Guided Fishing Trip Locations on Pickwick Dam

The lower Kentucky Lake in Tennessee is a world-renowned fishery, offering exceptional conditions for trophy angling, especially for those targeting the famed Largemouth Bass, Crappie, and giant Blue Catfish. The fishing conditions are heavily influenced by the Tennessee River channel and TVA current, which concentrates baitfish and actively feeding sportfish along offshore structure like ledges, creek channel drops, and humps—a signature of the Best Bass fishing in Kentucky Lake. Key areas along this stretch, running from the Alabama border north toward Kentucky, include the powerful tailwaters and rocky areas near Pickwick Dam, the expansive flats and cover around Savannah, TN, and the major feeder creeks near Camden, TN and Paris, TN.


Anglers can expect to find Bass relating to shallow cover during spring and fall, but the major summer bite occurs offshore on the main river ledges; Crappie are consistently found on man-made brush piles and deep-water structures year-round. These Kentucky Lake Tennessee fishing hotspots demand a blend of techniques, from deep-diving crankbaits and jigs on the ledges to live bait for the robust Catfish population that thrives in the main river bends.
