From what I have seen on Dale this indeed holds true. I have fished it for over 20 years and I pray that it either rains or snows everytime I'm there. Never been there and not caught fish when it was...

I use it here for tube and fluke fishing and @ Dale for everything. I buy it by the 1000yd spool. The Eugene Bend and San D Jam knot are great for it. I always use Eugene Bend Knot. Easy to tie in...

It moves with the wind. No fish down there anyway! Everyone stay away from the lower end.

No there are not to many fish in Dale to compete for available O2. There are however fish that are stressed due to the temps. That happens, its normal for some to die out. 158 fish does not put a...

2006 Skeeter SX 200 Dual Console



Purchased New in March of 2007. 19’ 10” .Dual Console.Boat has been used 4 trips per year since I bought it. 2006 Yamaha Vmax 150 Carb. No ethanol run thru...

Its 6+ but no more than 7. Look at the way shes holding it. Tail first out stretched arms. A small girl at that. Some of these replys are rediculous with the weights. Some of these people must have...

Screw that. Only comply with the law. People who give in to this sort of inncorrect enforcment only contribute to it happening again. Make sure you are correct on the law and and be polite. Gotta...

have a buddy who wants to get a boat, not really looking at any particular make (although he prefers "Ranger's"), but his credit is not so hot.

Nothing like champagne taste on a beer budget. Tell...

No such thing as an economical towing vehicle. You got to pay to play.

Thats what that lake has been for years. Trashtrap was the name we called it. Nice crappie to be caught in there. We got on the clorox bottle mat pattern when I used to fish it.

That year model was notorious for having the brushes in the trim motor stick. Change out brushes and clean all the graphite out with compressed air.

Transition time at Dale from what I have experienced. Night bite is slowing down. I have trouble with the day bite this time of year so I usually wait until Mid to late Nov when the water cools down...

sold!!!!! 7/09/2007

Yeh they blew all there funds on Elk

Depends on how you want to fish. Live bait go with Randall Gibson. Bobber fishing/ Float n fly go with Greg Brisdendine, Swimbait,grub jerkbait cranks Keith Palmiero. They all know their stuff

Yes by all means hate them. Or just avoid them which is not easy in KY. When I left the largemouth lakes and started fishing rivers that bassboats can't run in life got better. Now the onlytime my...

That is exactly right. Why would the want to do a show on Laurel. Cumberland I can see because of the money in the area assosiated with the lake. But Laurel come on they would'nt catch enough fish to...

.22 Mag to the head always works for me!

Sunline sniper if you can find it is with out a doubt the best I've used( very expensive but good). P-line #2 Seaguar invisex #3 if you don't mind stretch. Bass pro is ok pretty big for its lb size....

I would leave him at the boat ramp. When people go out with me to fish for fun they are a guest. Guests get treated with respect but they fish for as long as I fish. And you let them know how long...

Salt in the soft plastics collecting moisture. Temp difference of the boxes to the ambient outside temp makes it condense. Try the water proof style boxes. Mine still occasionally have moisture in...

Thats how I do it. I had a merc 115 one time and never winterized it. Heck winter is when I start fishing now and put the boat to bed in may after the buckeyes and pleasure boaters come out.

Swimbaits in KY. Heck yeah they work. They are also one the best baits for catching big fish. I use them year round here in WV for smallmouth. I usually throw yum Money Minnow in 5 inch with weighted...

Thats something alot of fisherman seem to miss. And its not just them its also p-line and others. Now if diameter is of no concern go for it.

I don't care for it that much it does have alot of memory. Just run two fingers down the line you can feel the inconsistencies of the line. The diameter is huge. 6lb looks like 10lb. Sunline is good...

So no moisture gets in the reel through the spool. All that water builds up on the line and travels down the holes and into the bearings and gears. First thing I do to a new reel.

Try these out I have been fishing these on Dale and up here a good bit and they work great. Love the Chart/ Shad. Both sizes are equally good. Smaller one better on the bobber.
...

Have you ever noticed in that book where Star Point Marina is located on Dale Hollow? They have it in the wrong creek.

Just tighten the drag as tight as you can get it and push the handle straight in towards the reel. Should feel it pop and then unscrew backwards.

It depends on the temp. If the water gets down below 40 for a while and then pops up a few degrees you absolutley can catch the big ones. My best days for big fish up here is in Feb-March when it...

They mix it with water so they can pump it to impoundments. Better than having toxic dust flying around everyday. Except when the dam breaks.

hey what do ya know I'll be down there from the 10-15th. I might have to get together with you guys.

What are the dates for this event?

I had some gas come up missing one day so I decided to set out some bait for the punks. Two 5 gal cans with a little gas lots of sugar and water. Set them out by my storage shed on a Friday night....

West Virginia DNR has been stocking those walleye for 5 years now. I know they were sharing eggs from VA, KY and also from shocked natives out of the New here in WV. They are fairly common now and...

Entire Lot Sold Thank You

I have 5000 tubes and soft jerkbaits/stickos for sale. $17/100 pk or .15 cents each if you buy 500. Free shipping!! Tubes are 3.5 and 4 inch jerk baits are 5 inch. All are scented. Tubes are cross...

Just wondering if you can launch now at this level. Are they any better than State Dock?

Any one try the Trilene Professional Fluoro. I looked at it and gave it the bite test. It seems like it has alot of stretch. If anybody is using it, is it as good as the Seaguar.

I was trying figure out what river you were talking about but its the Licking River. Thought you might be fishing a lake in Illinois. I once had argument with a guy who was trying to tell me there...

This is for anyone who is willing to help. I spend a little time in central Ky over the holidays and absolutly struck out yesterday on Dale. Only caught one largemouth. So I am offering a paid guided...

Allright I can't stand it anymore. I haven't been to Dale in 15 years so here goes nothin. Headed down to fish it on Sat and Sun. Just wondering which ramp should I use? I'll be comming through...

I do read alot of post here without posting myself. Mainly because I am a displaced kentucky boy who longs to fish my old haunts again. Now I could post alot of smallmouth river reports but not many...

Hey thanks for the info. Our water temps up here are already in the low 50's to upper 40's so It's time to give it a try. I may try to get down there for the seminars, I'm down that way alot with...

Just wondering how small a swivel I need to use. Going to give it a try up here on the New River in WV. Anybody willing to trade trips at Dale for some New River float trips ? Have raft and bassboat...

Im headed to Aurora. Just wondered if you can save any time going through Hopkinsville and just going 68. Last time I went BG parkway it beat the crap out of my trailer. thanks

Whats the best route to KY lake from Richmond KY? Going up to BG parkway or going down to Cumberland parkway to BG and across 68. Thanks

Looking for a good aftermarket travel cover for a skeeter 200sx Anybody have an opinion. Thanks
