Largemouth Bass
If you're headed to Palmer, Tennessee, and have largemouth bass on your mind, you're likely considering Nickajack Lake. This reservoir on the Tennessee River is the prime spot for bass in the area. The bass fishing here is best in the spring and fall, when the water temperatures are more moderate. During the spring spawning season, target shallow coves and weed beds with spinnerbaits or soft plastics. In the fall, focus on points and drop-offs with crankbaits or Carolina rigs. A local tip: check the TVA's lake information page for water release schedules from Nickajack Dam, as this can greatly affect the bass activity. The bass in Nickajack are known for their aggressive strikes, especially in the early morning and late evening. Don't be afraid to experiment with topwater lures during these times. Access is available at several public boat ramps around the lake, but be prepared for some boat traffic, especially on weekends.
