Did you throw crappie jigs and in line spinners? Also, if there isn't current, it can be tough.

I like to throw a double white crappie jig, when the TN Tarpons start running.

What you mostly see breaking the surface down there are usually long nose gar.

You can if you're near a bridge light @ the river park.

If the dam has it lights on is the fishing actually better

Panther Martins, rooster tails, and small jigs up stream from the rail road bridge. Start where the power lines cross the river. Also fish around the rock pile in front of the spill gates.
