Spotted Bass
Baileyton, Tennessee, may not be the first place that comes to mind for spotted bass, but the nearby Nolichucky River and its tributaries hold surprisingly good populations. These rivers provide the fast-moving, rocky habitat that spotted bass prefer. Spring and fall are the prime times to target them, as they become more active in cooler water temperatures. Focus on areas with current breaks, such as behind boulders or near submerged logs. Small crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and jigs are effective lures. A key to success in the Nolichucky is to be prepared to move and cover water. Spots tend to be fairly localized. Public access is available at several bridge crossings and along certain stretches of the river. Be mindful of the current and slippery rocks. The spotted bass in this area are known for their feisty attitude, making for exciting fishing even if they aren't trophy-sized.
