Barkley Lake is on FIRE.............FIRE I tell ya.

I got back yesterday after 3 solid days of fishing.

We caught nearly 50 fish a day with multiple bags of keepers. LOTS and LOTS of fish. Finally got on a good lipless bite, but caught fish on nearly everything but a crankbait .

Fish on Tubes, Jigs, shakey head, etc, etc.

Cannot wait to get back.

AND I should tell ya. If you want to REALLY figure out how to fish a bazillion acres of water, like the twin lakes (kentucky and Barkley), you should make the investment into Dave Stewards Familiarization classes.

They are AWESOME. I used techniques he teaches to literally destroy the fish. It is cool learning something that is relevant when fishing.

That is fantastic! I'm not even a bass fisherman but I can appreciate that effort. Do you fish Northern Barkley the most?

If it stays fairly stable, I suspect any of those shallow bays that are reasonably protected will hold fish. We caught fish on soft plastic creature baits. Green...and shades of GREEN.

We got on a good lipless bite on Sunday, but that was the only time we really had a good lipless bite.

Don't be afraid to fish shallow.........

I hope this helps..be careful...some of those shallow bays are REALLY shallow And you can tear up stuff quick.....If you're not sure, idle into them.

Yea, mostly North.

Yea, mostly North.

I'll be north Barkley in 2 1/2 weeks. These pics drive me crazy! Lol. I too took Daves class and you hit the nail on the head with your statement. Fishing north Barkley every spring the last 15 years don't hurt either.

[bigwormy]

Awesome pics too btw!!
