Old Hickory is tough right now. For numbers you need to find the bait. Some of the creeks have tons of bait in them. I've been targeting that bait balls in 3-10 feet of water. It doesn't matter what you throw at them really. Those fish are very aggressive and will eat anything. There is a ton of bait at that depth in Spencer Creek and the small bass are easy pickings. You can easily catch a limit but it's gonna max out about 8 lbs. for the quality bite I've been having success targeting isolated wood. The best targets have been those that are in 4-10 fow with deeper water very close by but not very close to the bank. Thursday my best 5 were 4-2oz, 3-15oz,3-7oz,3-3oz, and 2-7oz. All on wood. There are a few bass to be had in the weed beds to but very inconsistent for me. Hope this helps
