Normandy Lake Fishing Report:      17 April 2024

Forecast Contributor Captain Jake Davis – Follow on Facebook

Normandy is producing some good fish and is about to get a lot better as TVA pulls the water down.  Current water levels are at 875.13 and headed up to 875.75 by Sunday morning. This will pit lots of floating trash and logs in the water, please use caution.  Crankbaits, Texas Rigs or Tightline Jigs have been our go to.  We found several really nice bass using Crankbaits at the end of points in 4 to 10 feet of water.

Walleye can be caught trolling crankbaits or drifting minnows/crawler harnesses on flats and in the river.  I’m being told the springtime Crappie are doing good, you can catch them around brush in the river and standing timber. Keep an eye on the habitat that TWRA and TN Bass Nation put out the last couple years Water temperatures range from 63 to 68 degrees.  Please wear your life vest all the time while on the water. Capt.

Normandy is starting to fish really good. For you Livescopers you can go scan around any major point and there will be plenty of bass. Although the best points are when you find bass that are actively feeding when we went, we ran into a school feeding and caught 10 bass in a matter of 30 minutes. For you old school bank beaters it’s hard to beat a red crankbait on flats next to deep water. You will catch most in the morning when they are pulling up to feed but there’s still a few fish to be had throughout the day. Hope you have tightlines.
