The spring post spawn bite is on fire!
The spring post spawn bite is on fire!
Apr 29, 2025 Mt. Juliet
Over the last few week the bug fish have move back out if the creek and are closer to the main lake chanel. They starting to key in on big gizzard shad and blue blue gils. My last two trips out out put 15-20 solid fish in the boat, including several nice stripers. Bucktail jigs trolled have been very effective as well. Should only continue to get better as we get into summer! Lets go fishing!

The Lake is On Fire!
The Lake is On Fire!
Apr 27, 2025 Mt. Juliet
The bite has been absolutely on fire! Weโ€™re consistently putting 15โ€“20+ fish in the boat every trip, with a great mix of big Hybrids and Striped Bass. Over the weekend, we landed multiple Hybrids over 10 pounds and several Striped Bass pushing 15+ pounds. Water temps have been holding around 69ยฐ, but with warmer days ahead, we expect the lake to heat up quicklyโ€”and the fishing action should stay just as hot. If youโ€™ve been waiting for the right time to get on the water, this is it. The big fish are feeding aggressively, and every trip has been packed with non-stop action. Book your trip with Nashville Fishing Guides today and come experience the madness while the bite is at its peak!

Lightโ€™s Out Bait Bite
Lightโ€™s Out Bait Bite
Apr 17, 2025 Mt. Juliet
Overview This week has brought thrilling conditions for anglers, with water temperatures reaching a steady 60 degrees alongside the influence of the full moon. These factors have triggered the hybrid stripers into spawn mode, making it a prime time for some incredible catches. The fish have shifted their behavior, moving away from their suspended positions over the main lake river channel and heading toward the shorelines and channel-adjacent flats, where they are now feeding aggressively. We caught fish as fast as we could bait the hook, highlighting the intensity of the bite right now! Fishing Conditions โ€ข Water Temperature: 60ยฐF โ€ข Moon Phase: Full Moon โ€ข Fish Activity: High โ€“ Hybrids in spawn mode, actively feeding โ€ข Location: Shorelines and channel-adjacent flats Target Species โ€ข Hybrid Striped Bass: The stars of this week, with sizes ranging from 10 to 12 pounds, and occasional stripers making an appearance. โ€ข Best Time to Fish: Now is the ideal window for targeting trophy fish, as the spawning activity peaks. Tips for Success Focus on trolling or still-fishing techniques along the shorelines and channel-adjacent flats where the hybrids are concentrated. Use live bait or lures trolled at the right depth to target these actively feeding fish, especially near drop-offs or structure. The full moon is boosting their feeding activity, so early morning or late evening sessions could maximize your chances. Be ready for a strong fight with these hefty 10-12 lb. fish! Outlook The current conditions suggest that the next few days will remain excellent for trophy hunting. As the spawn progresses, monitor water temperature trends and adjust your trolling or bait placement strategy accordingly. This is a fantastic opportunity to land a prize catch, so make the most of it! Tight lines and happy fishing!

Percy Priest Lake Fishing Report โ€“ Week
Percy Priest Lake Fishing Report โ€“ Week
Mar 22, 2025 Mt. Juliet
The bite started off a bit tough this week due to muddy water from the weekend storms. Visibility was limited, especially up-lake, but conditions have improved steadily throughout the week. Water temps are now climbing into the 54โ€“56ยฐF range, and thatโ€™s triggered some good movement as fish begin their prespawn migration down the lake. Weโ€™ve started to see more consistent action, and the bite is definitely picking up. Live bait is beginning to produce, especially for quality bites, and A-rigs are putting solid numbers in the boat. The hybrids have been active, and weโ€™ve landed several over 8 pounds this weekโ€”strong, healthy fish that are feeding up and ready to fight. Things are heating up on Percy Priest, and itโ€™s only getting better from here!
