New Lake is a reservoir in Tennessee, near Haywood County.
Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.
New Lake is one of the named reservoir waters in Haywood County, so I would begin around one short area near the launch and avoid a long move until I get a useful answer from the nearby water. I would rather understand one section well than skim five, so I would stay around one nearby piece of water until I get a clear read from the first setup.
Published physical measurements are limited for New Lake, so I would avoid borrowing numbers from another lake until a verified bathymetric map supports the measurement and fish one manageable piece of water until I find a repeatable bite in the first setup.
Exact-water fish information is limited for New Lake, so I would bring a light spinning setup with a soft plastic and live-bait option to one easy-to-read piece of water and keep the plan broad until I get a useful answer from the first setup. A simple setup around one promising section of bank on New Lake is easier to read, so I would keep fishing it until I see enough in the first area.
On New Lake, I would begin around one straightforward section of bank with one clear target and make the simplest change first only after I learn something from the first area. The moment I see a pattern develop in the first few casts, I would stay with one sheltered shoreline stretch on New Lake before making the next move. When I get a useful clue from the first few casts, I would treat one short shoreline stretch as the first useful reference point for my next visit to New Lake.
