great smoky mountains: Douglas Lake
- 07/30/09 06:57 AM

Crappie and Bluegill fishing are spring rites in East Tennessee and Douglas Lake is one of the premier sites. Douglas is formed by the French Broad River which enters via North Carolina.

Signal Point was a key position in the war between the states as Knoxville can be seen from from this vista.
