Thread: Cherokee

Anybody fished Cherokee lately? Results...any species.

Fished 6/16 & 6/17. Fished brush piles about 15 ft. Lots of short fish only 5 keepers Friday, one however was 15". Will attach a pic if I can figure out how to get it off my cel phone. Saturday was slower with only 2 keepers. We were fishing red/chart. tubes tight lined. Minnows were slow but nibbles were the trick both nights. Just cannot find the keepers on this lake. Maybe by the fall all these 9 1/2" fish will grow up.:D

I was at Cherokee from 6/15 to 6/17. Was fishing for stripers in the morning, didn't have much luck. Went fishing in the evenings by myself. Only had luck on 6/16. Got a small 5-6" bass to bite on a white curlytail jig (I was trying to fish for crappie... none).

I bought a non-resident license, so I'll be back (more than likely, soon). I'd really like to hook up with one of you TN boys and let you show me how to catch the crappie down there. I came down last year in late July and still had no luck with crappie. My great aunt has a camper in the Wa-Ni Village camp that I stay in.

Anyone on here fish for stripes at Cherokee?
