Hey guys going fishing on black friday. Which lake will be the best? Barren, cumberland, dale hollow, Nolin, rough, or green ... close to them all which will be the best?

By the looks of some of the reports, nolin would be a good choice. I'd fish the upper lake, around dog creek or rock creek... Tr

never been there whats the lake like?

well, it's what i call a "hollow lake" channel is pretty deep, 35-60 ft. In places. It has several large creeks, since they've pulled the lake some you will see a lot of standing timber in the creeks. Lots of rock, anywhere from gravel, to large boulders. It's pretty easy to run, from the dam going up, 'til about what i call the "crossroads". That is where you can to
rock creek, or wax, then above wax, the river starts. Not real big, i've got a stratos 285xl, w/150 johnson, i can run from wax to the dam in about 20 -22 min.
Most of the time. The lower 2/3's say from dof creek down, it pretty clear, i'd say the main forage for bass is shad, followed by bluegill and crawfish. It has a good population of crappie, white bass, 'gills and catfish. It has both largemouth, and ky
bass, every now and then someone will catch a smallmouth.
I've been fishing it for about 45 years, i've only caught 3.
It does have some walleye, but i saw very few caught in the tourns. This summer. Hope this helps... Tr
