check the tva.gov water levels for wolf creek. if its in the low 540's part of the day then it is a normal generation schedule. today its 563 all day so 23 feet higher and spilling fast and deep.
Fished yesterday and today. Water temp mid lake was 48 or 49 degrees. Water is clear and as low as I have seen It In a while. Small mouth are biting.
Darn those guys! Putting their boats in a public lake and driving around like everybody else has the right too! What are they thinking exercising their American freedom?
I do not know if them fish are really dead. They may just be passed out from drinking and dancing all night. I know back in the day after an all nighter of drinking and dancing I looked like a dead...
You need to bass fish at night on greenbo this time of year. Plastic worms.
somewhere between the dam and cumberland falls. but some may be in the river below the dam and some may have jumped the falls.
water 67 and clear this morning. fish are biting.
you have to clearly understand what the generation schedule means and what the river levels mean in terms of safe boat travel. those big boats you saw below the dam were probably running when they...
just take it easy as there are some places that are only 2 feet deep you have to cross over so a great big boat aint gonna work, most guys use a flat bottom type boat. i use a 16 foot grizzly with a...
you can operate a boat above and below burkesville. you just have to know where the gravel bars are and watch for logs, lots of logs in the river. i would contact the folks at traces on the...
fished today, i am 5'10" and when i stand on the deck of my ranger the dock is at my belt so i had to climb up on it after i tied up to it and dropped my talon. taking a long time to fill back up. ...
Maybe you are not a good bass fisherman, dave is a professional. I follow his reports and use his advice and do very well by it.
use your electronics to find the bait fish, the bass will not be far.
I fished on erie a few years ago out of middle bass island and had similar results on a three day trip most of ours were 2 to 3 and a half pounds though, still a ton of fun and the only smallmouth...
if you are going on that river in a kayak you better pay close attention to the generation schedule. when they start generating you will not be able to paddle upstream and will have to have someone...
around these parts if we run into someone blocking a public road we either tear down the gate or make a new road around it.
I don't think color matters but I have noticed that Bass are more attracted to my boat hull prior to a cold front and do not like my boat hull right after the front goes through. Go figure.
Lake Cumberland, Dale Hollow, Cumberland River from Wolf Creek Dam to TN line, Kentucky Lake, Lake Barkley, Green River Lake, Elk Horn Creek, Laurel River Lake, Kentucky River, Cedar Creek Lake,...
not legal to sell, but I would love to rent some from you. I would return every one of them that did not escape during our boating adventure.
I fish the river a lot and would never put a nice glass bass boat in there. I have a 21 foot ranger and use my 16 foot grizzly aluminum when I fish the river. lots of shoals, logs and rocks, you...
I just spent three days on dale and caught a ton of 3 to 4 1/2 pound smallies. I like the slot and the fact that it keeps the big tourneys off the lake. we had the lake to ourselves for three days...
what part of the Cumberland river are you wanting help with.
smallmouth bite when they want, dont have nuthin to do with snow.
will not be signing the petition then and would urge everyone else not to sign it.
wait till the water is 55 and stable in the next ten days or so and the black crappie should be moving shallow. the lake is going to get 6 feet of water sucked out as soon as tva can get it out. ...
no but thomas taxidermy in bagdad kentucky is worth the drive.
thanks tim, i participated in it. it was a lengthy online survey. it was in the last two years. may have to send in a freedom of information request and force them to release it. would hope one...
attitudes like yours do a lot of damage too. only not to cars but to conservation. the joke is that ky has the best elk hunting in north america now and it will only get better unless you are in...
they did an online survey on season lengths for archery muzzleloader and gun with questions on big buck management. the survey was on the department website for a few months and had many...
They did one a little over a year ago and have refused to release the results of a several month survey. why do they want us to participate in this one. what are they hiding.:mad:
dude, i live down here on barkley and fish both lakes combined about 100 days per year. the fishing pressure is incredible. the only time i the pressure is off is in december january and february. ...
tournaments have really made fishing miserable on kentucky and barkley some days. it so crowded sometimes i have to get to the 8th or ninth spot before i find an opening to fish where i want. only...
we slayed the bass on green meemee's on kentucky and barkley last year and should do the same this year. we were careful not to let the other fisherman see them for fear of devastation of the...
they were keepers before i filleted them, then they were under 15 inches after i fried them. sorry for the misunderstanding. :)
i was there, bunch of us went for couple days and had fun. met forrest wood and talked to him for a while he is a nice guy.
none of the ones i ate will make it. some that were released died. others were ate by some other critter. hard to say, maybe half made it to this year and are now 17 or 18 inch fish.
the knot wars segment on that show is a bunch of balogna. the knots hardly ever fail, the breaks are almost always in the line and they declare some knot the winner when neither knot failed. i...
get a coyote estrus call and some coyote estrus scent.:eek:
april is good. fish are in prespawn and you can usually get on a pattern in the creeks. start shallow and move our to the points and creek channels till you find fish. watch the channel markers as...
had the same problem 20 years ago. if it is a hairline crack you can use jb if it has any separation issues you need to have it welded and grinded. hard to say. take it to a good shop and have...
i just bought two drop shot carrot stix for 69 bucks a piece on sale. will use them fishin for smallies this winter and let you know if they stink. figured they were cheap enough in the sale to give...
which ones do you use and are they made well and can stand up to the rocks in small mouth country. specifically looking for your experience with paint and tie jobs on the jigs.
call the manufacturer and ask. may be a normal situation. they will advise
42lb 15oz. across the south and ky. florida guys gotta be in the 50's or 60's though.
trilene big game. it goes down to 8lb now. if i had to choose only one. thoughest mono on the planet. i have broken 5/0 worm hooks with 15 pound big game. pretty stiff in the winter though.
Jig, half ounce. Green and brown. if i had to choose. or a shad colored hand grenade.
hard to say, the people that make cajun fishing line say red disapears underwater but the folks that put it on hooks etc say fish think its prey is bleeding. i do well on red craw patterns in the...
dont hurt a thing to try it, no way to know. a jigging spoon may work a little better but you need to hit it and see.
