TechniqueInline SpinnersSeasonSummerStructureLaydownsTrout fishing below Wolf Creek dam with a inline spinner is an absolute ball. 50+ fish is not uncommon., check the TVA schedule for generation schedule, less generation the better! The river offers lots of boulders, rock piles, current breaks and laydowns for the trout to ambush a spinner. Load the kayak, grab a spinning rod, grab a spinner, grab a buddy, grab a life jacket and head to the river!
