Thread: TVA River flow info not working

Same here, looked at it last night and was astounded at the amount of water estimated to be flowing into the area lakes. Several record levels were predicted for the TN River tributaries.

Be careful if you go out on the water anytime soon.

Around 175,000 cfs the next few days at Chickamauga Dam...

Flows are going to be up to 400,000 at KY Dam thanks to all that water you guys are sending our way. Inlet flow around 650,000. We'll probably be able to walk across the lake on the trees and other trash.

The lake level is going to be 368 by Friday. That's 9 feet over summer pool.

Its bad over here. Been on a 6 hr day trip and things are as high as I've seen it in my lifetime. There are main river buoys that are under water or washed away.

I did a 400+ mile round trip yesterday to check the lakes and tailraces I fish. It’s bad everywhere you go. Pickwick was spilling over 500,000 CFS.....Nickajack close to 200,000....Center Hill is at levels not seen since 1950. Not only can you not safely fish the lake....but may not be able to trout and crappie fish the tailrace for a month...if not two months as they have to bring the lake down 45 feet to build the new ramp at dam that they removed during dam repair. Even the little old Normandy Dam tailrace will not be fishable for quite a while. So what to do.....private lake and TWRA lakes are my only choices for a while. What concerns me....and I’ve seen it before.....this possibly could affect the spawn for crappie....bluegill....and the smallmouth I fish for. First my thoughts and prayers go out to those who lost their homes....I saw quite a bit of that yesterday. Now if you’re able to fish where you’re at...good for you......but for many it’s going to be a a while to get on some fish.

Looking at current data for Chickamauga and Watts Bar dams, the Chick is at summer level and slowly falling and Watts Bar is 2.5 ft below summer level. Bad news is that it is raining at my house again. Not very hard, but still raining.
