I'm going to be headed to Nashville at the end of May for work. Is there musky fishing within striking distance, say 3 hours of Nashville? Wondering if I should extend my stay by a day and fish down there or race back and fish MN opener...

Whynot,
Forget Dale hallow . Drive north to Green River lake or Cave Run for much better odds at boating a few really good Southern fish.
Check into hiring a guide for the first day.........

Yes, there is some real muskie possibilities on the Collins river and Great Fall reservoir just south of Nashville. Try Cory Allen or Duane Hickey. I don't have their web sites but if you do a google search on them you'll probably find them.

Thanks! I'll look into those places. If I go, it'll have to be a guide trip since I won't have my stuff.

I read that Melton Hill near Knoxville isn't too bad for ski's.

To answer you, yes. Me and Dwayne guide musky year around. Jase Bouldin and I start doing our night kayak trips about that time too, depending on river flow. Give me a call at 931-261-2483. I can give you Dwaynes number too if you call. Ill ask him first. Check out my website at www.stonesthrowadventures.com. we got a 52" on the river last year in May and were just an hour from downtown Nashville.

It would be well worth it to stay and fish muskie. Cory @ Stones Throw Adventure (Baryonyx from the post above) would definitely be able to get you on some fish then. Fishing shouldn't be to bad in May either.
