Will do, thanks for the tip. Do you know the closest ramp down there?
I caught my first hybrid at Herrington and I really love the fight of them and white bass. Problem is I find them one weekend, then never again until following spring. Any tips on finding either...
is bryants or gwins $6-7 per kayak or vehicle? I always go to Coffey Cove since its $5 per vehicle, so my wife and I both launch our kayaks for $5. One thing my wife doesn't like is no restroom
nothing wrong with that! which dam? I was thinking of heading to boonesboro myself.
I can't imagine the pandemic has hurt them at all, only boosted them. Fishing, hiking, biking, kayaking, boating, literally any outdoor activity is through the roof right now because people can't do...
Looking to get into some white bass this spring. Randomly I found some at Herrington in April (never again though) and some randomly in May in the salt river (went back a week later and no dice). ...
i fished this for about 3 hrs yesterday, a couple things I ran into:
1/4oz jig head is HUGE for a minnow. it looked ridiculous on it, so I added a 2.5in twist tail, and tipped the hook with the...
look at that! I feel like I might actually have a chance to catch my first saugeye or walleye. Its been on my bucket list for years now. thanks for the help!
awesome! thanks!
I see lots of talk on here about the Ohio, what about the KY? is it clean?
this is the best info I can find (besides F&W Health advisories):
https://watermaps.ky.gov/WaterHealthPortal/
good deal, thanks for the tip! Any place in that area that has minnows? Only place I know is Rocky Top Shell Station, that's about 25 mins from the lock though. edit: locks like B&B in...
Thanks. I was looking for info on bank fishing. I have been under FT. Boonsboro, but I do not get super close. That is not a true lowhead dam though, but it still has pulled me in before.
thanks for the info. I have been to lock 7 and Ft Boonesboro. Lock 7 had decent access, but at FT boonesboro I couldn't cast far enough from the beach to reach to churning water. Any other...
Its my understanding the tailwaters can still be productive during the winter. Looking for places by Lexington where I can bank fish, I'd rather not take my kayak out. The ones that I know are...
good to know, thanks. what were you fishing for, and were they biting? I have been fishing taylorsville lately because the bite is good, but my summer lake is herrington.
I will be up Cliftly creek right at the boat ramp this weekend. I would love to get a striper, I am on my pedal kayak. Never caught one, never targeted one. if I go to either jamestown marina or...
gotcha. I tried LM bass earlier this year using the same cooking method (out of Nolin), and thought the fish was a great texture, just a little bland on the flavor. thats why I have been hunting...
Yesterday I caught, cleaned and ate my first crappie and I was less than impressed. I thought this was supposed to be some of the best eating fresh water fish there is. I caught it, threw it in the...
does the flow ever change in the falls area?20232
I agree, KY Fish and Wildlife are great. I email the fisheries biologists and they are always helpful.
Were they stocking Hickman Creek behind Veterans Park with trout?
great info, thanks!
I posted up on FB asking about crappie fishing tips. I was told, Taylorsville, Wilgreen and Cedar Creek are all good local spots to go after them. One tip I got was to use a Bandit 300 and troll my...
i have a site right on the lake that i will be staying at next weekend. i will have my kayak with me. Any ideas on what to fish for in that area?
Just an Update:
Haven't gotten on a fish yet but haven't given up. I had my best luck on Saturday. We have been going to Cave Run pretty consistently on the weekends and the area below the ****...
good to know, fish on!
Nice! Any reason why you target redear over all other panfish? And on that note, how do you only target redear, or do you just throw all the other panfish back?
i am pretty sure the WATER is public, the LAND is private. you can float any waterway you want, i do not believe you can walk any waterway you want. i wouldn't think it would be an issue though.
good deal, thanks. i may try the chowning ramp next. i launched off river rd from kayak and floated down to the 248 bridge with no luck. i tried going upstream (where i found some last week), but...
Last week I dropped my kayak in off the bridge on HWY 53 and floated down quite a ways. I had good luck catching white bass all the way to the takeout point which was fairly far down river rd. Do...

went out to the lake yesterday fully expecting to go below the dam, but once i got there that access was closed off due to them churning out water (3500CFS). By that time i had forgotten...
any idea on why they are locked and if they will open? Is the other side open to the public?
i'd hate to come back and my truck was towed away.
Anyone ever fished it? I just found it on KDFW access points for salt river. I have a kayak, mostly targeting bass
...
no luck with the sabiki. i tried a size 4 and found some small bait balls, none of the huge ones i was seeing before. i'll try again though.
Awesome, thanks guys!
I caught my first ever Muskie down on the "Musky Mile" section of the French Broad River in NC. Technically I believe it was before the actual "mile", but that's besides the fact. That was the...
i got a couple sabiki rigs to try out at herrington tomorrow. i am just going to see if i can actually catch something, then i will look into some way to keep the bait alive on my kayak. i'll...
perfect, thanks
one time in FL we could place a sibiki rig over the side of the boat and EVERY SINGLE HOOK had a fish on it. We could have filled the boat up with bait fish. Never worked again. ever, lol.
i'll...
I am always finding bait balls at lake Herrington and I am wondering if there is a way to catch some from my kayak. Is a cast net the only way to achieve this?
FWIW i went to Reba on thursday 2nd. traffic was busy, but not terrible. i went way way to the back of the lake and caught a couple with an offset spinner. no biggins, 12-14in or so
I am curious what the traffic is like on these lakes due to the shutdown. If they are anything like the local parks or trails I assume they would be PACKED.
for someone like me on a kayak, how far up pickman are we talking? 1-2mi, 5-7mi?
This guy is asking all the right questions here.
you should only use the rope technique if you plan to KEEP the fish. otherwise you're just giving the fish a slow death
I have caught them on in-line spiners before
I love me some elkhorn. Did you go above the dam or below?
I’m always fascinated how many different species of fish, and how often I catch fish using just shrimp in saltwater. I want to try live bait for freshwater but don’t know where to start. Besides...
Anyone want to give me some winter tips? Fishing in central KY and been hitting the lakes that i could tear them up at over the summer. Can't get a bite to save my life. Been trying in-line spinners,...
care to recommend a good beginner DVD from him?
I am going to try to get on the water more this winter and it seems like Crappie are one of those fish that bite most when the water temperature drops. I have only gone out to target Crappie once...
Once you see some structure/bait ball on your FF drop a buoy. Turn 180 deg and do the same thing at the same speed. Hit that at another 90 deg increment, then 180 from that one. You should have 4...
