    Question Need some info on the Ohio River out of Carrollton KY.

    I am a bass tournament angler that has an NBAA Championship to fish the week of May 12th. This is a team tournament, and dad and I fish as a team. We will be taking off from Carrollton, Kentucky. I was hoping some of you fellow anglers could give us some tips and areas to try on the Ohio or Kentucky rivers. Locations, activity (spawn/post spawn), and baits that produce at that time of year. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I would try small crankbaits (white or chartreuse) and small spinnerbaits.
    let us know how you do.

    I would lock up and fish around Craig's Creek or Big Bone

    Thanks for the info. I will give it a try in practice. Are there any good maps of the river? If so, where can I get one?

    if you go to Corp. of Engineers they used to have maps of the river system that you could download.

    If you can get thru Lock 1 on the Ky. Eagle creek would be a great place that time of year, its about 10 miles or so up river but would be worth it if you could get there and the water is right.
