If Spotted Bass are on your radar, Morristown, Tennessee, and the surrounding waters of Cherokee Lake provide ample opportunity. Cherokee Lake is a well-known Spotted Bass fishery, offering diverse structure and a healthy population. These aggressive fish thrive in the lake's rocky bluffs and submerged timber. Focus on areas with steeper banks and rocky points. Unlike Largemouth, Spotted Bass often hold in deeper water, especially during the warmer months. Carolina rigs, deep-diving crankbaits, and jigs are effective. A great access point is the Grainger County ramp, which provides easy access to the lower end of the lake. Spotted bass fishing is good year round, but the pre-spawn and post-spawn periods are especially productive. A local tip: Pay attention to your electronics. Spotted bass often school tightly around specific structure, and locating these schools is key to consistent success. The Spotted Bass in Cherokee Lake are known for their fighting ability, providing a thrilling experience for anglers.
