Christmas Eve fishing
Am thinking going fishing Christmas Eve or day since it’s supposed to be in 60s. Looking at center hill lake, Normandy, or Tim’s ford. Tired of fishing priest right now and need a change. I love center hill bu a few posts said water may have turned over and few bites. Don’t know much about ford or Normandy. What does everyone think? Which should I try for this time of year? Their all about the same distance from me. Which would be better fishing this time of year? Do they all drop to winter pool? Any help would be appreciated. Would love to catch a few.
Thanks for any input. Oh yeah. Looking for bass unless I get into some crappie while bass fishing |

I'll be at Dale Hollow on X-mas day for sure and maybe even X-mas eve if we don't work. I know most of you are with your families on those days but if someone wants to go fishing then you are welcome to go with me. I don't really know what patterns are working at Dale Hollow right now but I hear the fishing is very good.

Dale Hollow Lake Tennessee Fishing Report: 19 Dec 2019 Dale Hollow Reservoir Conditions: Fishing is good. The water temperature is 52 degrees and the lake is rising. Smallmouth Bass: Lots of smallmouth are being caught on jigs and live bait while fishing points in 20-30 feet of water. Largemouth Bass: Several largemouth are being caught on jigs, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits while fishing the creeks in 5-15 feet of water. Crappie: A few crappie are being caught while fishing grass on the main lake in 10 feet of water. |

I saw TWRA's Region 3 report on FB saying the exact same thing. I will be going Thursday the 26th if all works out... In addition to the shiners, I'll be throwing small swimbats, silver buddy, ned rig, maybe a small jerkbait. I'll probably stay focused on SM bite, but if not happening, I'll venture back in the creeks. From past trips in winter, artificials need to be fished slower than slow but will still catch em. I hope the Obey Market (formerly Dale Hollow One Stop) has their shiners stocked up!

Made it up yesterday and stuck with shiners and swimbaits. All fish were just as planned...30' deep, points. Never went past the 2nd point of any creek or hollow. No schools to be had for me, just one fish per spot it seemed. Water temp 50-53 fishing lower lake. Water clear with a little color. Here are my best four.
