Nestled between the Great Smoky Mountains and the Cumberland Mountains, Norris Lake has been a gorgeous area of Tennessee for decades. Surrounded by beautiful state parks and huge wildlife areas (one of which includes a trail marked by Daniel Boone!), Norris Lake is a great place for both hunting and fishing when the season is right.

Today it is quickly becoming one of the hottest lakes in the area for bass fishing. Especially, in the month of March. Of the sixty-plus fish found in Norris Lake catches can include Brown and Rainbow trout, striper bass, small and largemouth bass. Walleye, rockfish, lake perch, bluegill, catfish and crappie can also be found. The lake supports warm-water, cool-water as well as cold-water sport species.

The abundance of deep water coves, pristine shoreline, numerous natural stone caves and depth of Norris Lake make it perfect for recreational and sport fishing. The best times to enjoy the recreational fishing prospects in Norris Lake are the spring months of April, May and June.
