY CORRIDOR MANAGEMENT PLAN Prepared by the City of Norris, Tennessee June 2020 SECTION 1: ESSENTIAL INFORMATION Location. Norris Freeway is located in the heart of the eastern portion of the Tennessee Valley. The Freeway passes over Norris Dam, whose location was selected to control the flooding caused by heavy rains in the Clinch and Powell River watershed. Beside flood control, there were a range of conditions that were to be addressed: the near absence of electrical service in rural areas, erosion and 1 landscape restoration, and a new modern road leading to Knoxville (as opposed to the dusty dirt and gravel roads that characterized this part of East Tennessee). The Freeway starts at US 25W in Rocky Top (once known as Coal Creek) and heads southeast to the unincorporated community of Halls. Along the way, it crosses Norris Dam, runs by several miles of Norris Dam State Park, skirts the City of Norris and that town’s watershed and greenbelt. Parts of Anderson County, Campbell County and Knox County are traversed along the route. Date of Local Designation In 1984, Norris Freeway was designated as a Tennessee Scenic Highway by the Tennessee Department of Transportation. Some folks just call such routes “Mockingbird Highways,” as the Tennessee State Bird is the image on the signs designating these Scenic Byways. Intrinsic Qualities Virtually all the intrinsic qualities come into play along Norris Freeway, particularly Historic and Recreational. In fact, those two characteristics are intertwined in this case. For instance, Norris Dam and the east side of Norris Dam State Park are on the National Register of Historic Places.
