On lake 21 feb at 8am to130 pm got 3 large mouth 3.7 3.5 5.9 got 2smallers ones on suspending jerk bait large one on white spinner bait gotta fish em slow

I was on normandy first thing saturday morning april 21st windy and no sunshine raining off and on all day. Every large mouth i caught i pulled them off with a Carolina Rig. Seems like there still on bed cause i was pulling in the big ones and they all still had bloody tails. 6\" watermelon seed lizard was doing the trick along with watermelon speed craws. Gravel Banks was great in about 4 to 6 feet of water. Good Luck Riley Creek and Devil\'s Backbone is were ya need to be.

Wednesday Jan25 Of course I called some friends after the day I had yesterday on Normandy and sure enough a trip came out of it. I went to Normandy today with Brandon and Matt from Lebanon TN. We started out cranking a shad rap and managed to catch a few fish. The TVA had pulled the water and it was down about 10" from the previous day making the fish want to suspend. We left Riley Creek where we had started and I had caught the fish yesterday and headed to Carroll creek. In Carroll we managed to catch a nice mess of fish including a yellow perch, didn't know that they were even in Normandy more on that later. All in all we caught our fish on small white tube jigs and shad raps. We managed to catch 15 kentuckies, 1 smallmouth, 7 largemouth and 4 big crappie and the yellow perch. Come to find out the perch weighed in at 1.8lbs and was just over 14" and qualified for the TARP, Tennessee Anglers Recognition Program. We are taking the steps with Bass Pro to try and get the fish into their tank here at the Nashville Bass Pro. Overall a great day and pretty unique experience. Thanks for the fun day guys.

Friday Dec 30 I have another report today for Normandy Lake. The bite here today was slow to start the main lake here was also extremely rough, however the secondary points in the creeks were on fire. The fish were eating Lucky Craft 78SP pointers fished on 10lb Vicious Fluorocarbon line, jerked slowly off the tips of the points. The bites came in flurries as the fish seemed to be bunched up. Most of the strikes came on the windblown sides of the points. Water temps here ranged from 48-49 on the main lake to 50-52 in the creeks. Contact Mark at www.adamsguidesvc.com to book your trip for 2012!!! Let's go fishing soon.

Uh huh! There are too striped bass!

I would like to know who is responsible for updating the fishing reports. It would be a great service for people living close to Normandy Lake to have updated reports. Most of the reports are very old and some not even dated. Can the TWRA or fishing conservationist update this for us?

Surface water temp 4-10-11. 64-68 deg

Yes it is useable. It has been most of the winter. I live nearby and cant tell you when they are going to move it. They move it without rime or reason.

"Anyone out there know if the ""floating"" dock @ Barton Spring ramp is usable or was it locked up as it usually is for the winter? I have not been there yet this year. I do not understand why they lock it up as it is capable of being used even @ winter pool??!!! rrgs@blomand.net"
