<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> - Paradise Found <strong>Norris</strong> Dam Area<br />
Nestled in the foothills of the Cumberland Mountains about<br />
20 miles north of Knoxville, just off I-75, lies <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong>.<br />
Well known for its fishing, skiing and boating on its deep<br />
clean waters, the lake consists of two major rivers and<br />
numerous creeks. It extends 56 miles up the Powell River<br />
and 73 miles into the Clinch River. Since the lake is not fed<br />
by another major dam, the water is cleaner and once the<br />
sun begins to warm the water in spring, it tends to maintain<br />
a steady warm temperature until fall.<br />
Recreational use of <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> exceeds that of any other<br />
TVA tributary lake. At normal summer pool, with the lake<br />
level at 1020 (sea level), there are over 34,000 acres of<br />
surface water. Endless fun-filled activities await including<br />
boating, watersports, fishing, swimming, scuba diving and<br />
relaxing. <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> has over 56 species of fish and is well<br />
known for its striper fishing. An abundance of wildlife can<br />
be seen around the lake including deer, turkey, great blue<br />
herons and eagles, along with cows and horses grazing<br />
around the shoreline in some places.<br />
Along the 809 miles of shoreline, many activities can<br />
be enjoyed like golfing, hiking, horseback riding, rock<br />
climbing, cliff jumping and camping. The shoreline includes<br />
over 50 miles of islands, numerous picnic areas, caves,<br />
cliffs, beaches and gradual sloping shorelines. With<br />
hundreds of secluded coves, 3 state parks, 2 wildlife management<br />
areas and 59 public access sites, it’s no wonder<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> has become a favorite vacation destination.<br />
The marinas of <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> offer all kinds of boat rentals,<br />
accommodations; including on the lake, lake front and lake<br />
view, a great selection of food at their restaurants, groceries,<br />
snacks and supplies to make your vacation complete.<br />
Some marinas have live bands, karaoke and theme parties<br />
on the weekends, along with party rooms available for<br />
reunions, weddings and business functions. Don’t miss<br />
all the marinas’ firework shows around the 4th of July, the<br />
Crownline and Malibu gatherings, holiday parties and<br />
get-togethers on the lake. "Fire on the Water" at Sequoyah<br />
Marina is a show you do not want to miss. Visit the marinas'<br />
websites for events, parties, dates and times. Get your<br />
family, friends and fellow boaters together and plan your<br />
trip today. Make <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> “Your Vacation Paradise”.<br />
The <strong>Norris</strong> Dam Area encompasses the Clinch River from<br />
the dam to the 19 day marker at Loyston Point, along with<br />
Big Creek and Cove Creek. The <strong>Norris</strong> Dam Marina<br />
overlooks the lake where Cove Creek meets the Clinch<br />
River at the dam. Cove Creek flows from Cove <strong>Lake</strong> State<br />
Park to the dam. Along Cove Creek there are two marinas,<br />
Twin Cove Marina and Mountain <strong>Lake</strong> Marina. The <strong>Norris</strong><br />
Dam State Park and the Cove Creek Wildlife area border<br />
Cove Creek where it meets the Clinch River. The <strong>Norris</strong><br />
Dam State Park also borders the Clinch River up past Big<br />
Creek before you get to Sequoyah Marina. Farther up is<br />
the Anderson County Park located where the Clinch and<br />
Powell Rivers merge. Stardust Marina is just around the<br />
corner from the merge on the Clinch River (day marker 9).<br />
Big Creek flows from before the Campbell County Park<br />
just outside of LaFollette to the Clinch River. Indian River<br />
Marina and Whitman Hollow Marina are both located on<br />
Big Creek.<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> Dam, the first project built by the Tennessee Valley<br />
Authority (TVA), was started in 1933. Named for George<br />
W. <strong>Norris</strong>, a U.S. Senator from Nebraska who was the<br />
author of the legislation that created the TVA. The dam<br />
was completed in 1936 and the lake was filled by 1937.<br />
At 265 feet tall and 1,860 feet long, <strong>Norris</strong> Dam provides<br />
flood control and recreation; generates hydroelectricity<br />
and helps improve navigation of the Tennessee River. The<br />
waters of <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> have over 800 miles of shoreline<br />
including dozens of islands. With a surface area of more<br />
than 34,000 acres and depths over 200 feet, <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong><br />
holds about 830 billion gallons of water. The dam has two<br />
turbine hydroelectric generators that can produce up to<br />
100,800 kilowatts of electric.The spill waters offer great<br />
trout fishing, and eventually flow into the Ohio River.<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> Dam State Park surrounds the dam with many<br />
facilities and activities including hiking trails, playgrounds,<br />
tennis courts, swimming pools and recreational programs.<br />
Campgrounds, picnic areas and cabin rentals are also<br />
available. There is a visitors center on one side of the dam<br />
and an overlook on the other side that provides a great<br />
vista for photos. A picnic area is at the base of the dam.<br />

Fishing on <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong><br />
The clear deep waters of <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> create<br />
a perfect habitat for rockfish, walleye, catfish<br />
largemouth, smallmouth, bluegill and crappie.<br />
Famous for its trophy-size stripers, walleye<br />
and catches of black crappie, <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong><br />

License Information<br />
A Tennessee fishing license is required if<br />
you take fish or attempt to take fish (including<br />
crayfish) by any method or if you assist<br />

license, for either all fish or no trout. If you<br />
are under 13, you do not need a license.<br />
Annual fishing licenses go on sale February<br />
18, the start of prime fishing and are valid<br />
until the last day of February the following<br />
year. Licenses are available by phone, on the<br />
web, by mail or from the county court clerks,<br />
some sporting goods stores, hardware stores<br />
and marinas. To purchase a license or for<br />
more information, call 888-814-8972 or visit<br />

heavy penalties.<br />
• Shooting in the water with any type of firearm to injure or take fish or turtles is prohibited.<br />
Spotted bass<br />
Small white spinners, plastic grubs on<br />
leadhead jigs, doll flies, and crawfish<br />
crankbaits are all excellent.<br />

Use Crankbaits, top water lures, Flukes,<br />
Bass Assassins, spinners, and Carolinarigged<br />
lizards during April, May, and<br />

Smallmouth bass<br />
Good lures for <strong>Norris</strong> smallmouth are Silver<br />
Buddies, 1/4 oz (or smaller) doll flies, doll<br />
flies tipped with minnows, float-and-fly rigs,<br />
and large shiners. On windy days in late<br />
winter, cast small crankbaits to wind-swept,<br />
rocky banks. In early spring smallmouth<br />
spawn on gravel points which reach out<br />
into the main channels. Spinners or pig’n<br />
jigs fished at night on steep, boulder-strewn<br />
banks catch good smallmouth year-‘round.<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> Fishing Tips<br />
Thanks to www.anglerguide.com<br />
Crappie<br />
Quality angling is best in the back of major<br />
embayments such as Big Sycamore Creek,<br />
Davis Creek and Big Creek. Upper river<br />
sections above Point 15 (Powell) and<br />
Point 31 (Clinch) are also good. Fish close<br />
to the brush piles or downed trees in the<br />
winter, early spring or late fall months. Small<br />
minnows, plastic grubs, flies tipped with<br />
minnows, and small crankbaits work best.<br />
Walleye<br />
During river runs, troll or jig with minnowtipped<br />
doll flies, Sparkle Tails, AC Shiners,<br />
Rapalas, or Shad Raps. In late spring, night<br />
anglers cast crankbaits into flooded weeds.<br />
Trolling with Jet Lures tipped with night<br />
crawlers, spinner-and-night crawler rigs,<br />
or with deep running Long-Billed Rebels<br />
and Model 911 RedFins is popular by the<br />
end of May on the lower end. Night fishing<br />
with jigging spoons, alewife or shad accounts<br />
for good catches in the summer.<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> Fish Habitat Enhancement<br />
The TWRA and volunteers from the public sector, have worked to improve fish habitat in <strong>Norris</strong><br />
<strong>Lake</strong> for many years. More than 21,000 structures have been placed in the lake since 1992.<br />
A wide variety of fish attractors have been used in an attempt to concentrate fish for anglers.<br />
These include brush piles which are used by many game fish, and stake beds which are primarily<br />
for concentrating crappie. These attractors work well, but must continually be refurbished. Bald<br />
cypress and black willow trees have been planted in drawdown areas to create additional, long<br />
lasting habitat. Shoreline seeding of grasses during the winter drawdown has the potential of<br />
creating spawning habitat and cover for young fish. Inconsistent water levels, however, have<br />
rendered any shoreline seeding projects impractical. Spawning benches have been constructed<br />
to provide habitat for smallmouth bass reproduction.<br />

Float Houses on <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong><br />
Float houses are unique to <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong>.<br />
They are just what the name says, floating<br />
houses. Their frames are built on a floating<br />
foundation. Some of these homes have<br />
every amenity you can think of including<br />
central air conditioning, thousands of<br />
square feet, up to 2 plus stories, private<br />
boat slips, hot tubs, water slides and<br />
more. Enjoy all the conveniences of<br />

The interiors are just like home with hard<br />
wood floors, wall to wall carpeting, marble<br />
countertops, ice makers, washer and dryer,<br />
cable TV, internet, utility rooms, walk in<br />
closets and full size jacuzzi tubs. They<br />
range from 1 bedroom up to 4 bedrooms<br />
plus loft with 3 baths and can sleep up to<br />
16. You can barely feel any motion when<br />
inside a float house and will forget you are<br />
floating on water until you walk outside.<br />
Most float houses are tied up on a buoy<br />
line out in the no wake section of the<br />
marina where they have water on every<br />
side. You will need a boat to get to these<br />
float houses. You can enjoy a 360 degree<br />
waterfront view, all one step from the lake.<br />
Others are moored on the marina’s cat<br />
walk so you can walk right on, or drive<br />
your golf cart right to your front door.<br />
Float houses are available for rent and<br />
for sale. Imagine a vacation home that<br />
you can pull your boat right up to the front<br />
door and park one step away. Your family<br />
and your friends can swim and fish off<br />
your front, side or back porch, all in the<br />
protected waters of a no wake harbor.<br />
Some people live year-round on their<br />
float homes, always waking to the sun<br />
rising on the water and a beautiful view.<br />
Conveniently located 4 miles off 1-75 TN exit 128<br />
at Mountain <strong>Lake</strong> Marina and RV Resort with<br />

Powell River Area<br />
The Powell River is one of the two rivers that makes up<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong>. It meets the Clinch River about 10 miles<br />
northeast of the dam around Anderson County Park at day<br />
marker 9. It extends 56 miles northeastward eventually<br />
flowing under 25E just south of Cumberland Gap. The<br />
Powell River offers scenic views of the Cumberland<br />
Mountains to the northwest and the Chuck Swan Wildlife<br />
Management Area to the southeast.<br />
The Powell River offers many full service marinas offering<br />
everything you need from lodging and restaurants to boat<br />
rentals and repairs. Shanghai Resort is located at day<br />
marker 10, not far from where Cedar Creek meets the<br />
Powell River. Between day markers 10 and 11 is Deerfield<br />
Resort, Deerfield Cove Marina and The Tiki Club where<br />
you can enjoy a drink and a bite to eat. Just around the<br />
next corner is Springs Dock Resort. Flat Hollow Marina<br />
Resort and Blue Springs Dock are both a little further<br />
down on the Powell River around day marker 14. The<br />
Powell River continues over 25 more miles past a car ferry<br />
and through a lot of undisturbed areas, great for skiing.<br />
There are two major creeks that feed into the Powell<br />
River, Cedar Creek and Davis Creek. Sugar Hollow Marina<br />
is the only dock on Cedar Creek and is close to the Cedar<br />
Creek Bridge. Davis Creek enters the Powell River at<br />
day marker 12 behind an Island where it is easy to miss.<br />
Powell Valley Resort is located at day marker 13 on Davis<br />
Creek where Doakes Creek splits off. The view of the<br />
Cumberland Mountains from Davis Creek is awesome.<br />
There are many secluded coves in the Chuck Swan<br />
Wildlife Management Area that borders a lot of The<br />
Powell River. For an exciting day, hike into the Chuck<br />
Swan Wildlife Management Area and discover the lookout<br />
tower (GPS 36.37210,-83.89310) or Panther Cave. It’s a<br />
good idea to take a gps so you don’t get lost.<br />
The Powell River has a lot of wildlife if you keep your<br />
eyes open. Along the shores watch out for deer, great<br />
blue heron, bald eagles and turkeys. Sometimes you may<br />
catch an eagle swooping down to catch a fish or a deer<br />
swimming across the lake and of course fish jumping.<br />

<strong>Norris</strong> Highlands was settled by the migration<br />
of people from England, Scotland, Ireland,<br />
France and Germany who followed Daniel<br />
Boone's mapping of the Cumberland Gap<br />
Gateway. Sharps Fort was one of the first<br />
settlements, west of the Appalachia. Its<br />
original location is in Big Ridge State Park.<br />
Big Ridge State Park<br />
Nestled on 3,400 acres on the shores of<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> with cabins and campground,<br />
hiking trails and Historic Grist Mill on site.<br />
Hike Sharp's Station Trail to the one of the<br />
two first settlements founded in 1780 west<br />
of the Appalachians.<br />
During the Civil War, Eastern Tennessee<br />
was the heart of many battles, victories, and<br />
defeats. During the war this area was bitterly<br />
split between The Union and The Confederacy<br />
which lead to families and friends fighting<br />
against each other in the war.<br />
The<br />
Wilderness<br />
Road in the<br />
Cumberland<br />
Gap was<br />
turned, held<br />
by the Union<br />
twice and<br />
the South<br />
twice during<br />
the Civil<br />
war.<br />
Cumberland Gap<br />
National Historical Park<br />
Rich in American Indian, early pioneer and<br />
Civil War history, offering 70 miles of trails,<br />
tours of the historic Hensley Settlement,<br />
cave tours and camping. The Visitor Center<br />
includes a museum, dramatic films, crafts<br />
and bookstore. Spectacular overlooks,<br />
unique rock formations, cascading waterfalls,<br />
and an extensive trail system can be<br />
found in the park's 24,000 acres.<br />
The Appalachian Mountains are a rich<br />
source of coal and with mining comes<br />
history. The <strong>Norris</strong><br />
Highlands also has a<br />
history of the impact<br />
of coal mining on its<br />
families and communities<br />
such as the Coal<br />
Creek War which<br />
involved mine owners<br />
replacing striking free<br />
miners with “convict<br />
lease prisoners.”<br />
Fly Fish on the Clinch River<br />
Many experienced anglers consider the<br />
Clinch tail waters that flows 13 miles from<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> Dam, to be the finest trout fisheries<br />
in the Country. The clear, shallow, slowmoving<br />
Clinch demands a stealthy<br />
approach, delicate presentation, small flies<br />
and draf-free drifts. To consistently catch<br />
its wild, wary rainbow and brown trout<br />
requires concentration, careful execution<br />
and patience.<br />
Lower Clinch River<br />
The Lower Clinch River Watershed is located in East Tennessee and includes parts of<br />
Anderson, Campbell, Grainger, Knox, Loudon, Morgan, Roane, and Union Counties.<br />
Legend has it that settlers named the waterway “Clinch” based on stories that a Native<br />
American was chasing a white man across the river and "clenched" the native, drowning<br />
him. Alternative explanations include an early explorer falling off his raft yelling “Clench<br />
me.” There are numerous historical references to the Clinch’s River and the Pellissippi<br />
River (the Native American name meaning “winding waters”).<br />

A New Deal:<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> was the first TVA <strong>Lake</strong> which,<br />
although providing jobs and electricity to the<br />
area, displaced multiple families and forever<br />
lost the communities of Loyston and Lost<br />
Creek into the depths<br />
of the lake. The<br />
Civilian Conservation<br />
Core camps, which<br />
housed the workers<br />
dot the lake as living<br />

Powell River<br />
The Powell River Watershed in East Tennessee is located in Campbell, Claiborne,<br />
Hancock, and Union Counties. It is named for a man called Powell who apparently<br />
carved his name into many of the trees of the area while accompanying the exploration<br />
party of Dr. Thomas Walker in the mid-eighteenth century. His name appeared so<br />
frequently on trees in the valley of this river that later explorers and early pioneers<br />
came to call the stream "Powell's River" and the valley "Powell's Valley".<br />

depths of the water. The town was built by John Loy in the early 19th century and was<br />
an important trading center for local farmers. By the 1930s, Loyston had a population<br />
of about 70 residents, and consisted of a post office and several small businesses<br />
when <strong>Norris</strong> Dam construction began. Loyston Sea is located in a 1 mile wide<br />
section of the lake along the shores of Big Ridge State Park.<br />

Sharp”s Fort- Big Ridge<br />
In 1761, a group of long hunters hunted in the Clinch and Powell valleys from a station camp<br />
in southwestern Virginia. The long hunting expeditions of the 1760s were followed by a flood<br />
of settlers in the 1770s and 1780s. In the waning years of the American Revolution, small forts<br />
sprang up throughout the Tennessee Valley to provide migrants with rest stops and protect<br />
local settlers from hostile Cherokee attacks. In the 1780s, a German pioneer named Henry<br />
Sharp established Sharp's Station on the banks of the Clinch in what is now the northern section<br />
of Big Ridge State Park. Peter Graves, a settler living at Sharp's Station, was ambushed and<br />
killed atop Big Ridge while turkey hunting in November of 1794. Sharp's Station itself was<br />
attacked the following month, although the settlers successfully fought off the attackers.<br />

Houseboating on <strong>Norris</strong><br />
Picture yourself on a luxurious houseboat with all the<br />
comforts and amenities of home, just one step from the<br />
lake. Enjoy cruising the lake, or swimming and sunbathing<br />
in your own private cove. When evening comes you can<br />
watch picturesque sunsets relaxing in your hot tub. After<br />
it sets, go star gazing and watch for shooting stars.<br />
There is every size houseboat you can imagine on <strong>Norris</strong><br />
<strong>Lake</strong> from one bedroom to 8 staterooms with queen size<br />
beds and sinks in each and 2 full bathrooms. Amenities<br />
on houseboats can include central heat and air, fully<br />
equipped kitchens, washer and dryer, ice makers, trash<br />
compactors, dishwashers, slides, hot tubs, satellite radio,<br />
large screen TV’s with DVD and wet bars on the top deck.<br />
Houseboats are a great place for family and friends to<br />
spend a vacation for a few days, or a couple weeks. Tied<br />
up in a cove in 40 - 100 foot deep water, a houseboat<br />
makes a perfect home base for friends to meet, swim,<br />
fish, party or sunbathe. There have been many weddings,<br />
bachelor parties and church services held on houseboats<br />
out in private coves. Tie up to the shore for a picnic or take<br />
a hike in the Chuck Swan Wildlife Area or one of the 3<br />
state parks or various county parks on the lake. Cruising<br />
on a houseboat is a thrill because at 7-10 mph, they are<br />
easy to drive. If you are adventurous enough, a night<br />
cruise can be awesome driving by the light of a full moon.<br />
And don’t forget attending a fireworks show at one of the<br />
marinas can also be a blast.<br />
Rental houseboats are available with up to 8 bedrooms<br />
and two full baths, so bring your family and friends for the<br />
best vacation ever. Less than 30 houseboats are available<br />
for rent on the entire lake, so finding the perfect cove is as<br />
easy as driving them. Marina owners will take the time to<br />
show you how. Experience the ultimate Vacation on a<br />
houseboat. Visit the website for more information.<br />

Clinch River East<br />
The Clinch River East Area consist of the Clinch River<br />
starting just past Stardust Marina around day marker 9<br />
and continues past Loyston Point (day marker 19)<br />
where the lake opens up to the widest part. On the big<br />
open lake up Mill Creek you will find Waterside Marina<br />
to the southwest. Along the northwestern shore the<br />
Chuck Swan Wildlife Management Area borders the<br />
lake. In this part of the lake, there are over a dozen<br />
islands to be found. Be careful, there is also a lot of<br />
shallow areas especially up Lost Creek past Sunset<br />
Bay, just watch the channel.<br />
Big Ridge State Park is almost completely surrounded<br />
by <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> between day markers 21 and 22 with<br />
many secluded and protective coves. The Big Ridge<br />
Dam overflows the parks lake into <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong>.<br />
Going up the Clinch River just past the big open lake<br />
through a small passage and close to even more<br />
islands, Hickory Star Marina sits on the southern shore.<br />
<strong>Lake</strong>view Marina, and Beach Island Marina are further<br />
up a few miles around day markers 27 and the 33<br />
bridge. Again watch the channel through these areas<br />
to keep safe.<br />
Stop in at Bubba Brew Sports Bar and Grill at Beach<br />
Island Marina to catch the game or for good food and<br />
drinks. Bubba is one of the few places on the lake that<br />
serves liquor.<br />
Past the 33 bridge is Cedar Grove Marina by day<br />
marker 28. Straight Creek Dock is just around the<br />
corner before you get to Lone Mountain Shores. Lone<br />
Mountain Boat Dock is between day marker 30 and 31<br />
close to Big Sycamore Creek. Woodlake Golfcourse<br />
and <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> Landing is also close to Lone Mountain<br />
Boat Dock.<br />
<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> continues to wind back and forth up the<br />
Clinch River for over 15 more undisturbed miles till it<br />
flows under 25E where it becomes too shallow to navigate.<br />
On some shores you may see cows and horses<br />
grazing the fields and wadding in the lake.<br />

Watersports on <strong>Norris</strong><br />
<strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> has become a favorite among waterskiers,<br />
wake boarders, kneeboarders and jet skiers. Thanks to<br />
an abundance of coves and corners to break the wind,<br />
the lake provides mile after mile of smooth water. Some<br />
of the best ski water anywhere, referred to as “glass”,<br />
can be found on the lake along with ski courses for those<br />
looking for a challenge.<br />
If you or your kids like to be pulled behind a boat on a<br />
tube or other inflatables, you can always find an open<br />
part of the lake to have fun. Most marinas rent ski boats,<br />
personal water crafts, pontoon boats, skis, wakeboards<br />
and towable tubes for that great day on the lake.<br />
On <strong>Norris</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> you will probably see people water<br />
skiing, wakeboarding, kneeboarding, surfing, trick skiing,<br />
wakeskating, barefoot skiing and riding an air chair or<br />
on one of many different inflatable toys and tubes being<br />
towed behind a boat. On Fathers’ Day every year one<br />
family (husband, wife and 3 kids) all ski at the same<br />
time behind one boat.<br />
One of the best thrills as a boater is to get someone up<br />
on waterskis or on a wakeboard for the first time. To see<br />
the expression on a kids face, or even an adults who just<br />
learned to ski is a site to see. If you do not know how to<br />
ski, ask someone at the dock. Boaters are some of the<br />
nicest people and you can probable find someone to<br />
take the time to help you or your kids learn.<br />
Another great way to see the lake is on a personal<br />
water craft (PWC). These watercrafts can be called Jet<br />
Ski’s, Waverunners or Seadoos. Many of the marinas<br />
have these for rent by the hour or for a full day. This is a<br />
great way to explore the lake. Most PWC’s are powerful<br />
enough to pull a skier. With a very little wake to cross<br />
behind a PWC, it can be easy and a lot of fun to go back<br />
and forth. If you have never ridden one, make sure you<br />
get proper driving and safety instructions before you<br />
leave the dock. They can be a lot of fun, but if you do not<br />
know how to operate them properly, they can be very<br />
dangerous. Be safe, be smart and have a great time!<br />
