Sequatchie River

The Sequatchie River has its beginnings near Crossville, TN on the Cumberland Plateau. Starting from an underground spring, the river flows southwest for 125 miles to Jasper, TN.  Anglers will find the river an excellent place to catch bass, trout, bluegill, crappie and even catfish.

The mouth of the Sequatchie spills into the Tennessee River one mile downstream of Nickajack Dam. The river is accessible by small craft or paddle craft for several miles upstream to an old mill dam.

Canoes and kayaks can launch further upstream at Ketner’s Mill and float down. Watch for blowdowns and fluctuating current and river levels, due to water releases from Nickajack Dam on the Tennessee River.
