WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Norris Lake is a 34,000-acre TVA reservoir in northeastern Tennessee, the first reservoir built by the Tennessee Valley Authority in 1936. Its exceptionally clear water, dramatic limestone bluffs, and outstanding striped bass, walleye, smallmouth bass, and largemouth bass fishing make it one of the finest and most beautiful TVA reservoir fishing destinations in the region. Spot Features: Norris Lake is a 34,000-acre TVA reservoir on the Clinch and Powell rivers in Anderson, Campbell, and Union counties, Tennessee, the first TVA reservoir constructed (1936), featuring crystal-clear water, dramatic limestone bluffs, and excellent multi-species fishing. Striped bass by trolling or jigging near schooling fish, walleye with jig-and-minnow rigs, smallmouth along the rocky canyon walls, largemouth in the coves. Seasonality: Striped bass are the marquee species at Norris Lake, most active and sought-after in fall and winter when they school in the main lake and below the dam. Walleye fishing peaks in spring during the spawning run and in fall. Smallmouth bass are most aggressive in the rocky, clear-water sections in late spring and summer. Largemouth bass peak in spring during spawning.
