Did the flooding affect below the dam or is water good to make a trip up this weekend to try for trout?
Past couple of weeks with the temps we're having it has slowed down for me quite a bit. I had been doing fair in late evening catching a few of everthing.
I tried to target some shellcrackers Sat. 5/14 at Barkley with no luck;and not many large Bluegills either. Do you think the spawn is about over or do i just need better spots? My son said you would...
I had the day off Friday and fished Ky Lake and Bass bite were all 12"-13" fish but I did catch 8 ea big Bluegill and 2 ea big channel cats all on lures.
Nice catch! What was the length?
Fished Ky Lake for a few hours Saturday and stuggled. Only caught a small SM and lost a couple of small fish.
Well my plan for this weekend was to hit up some rivers for the White Bass runs that should about to be in full swing but all rivers near me are now out of their banks and chocolate milk and more...
This was a couple weeks ago.
The lakes are definitely not dead yet. I have had some good luck on gravel flats on main lake lately catching a lot of everything LM & SM Bass, White & Yellow Bass, Drum, Cannel Catfish, Bluegill,...
Sounds like you really didn't do anything wrong but some days they are easier to catch than others. Small jigs, inline spinners, and spoons all work well to catch them at times. I noticed them...
Great catch!!
It's been a unusual fishing year but Bass bite is picking up with the cooling waters. Lots of baitfish this year which is a good thing.
Beshear tried to take money from Fish&Game that came from boat tag fees and I think also tried to take money that Fed gave Ky to fight the asian carp but it got stopped; so the little dictator has a...
Did you get a length on that 20lb fish? Nice catch by the way; catching one is on my bucket list.
My 2 biggest Bass came on cloudy rainy days.
Really you going to call the gov about cars at boat ramps? All that is going to do is get them to shut down all boat ramps for everybody.
Last year I got to fish it some from shore while I was on vacation in smokies in Oct. and was told it was mainly a LM lake but I caught more SM on my trip.
I was thinking that someone could still drown while wearing a life jacket at a lot of these dams. Sad to hear.
Does anyone know if he had a life jacket on or not?
They feed up before weather gets bad. Nice catch I lost some good ones this year but haven't been able to get a LM Bass over 4lbs yet so I hope my time is coming soon.
Didn't want to sound like I don't want the owner to get his tackle back but like I said this day and time you had better see to it yourself and report it where you think it will do some good but I...
Bad idea, I once found a expensive ring in a restaurant and left it with manager in case owner came back looking for it. Checked back for awhile and He said no one had claimed it yet;after two weeks...
Fly fishermen have decent success sight casting to carp but be prepared for a fight if you hookup!
I had a ad pop up on this site one day this week.
Went to Rough River Lake and caught 5 really nice Bluegill on ultra light and a 13" Ky Bass. Caught a few other small Ky Bass and BG as well so not bad for a few hours time. Was a very pretty lake...
If you had a choice to fish Rough River Lake or Nolin Lake from the bank this afternoon/evening which would you choose and why? Any tips for either lake.
Seems like they quit biting at least for me. In the area I was catching them a lot of big asian carp moved in; hooked into one and it nearly spooled all my 4lb line before hook pulled out after a ten...
Yesterday after work I went to Barkley and saw four nice Redear caught in five mintues while I was putting my Kayak in; at least one of them was over a pound. I was thinking it was going to be on...
Late yesterday afternoon at Ky Lake I did catch 4-5 nice 8" bluegill,14" Smallmouth,14"Largemouth,and a 5lb Channel Cat all on my really Ultra light bluegill rod;they were some fun fights...touch and...
It is definitely harder fishing than in the past but I've had some good trips to Barkley lately. Ended up at the Lake at my lunch time the other day and caught 5 ea LM Bass 14"-16" in a hour from the...
I wished I had took a picture but I was in my kayak and drifting into some fast water and big logjams and I wasn't comfortable drifting into that water so I quickly released the fish. My fish was...
I caught a small 10" Coosa Bass yesterday in Little River several miles upstream from it goes into Lake Barkley.
The White Bass run should be starting and you can find them on Little River down to Barkley Lake but this will just be the Yellow Bass and White Bass.Put in a park in Cadiz and float down toward the...
I was at both Lakes Saturday and water color wasn't to bad but fish were not biting for me or everyone I talked to.
How did you do?
It is getting that time of year!
Barkley Lake was pretty muddy colored around little river area Sat. and I didn't have any luck bank fishing for a couple hours. Drove down to Ky lake and fished in the Ky Dam Village area and only...
Major League Fishing does it right not a fan of other styles.
Doesn't let me see the pictures.
What did you catch them on?
I always do with the Asian carps and planned to with this one if I could have landed him.
I think I snagged one of these a few weeks back on Lake Barkley. I was bank fishing and snagged one about 10-15lbs in the belly on 8lb test line & med light rod and fight was on! I got it to the...
She released the fish.
Yes I was bank fishing where a creek channel comes close to bank and a big flat;had been a few warm days after the cold spell and hit it just rite to find fish chasing bait at this location. Before I...
When I was in Gatlinburg years ago I saw some big trout in that river in town.
Had to send a pic to my computer and then upload from there; i do not see a way to upload pics from a phone to this site.
Cabins on the dock...that is pretty nice!
I can't upload a picture from my phone on this site;there is no option to do that?
12/16/18 Found a school of Yellow Bass yesterday and caught 50-60 fish 6”-8” long for a while it was a fish almost every cast. I only caught one Bass out of this school but it was a giant Ky Spotted...
