Post by **WB Staff** » Fri Dec 17, 2021 3:10 am

Gov. Bill Lee and fishing icon Bill Dance today announced a new initiative to improve and enhance Tennessee lakes, increase visitation and honor Dance’s legacy with the creation of Bill Dance Signature Lakes. TWRA and the State of Tennessee will invest $15 million in improvements both above and below the water at 18 lakes which bear fishing legend Dance’s stamp of approval. Tennesseans will benefit from increased stocking, habitat and fisheries management, as well as improved access for fishing and boating. The collaborative effort between Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, Tennessee State Parks and Tennessee Department of Tourist Development seeks to solidify Tennessee as the heart of fishing in the southeast and drive economic activity across the state.

California could care less about recreation of lakes. They are a water supply tool and if up to them fishing wouldn’t be allowed on most of the waterways. Just coming back from Tennessee every stick of water is fishable and is very welcoming to do so. All this rain and some of the reservoirs are still losing ground in regards to lake levels.
