Nestled in the Cumberland Mountains of middle
Tennessee, Center Hill Lake extends 64 miles upstream and covers an area of 18,220 square acres, Center Hill Lake has a
storage capacity of 762,000 acre feet of water. The lake has approximately 415
miles of shoreline, with a maximum depth of 190 feet. The water shed area for
the lake is 2,174 square miles. Visibility in the lake ranges from 3.5 feet to 6
feet in the summer months.
The TWRA and local anglers have placed many
fish attractors and brush piles throughout the lake, which adds to making Center
Hill Lake an excellent lake for fishing. Abundant in the lake are smallmouth
bass, largemouth bass, striped bass (white bass), catfish, bluegill, and
walleye. The lake also offers brown trout, rainbow trout, paddlefish, spotted
bass, and three types of crappie. The Tennessee state record spotted bass was
caught here in 1989 weighing 5 lbs. 8 oz.The major
tributaries flowing into Center Hill Lake are the Caney Fork River, Collins
River, Rocky River, and the Falling Water.
There are three state parks on
Center Hill Lake, and nine recreation areas ran by the Army Corps of Engineers
