To further this, I must say “bye” to my old Deep V Tracker. She gave up on me this late summer. She was with me since 1990. Over the years, I seen to it that she stayed afloat with minor surgery here...
I’ve had good luck below the dam in Frankfort. That is if the river levels stay fishable
Got a few days to be on Dale. Went out this morning out of Sulphur Creek. Water temp for the day started out at 64 and fluctuated between 64-66 in Sulphur and out on main lake. We caught a few dinks...
TVA has a lake level app. Click on Wolf Creek to get your levels. 20236
Gave up bass fishing. Started perch jerking today back in the bays in 10-20 foot of water using night crawlers and catching decent sized redear and bluegill. Got enough to stink up the skillet...
Another day without anything good. Water temp about the same. Hope someone else had some luck.
I hope everyone had a better day than we did. Caught some smallmouth dinks out by accordion bluff on shiners. Back up in Sulphur creek more dinks, smallmouth and largemouths on a shad colored ribbed...
Thx for the offer TimE. We think we got it figured out. We fixed the fuel hose connection to the motor. It’s a 4 stroke mercury. We’ll find out shortly. We got a backup, a pontoon. Usually we bring...
Water temp in Sulphur creek is 72 degrees. Didn’t get to fish. Motor issues. Will update tomorrow
I hope it’s lower than 78. I’m sure it will be. We plan to use shad. It’s going to be a lot more comfortable this year than last. Luck to you. We’re staying at the houseboat in sulphuric creek.
TimE, I don’t recall chastising anyone on this board. If I have misworded a response directed to you or anyone else that could be taken as smarta** , I sincerely apologize. I recall TimE you giving...
I reckon this site is not used as much as it was. I know there are members that are on Dale. The last report I can get from TWRA is 78 degrees on September 23rd. I’m heading down today. I’ve tried in...
Can someone divulge the temperature of Dale Lake please. The Corp last communication on the subject was 78 degrees.
Cades Cove will not be accessible till March 1st. Laurel Creek road will be closed due the Bote Mountain Tunnel being repaired. You can go back towards Tremont and fish the prongs there. Don’t forget...
Thank you for sharing.
To me, there were so many spots in Blood. The best one for me though was where Blood River channel turned right and headed towards the main lake. It gets relatively close to the north bank and has...
Check with Hendricks marina. We also use to drive into Celina,Tn and buy from Clark Buford Bait co.
I am suppose to head down Sunday the 10th however with the forecast for a couple of those days having the highs around freezing and the nights really cold, I don’t know if this old man can handle it....
I’ll be heading back down on November 10th for a few days. Hopefully the weather will cooperate. Give us a report after you trip please. Again, luck and above all, be careful.
When we were down there last week, the 13th -16th, the temperature Ranged from 72-75. The COE said yesterday the temperature was at 72. We were catching smallmouths in 25-30 foot of water around...
Thank you Cousin Wilbur. COE still has it at 81 degrees as of the 10th.
Anybody know water temp up around the state dock on Dale Hollow? I know the COE is saying 81 degrees at dam. Going next week. Hoping it’ll cool down alittle by then.
Just relaying my experience below dam #4 yesterday. I got so tired of catching catfish around the rocks right at the bottom of dam. The biggest 16 inches with the majority of them being 12” and...
Have you considered Elmer Davis? I haven’t fished it for a long time however I think I read an article somewhere that stated the bass fishing should be pretty decent. With all this rain this week...
Go to explorekentuckylake.com and check lake conditions
From what amenities that you are looking for in a lake in northern Ky, I can’t think of any that would be of any size that would help. Elmer Davis in Owen county has camping area I believe and maybe...
Update on that trip to Hatchery Creek, Monday February 4th. We limited out and I caught my personal best rainbow. It took us longer to get there because they were deep cleaning the troughs in the...
I buy the Walmart batteries too. I keep my batteries on a battery tender year round when I’m not in my boat. With that said, I usually replace my Walmart batteries by year 4 because I start noticing...
Thx stripernut. I’m heading down there with my brother and friend in a couple hours. Whether we catch anything or not, I’m sure we’ll have a good time. I haven’t had a fishing pole in my hand for at...
If you should come up with the time, a good memorable place to take him would be Hatchery Creek below Wolf Creek dam. As far as Louisville, I have no idea. Lots of luck
I’m looking for recommendations for a crappie/bluegill guide on Cumberland and Dale Hollow. My brother is needing a guide that has experience with customers that are handicapped. In my brothers case,...
Thanks Rick. Great report!
Much better day! Surface temperature started out at 61 degrees and never got above 62. Water clarity pretty good and real good in areas. Wind was calm and sunny. Much more comfortable than yesterday....
Brrrrrrr! Raw day! Surface temp at Sulphur Creek 63 degrees. Did not find any warmer where we went. Fished around state park area and up around accordion bluff area. We were using shiners and caught...
Sorry about your boat Geo. Glad your safe and back on shore to be able to worry about the damage. Hope you find someone.
10-22-18 The surface temperature started out at 60 degrees at the marina, thru out the day it gradually got up to 66 degrees. The water was murky. I managed a few largemouth dinks fishing in 15-20...
Thanks Roadrunner. I always check the reports on Explore Kentucky. Good site btw. Looks like I’m going to have wind Saturday. I’ll be fishing by myself so I’ll get to try different techniques and get...
Heading to Ky lake Friday for 4-5 days. Lake temp is reported to be at 68 and about a foot and a half over winter pool. Be fishing Blood River. Anybody heard any reports? I’d say they ought to start...
That was a two day total. I’m not a tournament fisherman and I’m assuming that you had to buy in for the big fish competition. I took that from the table I seen. I get what you mean about the math.
Thoughts and prayers to your wife Bassky and to your friend Roadrunner
I’m assuming it is
I’ve heard that the surface temp was 76 degrees over the weekend. If my figures and information are correct for the Dale Hollow Fall Classic, it ended like this.
Total poundage caught
509.95 lbs...
Anyone know what the main lake surface temp is? Any word on what the classic has been doing?
I sent you a private message Zimmy. It was turning out to be a book I was writing and I didn’t want to bore everyone. This way, you’ll be the only one😜
It was brutal DHart! With a capital B! We were up Wolf river to Holly creek and back to base in Sulphur creek. Water temp got 81 degrees. We used live bait and threw jigs. Jigs did better but all we...
Water warmed up to 80 degrees this afternoon. Sun cooked us pretty good. Live bait didn’t really work for us this afternoon. Jigs worked better. 19 & 20” largemouth was biggest this afternoon on...
Surface temp 78.4 main lake. Water clarity, no problems so far. Caught several on jigs on main lake points 30-35 foot of water. Biggest so far 18.5. Live bait this afternoon.
Thanks Rick. Be going down late next week. I’ll pass along what I find when I get down there to others who might be curious as well.
I assume that Dale is on a slow rise and murky in some areas, especially Sulphur Creek. Anybody know what the temp is?
You might want to start looking in the Kentucky forums to get more info. There should be all kinds of info from last year. It’s been kinda quite here lately on Ky forums. I’m heading down next week...
