All the comforts of home By Beth Underwood
S
ome say if you’re lucky enough to live at the lake, you’re lucky enough. Dale Hollow Lake regulars Buford Coke and his brother Jeff are inclined to agree. Buford said they’ve been regulars at Dale Hollow Lake—particularly at Wolf River Resort and Marina area, for some 62 years now, with no sign of stopping. “We started coming in 1957,” he said. “My brother was six-months-old and I was four. We’ve been coming here all our lives.” The brothers are following in the footsteps of their
grandfather, who started coming to the area when the lake was first built. Today, Buford and his brother have neighboring homes at Wolf River. While that may not be unusual for die-hard lovers of Dale Hollow Lake, there are aspects of their setup that are quite unique. Buford’s home is technically in Tennessee, while Jeff’s is in Kentucky — yet they’re stone’s through away from each other. Another less common aspect is the fact that they live in mobile homes.
7
“It’s unique in that regard,” he said. “As far as I know, there’s no other setup like this on the lake.” In all, he said, Wolf River Resort is home to about 120 mobile homes at the marina. Primitive to full-hookup campsites are also available, as are cabins and a hotel, boat rentals, boat slips, and a marina. And any time one of the mobile homes goes up for sale, it’s in high demand. “I think people realize it’s an affordable way to have a nice place to stay and be comfortable here at the lake.” He said about a half-dozen residents stay there yearround, while the others, including himself, come and go. For the most part, everybody knows everybody, which lends itself to a real sense of community. “Our main home is in Louisville, KY,” he said. “We’ll come down here for a week or two, then go back to Kentucky for a few days.”
They never stay away for long, though, he said. “Wolf River and the lake are a huge part of our lives — and our sons and grandchildren.” And like most people who’ve made the lake a part of their lives, they spend a great deal of time on its waters. “We’re pontooners,” he said. “On the weekends, my nieces and their husbands will pop in — other family and friends — we hit the lake and sort of make a pontoon island with three or four pontoons.” They spend so much time there, that they keep clothes at the Wolf River home, too, meaning there’s less to carry back and forth. “Being here is so comfortable for us,” he said. “I guess we’re just spoiled. And we wouldn’t want it any other way.”

There’s way more to Dale Hollow Lake than fast boats and tan lines by Jesse David Walton
Paddle the Obey with East Port Marina
D
ale Hollow Lake, also known as the Obey River, is hands down one of the most pristine and beautiful lakes in our country. There is truly no better place to enjoy the peace and tranquility offered here then from an early morning kayak outing. I have spent countless hours out on the Dale over the years and have silently observed a secret world hidden to most of those who visit these waters. The East and West Fork of the Obey River join together at East Port Marina to form the beginning of the Dale. Some say that the waters flowing past East Port Marina are the best waters for fishing in the Spring. These waters are the first to warm up each year. The East Obey is known locally for the annual Spring Walleye and the White Bass spawn which is second to none. The Smallmouth Bass spawn heavily well up river on both forks as well, well above where your bass boat can reach. These waters are some of the most fished on the Dale, with every tournament angler trying to get as far up river and into as skinny of water as possible. Besides the bass hunters there are all the crappie, catfish, walleye and white bass fishermen you can think of hitting these
rivers daily. And they all catch fish, big fish. The Obey holds many secrets yet to uncover but there is no shortage of adventure or wildlife. It’s hard to be paddling the Obey and not daydream about the lives of the first people to live along these shores. People like Chief Nettle Carrier of the Cherokee, who sold some of his tribe’s land to a developer, who then sold to William Dale in 1812. Paddling past the high bluffs you can think of the Long Hunters like Obediah Terrill who travelled thru the Cumberland Gap in 1769 with about 20 others. It was for this hunter whom the Obey was named. Robert Crockett was among those Long Hunters and was killed in ambush near the Obey during a Cherokee attack. His brother, David Crockett, died a much more famous death at the Alamo. If your thirsty to wet your paddle in the Obey and drift thru deep green pools where the brave once hunted then find me at East Port Marina, I’ll take you there. It would be my pleasure to show you a place locked in time. The Obey is still wild and wonderful, can you here her calling your name? There’s way more to Dale Hollow Lake than fast boats and tan lines.

The “KiNG” of Fishing By Beth Underwood
F
ishing is often an activity passed down from one family member to another—it’s fairly commonplace for fathers and their kids, brothers and sisters, or entire generations of family to head to Dale Hollow Lake for a day of angling. So it was for J.B. King, whose father taught him to fish years ago. At that point, offering his services as a fishing guide wasn’t on his radar. But as his skills improved, passing the skill along to others became a viable pursuit. “I thought I may want to try it,” King said. “so I talked to Tommie Copeland, who owned Star Point Marina at the time and asked if she ever needed help.” As it turned out, she did. That was 28 years ago. In his first year as a fishing guide, he spent about 13 days on the water. From there, the service took on a life of its own. Today, King’s guided fishing service is still going strong, finding him on the water more than a hundred days out of the year. Unlike some guides who fish for a variety of species, King, who raises cattle and farms his land in Pickett County, has found a niche for himself as a small-and large-mouth bass fishing guide. Over the years, he’s attracted quite a following with customers from near and far — as far away as Washington State California, and New Mexico. “I’ve had some of the Cincinnati Reds boys and Music City people, and people from every walk of life.” Regardless of who’s in the boat with him, his favorite part of being a fishing guide is helping others catch fish. “I had a lady last year who got in the boat and said, ‘JB, I’ve never caught a bass’ and I said, ‘we’ll see what we can do about that,’” he said. “And the first spot we fished, she caught a bass.” One man and his son, now a young man at Texas A&M, started coming to fish with King when the son was about 10 or 11-years-old, King said, noting that they still fish with him to this day. Certainly there’s a lot to be said for the skills of the guide, but King also credits Dale Hollow Lake “If people want to catch fish, they need to come here,” he said. One of the benefits of fishing Dale Hollow, he said, is the ability to fish all year long, he said, adding that he offers both night and day fishing trips. If he has one word of advice for prospective fishers? “Book early,” he said. “By January, they’re already calling.” When you’re ready to do some bass fishing, give him a call at 931-864-3963, or email csking@twinlakes.net

The Beauty of Fishing
ABOUT THE COVER Overton Countian Bailey Talent is living proof that a girl really can have it all. On the water, Bailey was an inaugural member of the Livingston Academy Anglers team—and the first female angler on that team. Throughout her years as an LA Angler, she fished multiple times in the High School Fishing World Finals and National Championship tournaments. Off the water, Bailey was named Fairest of the Fair as a senior at Livingston Academy, and was also the 2019 recipient of the Hunter Northcutt Memorial Merit Scholarship, which is given to a Tennessee Bass Nation high school senior. Currently, the 18-year-old is a biochemistry major at Tennessee Tech. And of course, she still loves to fish.

ale Hollow Lake has long held a reputation as one of the nation’s most pristine bodies of water. Such a designation doesn’t happen by accident though. A lake needs a community of people who look out for its well-being, and Friends of Dale Hollow Lake was created to do just that. “We no doubt have the cleanest lake of its size in the United States,” said Friends of Dale Hollow Lake President Toni Johnson. “Our goal is to do our part to keep it that way.” As active participants in conserving and protecting the lake, the group helps with trail maintenance, eagle watches, and lakeshore cleanup. Their efforts support the Army Corps of Engineers in its stewardship of the lake. “Being a member is very rewarding,” Johnson said.
“Feeling the pride in helping to preserve the lake is immeasurable.” Membership currently stands at about 50 people, and is a great way to make new friends and strengthen community bonds. “We are very excited about the future,” Johnson said. “Moving forward, it’s vital that the next generation continue the work that Friends of Dale Hollow Lake have started,” Johnson said, “and we have no doubt that will happen. We’re very excited about the future.” Friends of Dale Hollow Lake is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and conserving the lake. Membership is open to all.

Schooling a New Generation of Anglers Pickett County Fishing Team is reeling in success By Beth Underwood
S
everal years ago, coaching a high school fishing team was the furthest thing from Tanner Rich’s mind. Like most people, high school angling wasn’t even on his radar. In fact, from where he stood, extracurricular options for high schoolers were limited to football, basketball, soccer and baseball. These days, all that is changing. High school angling is taking on a much more prominent role, and giving so-called traditional sports a run for their money. As the coach of the Pickett County High School Fishing Team, no one is more surprised, or excited, than Rich. “The interest in high school (fishing) teams has exploded, especially in the past two years,” he said, adding that he initially didn’t have plans to be a part of it all. “At first, I was afraid I wouldn’t have the time to devote to the team. I knew it was gonna be a big commitment.” That said, he did have the background for it. Rich, who played multiple sports in high school, also fished plenty of tournaments, both on his own and in college. Ultimately, it was his own experiences—and the community support he received when he was younger—that led him to the coaching position. “I realized it was time to give back,” he said. And one tournament was all it took to know he was in the right place. “That very first tournament when they held up a fish and they all had their jerseys on—there’s nothing like it,” he said. The students’ sense of pride and accomplishment was unmistakable, Rich said, and he recognized he had an opportunity to make a positive impact on a new generation. “Some of these kids have never picked up a fishing rod in their lives, and they’ve never played sports,” he said. “This gives them a chance to show something they can do. Being part of the team gives them an opportunity to shine in the spotlight.” In its inaugural season, Pickett County High School’s fishing team came on with a bang. Tyra Johnson, last year’s only female team member, earned a scholarship to Campbellsville, and the two-man team of Lucas Reagan and Tyler Cook qualified to compete against kids from across the country in the national tournament. “They came in thirtieth out of 300 teams,” Rich said. “Both of these boys are really good anglers. And, of course, that set the bar high, so we’re gonna try our best to take another team.” Reagan and Cook, who are both juniors this year, could well be among them. Now in its second year, the team has grown to eight members, and a junior team has been added as well. From the looks of things, this angling team is just getting started, which is fine with Coach Rich. “I think it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread.”

Make 2020 the Year When the boating season officially begins in 2020, boaters by the thousands will again make their way to Tennessee’s beautiful lakes, rivers, and reservoirs. Officer Dustin Buttram and other wildlife officers with the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) will be ready, day and night, rain or shine.
THE ROLE OF THE TWRA
The TWRA is the government agency in charge of patrolling the state’s waterways to check for safety and accident preparation. They are recognized by their uniform and when on the water, their green and orange striped patrol boats…and sometimes with blue, flashing lights. “Contrary to popular belief,” Buttram points out, “TWRA officers are not there to spoil the fun, they are working to see that boaters who are out on the lakes and rivers make it back home without incident.” Every TWRA officer has the authority to stop and board any vessel subject to the State Boating Act. They may issue citations or, when necessary, they may arrest, on sight, without warrant, any person they see violating any provisions of the Act. Boaters who are signaled to stop must do so immediately and maneuver in such a way that the officer may come along side or come aboard. “Mostly,” said Buttram, “stops provide teachable moments and can ultimately save a life.”
BUCKLE UP FOR SAFETY
Buttram is a strong believer that safety education is the key to avoiding a tragedy. According to Buttram, the single best action a boater can take to prevent a fatality while boating is simply to wear a life jacket when out on the water. An estimated 84 percent of people who drown in boating accidents were not wearing life jackets at the time. Lifejackets on a boat, in a compartment, do no good when an accident occurs. He said watercraft tend to present more hazards than landbased vehicles because water is more inherently dangerous and very few people who operate or ride in boats and personal watercraft are often not properly trained to operate them. In fact, research shows that some 77 percent of all boating accidents are caused by people with no boating education, with 5.5 fatalities occurring for every 100,000 people in the water. Add in alcohol to the mix and the results can be deadly.

for Safer Boating By Peggy Georgi
SAFETY EDUCATION SAVES LIVES
TWRA Officer Dustin Buttram encourages anyone who plans to boat this season to invest in a boater education course. The TWRA offers a variety of helpful resources and courses throughout the state, many free of charge. Buttram, pictured at the Caney Fork River, said swift currents and quickly moving waters below the dam make the rivers more dangerous.
“Like anyone driving a vehicle on the road, boating, and watercraft operators have a responsibility to operate their vehicles safely on the water,” said Buttram, who has seen his share of disastrous accidents that simply started out as just a fun day on the water. “During the busy boating season, our lakes and waterways are filled with swimmers, boaters, skiers, wakeboarders, tubers, divers, fisherman, and all types of watercraft including motorboats, houseboats, luxury vessels, personal watercraft, and commercial vessels day and night,” said Buttram, who currently serves TWRA’s District 31 which includes Center Hill, Cordell Hull, Great Falls, and Dale Hollow reservoirs and the Caney Fork River. Buttram has earned a respected reputation for his focus on safety education. Buttram and boating officers like him know of the dangers present in local waterways. He is usually the lead officer in accident investigation in his area and assists rescue squads and sheriff’s officers in the search for drowning victims on Center Hill and Dale Hollow Reservoirs. Named the Tennessee Boating Educator of the Year in 2019 by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA), Buttram has embraced the challenge of providing boating education opportunities to the public, teaching a record number of boating safety classes and certifying hundreds of students who are required to have boating education by law, plus numerous others not required by law to have the certification. Buttram, like other TWRA Officers, can often be found patrolling the water on enforcement boats, personal watercrafts, and kayaks to check for safety violations. To keep boaters safe, among the factors that officers look out for are individuals boating under the influence, young operators, and those operating their vessel recklessly. All of these can result in jail time, suspended license, and/or up to thousands of dollars in fines. “Our primary goal is education and safety,” Buttram noted. “We really don’t want to work an accident, fatality, or drowning. Any day that we don’t is a good day.”

CHECKLIST
FOR WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO CHECK THE WEATHER.
Storms can pop up fast. Be weather aware and know that heavy wind and rain can cause visibility issues and swamp boats.
INSPECT YOUR VESSEL prior to use every
time to make sure the boat is in working order and has what it needs to be legal to operate on the waterway. If it is motorized, ensure vessel has its registration and a first aid kit on board. Check fuel level, make sure battery is charged, and navigational lights work. Have a lifejacket on board for each passenger, Type IV (throwable) personal flotation device, paddle, and a working fire extinguisher. Fire extinguishers do not last forever. Check regularly to ensure the charge is operational.
KNOW THE NAVIGATION LAWS OF THE WATER. Study up before you get to
the water. You should know how and when to pass, when to give way, and how to approach a crossing situation. There are other rules related to your boat’s wake and where you can sit in a moving vessel. Riding on the front, side, or back (outside the gunners) will earn the driver a ticket for reckless driving.
TAKE A MAP (don’t rely on your cell phone for
directions or service when you are on the open water). Maps of waterways are usually free or available at a small charge at the local marinas. They can also be
downloaded at the TWRA and Army Corp of Engineers websites. Water levels change. When the lakes and rivers are low, there are exposed gravel bars. Maps will provide this detail.
HAVE A FLOAT PLAN.
Let someone know where you are headed and when you will be back.
KNOW WHERE YOU LAUNCHED YOUR BOAT, SO YOU KNOW WHERE TO RETURN. At the very least,
know the name of the marina, city, or town where you launched. New boaters should practice launching before attempting at a busy ramp for the first time.
TAKE PLENTY OF WATER/HYDRATING BEVERAGES.
A sunny day on the water can easily lead to dehydration-related illnesses.
DESIGNATE A SOBER DRIVER.
A sober driver is a must have on the water. Alcohol contributes to many accidents. A blood alcohol concentration of .08 means you are legally impaired and will result in a ride to the local jail.

DID YOU KNOW? Any Tennessee resident
born after January 1, 1989 must show the TWRA-issued wallet Boating Safety Education Certificate as proof of successful completion of the TWRA Boating Safety exam. TWRA will accept any NASBLA approved boating safety certificate from out of state boaters born after January 1, 1989. No other certificate will be accepted as meeting the requirements of the law.
Jackson County High School students Mason Wade, Micah Scoggins, and Blake Harris successfully completed the TWRA Boating Safety exam to earn their TWRA-issued wallet size Boating Safety Education Certificate required to legally operate a motorized boat in Tennessee.

when the lake was W
By Darren Shell
e all know that our wonderful lake has been the same size since its humble beginnings back in 1942/43. But I think if we all think back a little, we’ll agree that in many ways, this lake is smaller than it used to be. Let’s look at some of our early days. I’ve not boated on this lake as long as many of the lake-lovers of the Dale, but I’ve spent 38 seasons here, and I’ve seen how things have changed over the years. Even before my time here, so much has come and gone. Why, when D. L. Hayes caught his world record smallmouth bass here in 1955, it took him nearly an hour just to get to his fishing hole up in the mouth of Wolf River from his boat slip at Cedar Hill.
The horsepower in his then-huge boat just doesn’t carry water to the new 250 horsepower bass boats that race from one end of the lake to the other in minutes. It sure seemed like a big lake then. In fact, most boats were tiny wooden runabouts, sometimes even without engines. Most marinas were fishing camps—not lavish resorts with all the wonderful amenities. Believe me, those old wooden row boats were no speed machine!
Willow Grove, 1940’s
John Gorman and Dock Owner, Lloyd Harrison 1969 Mr. John Gorman and his wife, Bea, could just barely ski their kids with their little 75 horsepower Mercury. Their short trip up the river to catch their number two world record smallmouth in 1969 was still a long way in that little boat. I suppose it was worth the long drive way up river. I bet they’d be amazed with how far out the docks now spread into the river—now that the lake has shrunk around it.
Dale Hollow Marina, 1950’s

bigger Wisdom Dock, 1950’s
Horse Creek 1950’s

D. L. Hayes and his record Smalley 1955
Dick Roberts of Cedar Hill Fishing Camp, 1950’s (note the old wooden rental boats) These days, that old fish of David’s would have been on the legal scales in just minutes. It’s just a smaller lake, that’s all. Willow Grove 1948 I traveled the whole lake this year, dock by dock, cove by marina cove, and you know what … it’s been contagious. I can tell. The lake is shrinking—no doubt! East Port barely fits on the point any more! Star Point—the bluffs are closing in! Sulfur Creek Hollow just isn’t as long as I remember as a kid. Dale Hollow Dock barely fits! And State Dock!!!!! Ya need a shoe-horn to squeeze in there! What are we gonna do? You know I’m joking. I love the new amenities of this lake like everyone else. I love the food at that wonderful restaurant at Sunset. I like the new fuel dock at Mitchell Creek. I like my boat nestled comfortably in a clean new boat slip, even if those slips stretch way out into the lake. It’s just progress, that’s all. But, I’m still the Gravedigger. I still love
the old stuff too. I still buy antiquated fishing lures up at Gunnel’s Camp. I still love the catfish, beans, and onions at Cedar Hill almost as much as Mom’s! I still buy ice cream over at Hendricks Creek. I even still visit Jay up at Sulphur Creek—he’s always there— kinda like the rest of us old dock hands. I think the lake is shrinking around us too! So, my advice about this whole lake-shrinking thing… I’d get out there and love the lake like you’ve always done. Take pictures (send me some!). Enjoy what this wonderful place has to offer. ‘Cause you know what? It ain’t gettin’ no bigger, but it isn’t really getting any smaller. It just has more to offer. And that’s the long and the short of it. ~ DS
