Forecast Contributor- Tic Smith/Southeastern Anglers Guide ServiceWater Temperature 44 to 49 degreesWater Clarity clearWater Level TVA has been running a 2 generator schedule this week. There was some 1 generator flow for a couple of hours but that is not predicted for the next few days.Fishing conditions Fishing was a bit of his and miss this past week. Colder temps at night lowered the water temps and the trout were hugging the bottom. We did not see a lot of shad coming through and the lack of bugs made for tougher fishing conditions. There were several big fish caught however but overall numbers have been down.Hatches- Some little black stoneflies are out but so far; we have not experienced a large hatch. We do expect it once the water temps stay steady around 50 degrees. Midges are definitely abundant in the late afternoon, but surface activity has been sparse.Nymphs standard pheasant tails with or without beads #16 to #18. Zebra midges are producing as well.White streamers size 6 to 8 are producing strikes as well as wooly buggers in the same size. Trout are still looking for the shad in the upper part of the river. Fish these streamers slow for the best results.
