Re: Where to Fish North of Smith Springs Cove on Tue., 9/10

[simplecircuit]

I’m not sure where to get one these days.
The copy I have came from a family friend of my fishing partner. It’s an old Army Corps survey map with topography, roads, fence lines, buildings, creeks, streams and other features on it. The original owner went through all 26 pages of the map and used markers to color in the current shoreline, add marinas/ramps and mark a lot of productive spots in different colors. Unfortunately, I don’t know what the different colors he used on the spots indicate. None of the spots are really “secrets” though. It does help to give you an idea of what is under the water. I really want to get one for Old Hickory, but don’t want to spend the time coloring it in. 😳 You might take a look at the Tennessee State Library and Archives.

I’ll check the name of the map tonight when I go home.
