George:

April is a great time to visit them. The one I am most familiar with
is the Hiawassee in the SE corner. Last time I was there (Oct) the
water level with no generator running was lower than I remembered when
I used to fish it frequently. Personally I think the best time to fish
it is on the tail end of a release when the water is starting to drop
or when they were pulsing one generator.

There's other waters to fish beyond that if you're interested. What
area of TN are you going to be near?

Near Crossville. I'm looking at the Clinch, since a couple of sites
refer to it as wading friendly. But I'm always open to other
suggestions.
