A new 17"-22" slot limit Bass takes affect on Norris Lake
in East TN on March 1, 2010.
The TWRC removed the creel limit for spotted bass on
Norris Reservoir.
Fishing follows seasonal patterns. Most winter fishing is
concentrated in the headwaters of the reservoir and in
the mouths of tributary streams. In early spring, some
species begin spawning runs. Walleye and sauger, for
example travel upstream into the Clinch and Powell
Rivers and many are caught on these runs.
Good reservoir fishing is available from March through
July. Crappie fishing is best in April and early May. Bass
and walleye fishing hits it’s peak in May and June. Hair
jigs and deep running plugs are effective for most
species in early spring. Spinners and worms are
standard walleye bait.
During summer months, night fishing for white bass and
white crappie using live bait and lights has proven
successful. Black bass fishing, particularly small mouth,
picks up again in the fall. White bass, white crappie, and
walleye are caught by shallow trolling and still fishing
with minnows.
