Current Fishing Weather
Wind Speed and Direction
Wind Direction:
Wind Speed:
Wind Direction and Speed are one of the most important aspects for choosing a fishing spot. An offshore wind can help land-based anglers with longer casting distances, while an onshore wind will make kayak fishing safer. Often fish will also move to certain feeding areas depending on the wind direction. Check out the long term wind forecast at the charts below.
Fishing Barometer
Atmospheric Pressure:
Change since midnight:
Trend for next 6 hours:
Atmospheric or Barometric Pressure affects fish activity. The best fishing can be had on a rising barometer and also the time just before it is falling. A steady barometer in the higher ranges can also mean good fishing. A falling or low barometer reading without much change is usually not a very good time for fishing.
UV Effect on Fishing
As a rule of thumb, the higher the UV index, the deeper fish will move. Shallow water fishing is best done at times with a low UV index. When the UV is high, stick to early mornings, late evenings and shaded areas. The effect is less noticable in deeper water, but often a higher UV index can produce good results in the deep.

Fishing Overview Dyersburg
Fishing around Dyersburg, TN centers on the big-river systems of the Mississippi, Forked Deer and Obion, backed up by small lakes, oxbows and backwater sloughs that shine in different seasons. The mix of current, flooded timber and shallow agricultural backwaters creates year-round opportunity if you time the bite and match your presentation to water level and clarity.
Catfish are the headline species for many Dyersburg anglers. On the Mississippi River, target blue and flathead catfish along outside bends, behind wing dikes and on deep ledges dropping into the main channel. In spring and fall, drifting or suspending cut shad, skipjack or mooneye along the current seams is highly effective. Summer often calls for anchoring on ledges or at the heads of holes and putting out multiple rods at staggered depths. Channel cats are abundant in the Forked Deer and Obion rivers; focus on logjams, undercut banks and deeper bends with nightcrawlers, stinkbaits or cut bait fished tight to cover.
Largemouth bass fishing is strongest in the quieter waters around Dyersburg: backwater lakes, oxbows off the rivers, and small public lakes in the region. In early spring, look for warming coves with stumps and shallow grass; lipless crankbaits, spinnerbaits and Texas-rigged soft plastics excel. During the postspawn and summer months, bass slide to outside weed edges, creek-channel swings and any remaining wood cover. Pitch jigs or creature baits into cover, and work topwaters at first and last light around laydowns and flooded willows, especially when the rivers are up and backing into timber.
Dyersburg also offers reliable crappie action in backwaters, oxbows and area lakes. In late winter and early spring, crappie stage along drop-offs and deeper brush before moving shallow to spawn when water temps reach the low 60s. Vertical jig 1/32–1/16 oz tube jigs or minnows around stake beds, brushpiles and laydowns. As water warms, follow them back out to channel edges and deeper wood. Keeping baits just above the fish is critical, so use electronics or adjust depth frequently until you contact a school.
On the big river, sauger, white bass and drum round out the multi-species opportunities. Sauger stack below wing dikes, sandbars and at the mouths of the Forked Deer and Obion, especially in colder months. Vertical jig heavy lead heads tipped with minnows or soft plastics right on bottom in the current seams. White bass often chase shad on current breaks; small slab spoons and shad-imitating crankbaits work well when they’re feeding near the surface or along riprap banks.
For panfish like bluegill and redear sunfish, key on protected coves, small ponds and slack water off the main rivers. In late spring and early summer, look for beds in 2–5 feet of water on sand or fine gravel. A simple float rig with red worms, crickets or small pieces of nightcrawler will keep rods bent. When the sun is high, shift slightly deeper to the first drop or shade around docks, laydowns and cypress knees.
Water level is the major variable around Dyersburg. Rising water generally pushes fish shallow into newly flooded cover, while falling water pulls them to main channels, outside bends and more stable depths. Successful anglers watch river gauges closely and adjust: cast shallow spinnerbaits and flipping jigs into fresh weeds and willows on a rise, then move to channel edges, rock, and deeper brush with crankbaits, Carolina rigs and bottom rigs when levels drop and clear.
