Fishing Overview for Nickajack Dam

The Nickajack Dam tailwater is prized for powerful current lines that stack striped bass, sauger, and white bass, plus big blue and flathead catfish; anglers rip jigs on the bottom in winter, work swimbaits and spoons through boils in spring, and drift cut bait through summer seams—mirroring the productive tailraces at Wilson Dam.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.
