Well we got the hard lakes taken care of, so what's the easiest lake for Bass? Panfish? My vote for both would be Kentucky and Barkley but I havn't fished most. If Reelfoot wasn't 99% in Tennessee it would get my panfish vote. On another note the easiest place to catch fish in Kentucky would have to be the Cumberland River in my opinion. I can't think of another water that produces 25-50 fish per boat almost year round (trout). Yes I've had bad days there but very few.
