| I was on a Tennessee fishing website that talked about muskies in Dale Hollow, and I hadn't previously been aware that it had muskies. It even claimed that the lake had natural reproduction going on, which if true seemed surprising. Does anyone have any experience there, or on any other lakes in TN? I've been contemplating moving to TN and a real muskie fishery would definately be a pro to doing so.

| After searching the threads I found most the info I was looking for, but if anyone would still like to comment then please do so. I guess I should have searched before posting. |

Location: West Chester, OH | Search Melton Hill, TN's newest musky fishery.
Also notice TN's proximity to KY - Cave Run, Green River & Buckhorn. It's not LOTW but you could do worse! |

Location: Athens, Ohio | I've fished Dale for muskies with Freshwater Hall of Fame member Fred McClintock, it has what you say: natural repro despite the smallmouth guys slitting a muskie throat here and there. Check out DaleHollowMuskies.com or trophyguideservice.com. Fred would be happy to answer any of your questions. He mostly trolls during our winter season.
Dale is expected to get hammered this year by the Buckeye Armada, since Lake Cumberland (the Armada's home port) is experiencing dam trouble and very low water conditions. There are also muskie in Norris and several of the streams closer to Nashville. Tn's my home state, it has much to offer both residents and visitors; you could do much worse for a place to call home. m |

Location: Hayward, Wisconsin | Back in the 70' there were a couple of guys that caught multiple 35-40 POUND class muskies every year in January and February. The stream feeding Dale is a "native" muskie stream. |
