I fished out of a kayak the day I was there. Saw everything from that to a johnboat being paddled with a kayak paddle, to small bass boats with trolling motors, and the little plastic two-man boats...
Fished primarily Eddy Creek this past Tuesday and Wednesday for bass (both beautiful sunny days). Lake seemed to be 4-5 ft below pool to me. Lots of overly shallow areas - but as Dave Stewart...
Agreed. Great looking lake but heavily pressured. Went this past Wednesday and did poorly. Most boats we talked to said the same. Crappie were out in the middle that day. I think it's days as a good...
I, too, used to buy these baits down at the Cabin. I think Dave Stewart used to recommend them, too - which is how I found them. Love his spinnerbaits and plastic brush hog baits. Last couple of...
Great looking kayak. I have a Moken 10 Lite I picked up last spring. They make great fishing yaks. You won't win any races in it, but its very stable and easy to maneuver.
Hey guys.....new fishing kayak owner here, and I'm doing research on nearby rivers, creeks, and streams suitable for paddling/fishing. I have a great book that describes a number of fishing accesses...
Anyone been on Barren in the last day or so? I know it's about 11-12' over summer pool, and today's deluge cannot help there. Planning on hitting the Beaver Creek area tomorrow (Sat 5/11), and was...
Great - thanks for the ramp feedback....and now for Castin's question...how are they biting?
Heading to Beaver Creek on Barren this Saturday - is the ramp open/okay to launch from? It's fairly tight to begin with.
Thanks for the help.
Anyone know a good place to get some trailer work done near Louisville? Have a bent guide rail and tail light step i need re-formed.
Thanks
I do have a GPS - has FHS 4.0 on it, too. I use it religiously. That would be terrific if you're able to.
Well, I'd go to Kentucky or Barkley, too, but it's three+ hours away (I'm in Crestwood - Louisville area)...that's a big drive for a day-trip. And since I'm bound there for four days the following...
Probably not this weekend....too many chores stacked up. I would like to think next Saturday, but that's the weekend of the Fourth, and I don't love hitting the lakes on long weekends when things...
Hey Gillman,
Thanks for the report. Was all of that up in Beaver Creek? When we went last Saturday, I saw a large number of the gar milling around, swirling the surface. Funny that you caught...
Well, got on the water around 6-6:15. As a result of poor planning, neither of us had $3...bigger bills only. So we left a note that we would come back after a visit to a marina and went off to...
Gillman,
Thanks for that feedback. And I totally understand your thoughts about the other spots relayed to you by another - makes perfect sense. I'm appreciative for the input and suggestions. ...
Thanks to all of you for the input. I'll have a look at my buzz baits for first thing in the a.m., and maybe even my jigs. I'm mostly a plastics and crankbait fisherman, so this was great input....
Planning on heading to Barren this weekend, and probably going to target Beaver Creek and Skaggs Creek for LM. But I've never been to Barren before. Any of you guys have any pointers for that area?...
So this makes me begin to think.....about what's the right thing. Because I've seen and/or witnessed similar things, and don't know what is 'right.' I remember once seeing a couple of life jackets...
And now, seat or not seat, I'm sitting down and laughing at all of your stories! I guess all things considered, I'm a lucky guy. Really, I've had minimal ongoing investment troubles. So I suppose...
Skeeter185,
Thanks very much. That's very, very kind. I have a backup...it is just a little dirty and rough, but functions fine. It just frustrates me that two different guys 15 miles away tell...
I'm so worried....and I'm also as dumb as a bag of hammers. Left my rear deck seat lying on the back casting deck as I pulled away from Hatmakers on Taylorsville Road on Saturday. Shockingly, it...
Anyone know much about the lot sales going on at an area near Murray called The Pointe at Western Shores? I'm not familiar with that part of Kentucky Lake, and was curious as to the exact location,...
LAST EDITED ON Jun-05-06 AT 04:26PM (EST)[p]Danny,
You're in luck with the phones....still none in the rooms. I like that, too. Everything else is upgraded. There's satellite TV (for those...
Hope I'm not violating any rules of the board here, but wanted to share a recent discovery for places to stay down in the north end of Barkley/Kentucky Lake if you're looking for accomodations.
On...
I think Danny's response is on the right track. Your GPS is likely not reading "track up." It's probably reading "north up." So while you may be heading south, the GPS is oriented on the screen...
Was at Rough this past Saturday. Long, slow day, but did finish nicely with about three keepers throwing cranks against the rock bluffs near the dam.
Gee, Dave, do you think those folks with the nasty emails had thought you had befriended Dionne Warwick or Madame Cleo? What are you supposed to be, clairvoyant?
Forget about those guys, and...
Any sort of bite going on there on Sunday? Hopefully the water will warm a bit over the next few days.
Planning on heading to Rough this weekend. Can anyone tell me the water conditions, temp, coloring, etc. Anyone getting any bites (LM) there. Or maybe hybrids near the dam?
Appreciate any...
Eric,
Have been to the lodge, and brought my boat. You can park it in the parking lot (although parts are tough to navigate with a "looping ramp up and down from the main entry). Your spousal...
Heading to Barkley the weekend of 11/19. Can anyone comment on how Barkley has been trending, and where the bite seems strongest? Thanks for any help.
Check with Greg at Boatworks in Taylorsville. He let me put my boat on his lot while I was waiting on my new boat to come in. I sold it for my price, and not for a trade-in price, and Greg helped...
