Old Hickory Lake has hosted several major national and regional championship bass tournaments over the past few years...including Wal-Mart FLW, Everstart, Bassmaster Megabucks, BASS Tennessee Eastern Invitational, Super Bass Classic National Championship and Bass Pro Shops Crappiemasters National Championship.
You can bring your own boat and use one of the many public boat ramps in the area.......or rent a canoe or pontoon boat. Or you might want to rent jet-skis. It's a great way to explore the secluded coves of the lake, have a fun day on the water.....and perhaps stop to have a picnic. I always enjoy watching the sailboats.
There are several day use fee areas located at Cedar Creek, Laguardo and Old Hickory Beach. Each area offers swimming, sandy beaches, restrooms, picnic tables, grills and launching ramps. Many areas offer sand volleyball and fishing platforms. You can reserve a shelter for a family event and some areas even have kitchen facilities.
