High water is the theme across middle Tennessee today. Rivers like the Caney Fork are high and look to remain that way for an extended amount of time. Upstream, Great Falls Reservoir is dumping a lot of water right now, like 59,398 cfs and still rising. All that water will end up downstream in Center Hill Lake which means it will eventually will come on down through the tailwater section.
The Cumberland Plateau region and much of east Tennessee is under a flood warning as many small streams have burst their banks. Needless to say, fishing will be on the back burner for a while as water levels return to normal. The exception to this will be with the anglers chasing large fish. For those in the know, this might be one of the best times to chase a trophy.
If you can, get out there and throw streamers! You just might tie into the fish of a lifetime...
Keep all that rain in middle TN. We don't want it up here in upper east TN.
