    Kentucky River dam 7 (high bridge area)

    Anyone have any luck over here? I've been there three times and all I've caught was a small drum. It seems like a good spot, id like to catch some catfish or hybrids, or at least get a bite from something. For bait fishing, I've used night crawlers, cut bluegill, and frozen shrimp on a three way swivel. For lures I've thrown mostly grubs and jerkbaits. ive fished right up in the current and about 100 yards downstream. Am I doing something wrong or is this place just a waste of time?

    KY River

    Zebco, though I haven't fished that area of the KY River, I will say that this time of year, the river can be tougher than a night in jail. Early spring is the opportune time to be on the river with late fall a close 2nd. Summer time with not much current = few bites and even fewer catches.

    Some good advise...
    Fall & Spring below the lock is good for walleye & Sauger...the colder the better...jigs tipped with minnow...


    I've fished all the way up the river on both sides.. Ky & Dix River to the Dam...

    Good Luck
