they "USE" to catch them above the london locks.if u turn left from the ramp u go 3 or 4 miles and u will see the locks.on the right is a grass bed.that whole bank "USE" to hold fish.i am to the point of starting to doubt the numbers of fish in that river.it "USE" to be a great body of water!!!

Thanks some suggestions are better than none, what about up river away from dam, any certain maybe spots ?? I know there are some on up in there but it gets pretty rocky and shallow if you don't know where your going past the train tressel bridge, and below the dam ,might hit your grass beds and then lock thru go down river any help there.
Thanks Jerry

There is a flat on the right side before you get to the train bridge it is a pretty big flat sometimes you can find them up on it feeding first thing in the morning. Try a little popper or fluke. Can't promise you anything because it is hit and miss. River is tough right now once the sun comes up down size and grind it out. Shakey head or dropshot in deeper water.

I agree I have been fishing it for roughly 15 years which wasn't all serious fishing but about 10 of those years were in tournaments and it does hold some good fish it just gets fished to death and the fish are pressured and moved all the time due to the enormous amount of tournaments that are held weekly. It has it's prime time and right now just isn't a prime time. Shad spawned a couple weeks ago and they are getting bigger it will get better in the weeks to come. Waiting patiently for them to turn on

How did it go?

[JER-1 BIG BASS]

I was second boat out I should have went to the grass beds downriver first thats where big bass 4 or 5 lbs was caught real early morning that was my plan at first but after the rock flats being mentioned I went up river first caught 5 or 6 all day nothing big enough to keep, my parter caught a couple keepers for weight in a lot of fish were caught though.
