Went to the falls of the ohio this Dawn. Didnt have 1 bite from a white/hybrid/striper. Water was 18 feet and moving swiftly still. I think it would be great in a boat but the current was too ruff...
Trying to decide where to go tomorrow. I am thinking either Mcneely or that eagle lake pay lake. Anyone been to either this year? Just looking to catch some eater catfish and panfish. Or is there...
Thanks. I figured it was some kind of shiner. Just wasn't sure. Are they good catfish bait?
Caught a few of these today on a fly rod. What is it though?

Thinking of trying one of these lakes tailwaters this weekend and was wondering if they are fishable right now, from the bank. Going to bring a flyrod i got for xmas, and some of my other gear, so...
Wil be headed down to pineville/harlan area for an elk hunt this coming up week. Would like to do some fishing during mid afternoons. Does anyone know if the fishing is good on the cumberland river...
Got to tailwaters a little past sunrise. Took my bowfishing rig with me and right off the bat i shot and missed at a drum right up next to bank. Got reset and saw a bighead out towards the middle...
Any reports on cats or anything? Will be hitting the tailwaters before sunrise to try to shoot some carp. And would like to take some catfish also. Bringing frozen shad, nightcrawlers, and some deer...
River is way down. From 11am till 2pm didnt catch anything. Had a few drum hooked but they came off. Could see the bottom of the river many yards out. And walked across quite a bit of it. Shad was...
Went this morning and whites and stripers were in the jumps. Got there at 8 and they were jumping till i left at 1030. Caught 1 decent white and 6 small stripers. By small i mean fry. My 1/4 ouce...
Every white and hybrid i have eaten has been delicious. Dont even worry about red meat. Deep fried is the only wayive eaten it, but the meat is probably goodanyway u cook it.
What i do is carolina rig my bait with a 5oz sinker and alway cast downstream. I think casting downstream has saved me more rigs than anything. I havnt caught to many of dead bait and tend to stick...
Nevermind just found this...

about halfway down answers it.
I dont know the answer but I did not think anyone owned any water. And therefore you could fish as much as u want. So if you can float it, u should be able to fish it. But then again i have no...
Ive always heard keep the drag at 1/3 your lbs test line. So if u use 10 lbs line set it at 3 lbs. have to have a scale of some kind to do this though. I fish a lot of ultralite stuff and have...
Were u fishing right up at the dam in the swift current? We went wednesday night and used white grubs and rooster tails and fished just strait out from the stairs at the parking lot (maybe 200 yards...

Processed wildlife, is what got them as it doesn't imply any protected species. It doesn't...
And camp carlson is the fins lake and open to the public.
I think u can still fish there as a civilian if u buy the post permit. Call (502) 624-7311 thats the hunt control offce and ask them
Both. Most panfish were caught bouning it along the bottom. Most smallies were caught slow retrieval. If u can find big rock ledges or big rock crevices, u will find the fish.
How many deep pools are on otter creek? Ive only found the one about 400m downstream from camp carlson.
Started off with white rooster tail. Caught 3 trout on those. Tried a crawfish crankbait with zero result. Had one good one on a small lipless cranbait but it came off. Then switch to small 2 inch...
Went and checked out the creek today. Nice and coo. What baits are the fish biting on this time of the year? Thinking inline spinners and white curly tail grubs with maybe some crawfish colored...
Awesome dude thx. All i have is the daytime to fish though. But i will try my dangest anyway. Ill take a sunburn and a skunk as long as im on the water.
Awesome so should i fish above or below the dam?
Can i get down behind lock 4 and fish from the bank? If not there, then can I bank fish around lock 5? I'm trying to find a place to catch some fish tomorrow on the ky river. Is that riverview...
I was up fishing lake michigan with a rooster tail. Snagged into a seagull in mid flight. Thing was it was kind of dusky so i never saw the bird take the actual bait. But i felt the pull on the line...
So i'll be coming down for a vacation to Panama City in July. The only thing though is, this little boy from Kentucky doesn't really know how to fish from the shore. Is there anyway to catch bait...
Well you guys have convinced me. Since i can catch 100 pounds of them in a day. I guess its time to start keeping them. Prepping for the zombie invasion and all.
Awesome. Guess ill start keeping them then and give them a try.
Any one here eat them? Afte some research on what they eat, I would think they taste fine. Just trying to poll some folks before i spend the time filleting one out.
Yep its 50 per boat not 50 per person. Page 16 of the fishing guide.
50 jugs is the boat max.
Yes just have to follow indianas size and creel limits and can only have 3 poles out i think.
Went again today, and caught 10 drum, largest of which was about 15lbs. Caught 1 small flathead and 1 14 inch whitebass. All on nightcrawlers on the bottom. Had a flippin blast. Wish i could have...
I went last night and didnt catch anything. I was on the ky side behind the hydros. Had a live shad on one rod and some deer liver on another for my catfish poles. Then i was tossing a small white...
Theres probably permits for it. There are many farm stocking business on the internets here in ky.
The river. Behindthe hydros on the ky side orthe falls on the ohio side. Can fish the mouth of the salt river also down in westpoint. Taylorsville lake. Guist creek lake. Both guist and t-ville...
Personal defense weapon. Ky is an open carry state, or opt for a concealed carry license. There areto many losers around, dont become a statistic.
I had thought catfish were considered rough fish. And besides ill eat any fish i can spear. Like you said though, i wont have to worry about sharks up here. What speargun would u recommend for the...

Does anyone spearfish the rough fish in kentucky?
I will probably have a catfish rod out and use another couple poles fishing with artificial baits for whatever may be biting.
The upper gage is at 12.5 and the lower gage is at 27. With the flow dropping. Would the falls or the hydros be fishable? Are there any recent reports from anyone over there. Im going this...
I'd imagine its the same reason people don't like to wear helmets while on a motorcycle. I'm not condoning either, as I wear my PFD's and would wear a helmet if I had a motorcycle. I'm just playing...
Im taking this one so I can rent boats from Ft knox and other military bases I may travel too. Its just one of the requirements i have came across at other military installations also, so might as...
Holy smokes this is a long monster of a course. I am learning quite a bit of stuff, but there is a lot that is irrelevant to us here in KY. Mainly ocean stuff of course.
Maybe its just me, but i have this same problem on other peoples short handled rigs. I have baitcasters with the long (maybe 2 handed) handles, which i can cast and flip like a semi-pro, when...
