Been on this lake plenty. Always friendly boating traffic, and minimal tafficc at times. There are of course, a lot of boats in Hendersonville, and sometimes, Old Hickory Lake can get pretty crowded. There are many spots to put in, as they say in Hendersonville, and Gallatin, Tennessee. Lot's of great fishing spots on the lake, and a marina in Hendersonville.
