Number of Fishermen

[Jackster]

This may seem like a strange question, but I was having a discussion with a buddy of mine and we wanted to get some feedback. From a pure numbers view what lake in Kentucky do you think has the most bass fishermen? We both have our ideas, but I wanted to see what other people thought.

Thanks

No doubt K&B especially in warmer weather.

I would say from nov to late feb Dale or Cumberland from March on ky and Barkley my 2 cents

[elnutsmalljaws]

Kentucky and Barkley.

Just consider the two organizations that have their classics at the same time this coming fall, and each predicts 300-400 boats and at the same ramp, if I am not mistaken.

Also, consider the fact that the pro's (FLW, Everstart, BASS elite, etc.) all visit Ky Lake.

for the size lake i have never seen a more fished lake than taylorsiville lake.

myself i would not give you 2 cents for it

but there will always be bass fishermen all over the lake

I think KY Lake and Barkley still have more fishermen on them through most of the months you mentioned if you think about the number of crappie and sauger fisherman. They may also have a snagging season below the Dam there that time of year.

I think if you go by acres of water instead of just the lake Barren would have to be up there. Ky/Barkley is always the favorite but Barren I think would be in the top 3

As far as "the fishing season" goes (March through November), Kentucky Lake has the most boat launches. They may run to barkley, but most tourneys and such start at Kentucky. Just try to crappie fish in June and you'll see what it's like. Fisherman going for bull bluegill, crappie, and bass will be on every point and cove in the lake from friday to monday. Well, Energy Lake will not have that much traffic. :),. unless they have the UMF championships there again this year.
Take care.
