    I apologize for the very disrespectful behavior and how "some" of the people of the county that I live in are treating people. There is a lot of great people around here too but the trash always seems to stand out. These idiots are always wanting to fight and cuss people all the time until they are outnumbered. It is sad but I do not go fishing there or the river in Henry Co. without carrying a gun with me because of these trash and the law very rarely gets out here so its a pretty lawless area. Its is a very sad issue but all the farm ponds I fished around here growing up are gone because of these people taking every fish out of them and not giving a **** about other people. Mr. Farmer catching a big fish or someone posting on hear is not the problem, the idiots taking the fish already knew about the lake so it was only a matter of time till this happened. By the way Mr. Farmer I love the show and maybe you can help us get some law around here and the Ky river because this has been happing for years on the river with bass and sauger. I just say sorry to everyone for all the good law abiding people of Henry County. If people can take a camera and try to sneak a picture of these idiots keeping fish or of there truck or boat.

    Raider 502

    Well the damage has been done ! This lake has been cleaned out. When this Lake first opened my son and I were on the Lake every chance we got, catching some nice fish but always giving them a kiss and putting them back in. And yes, we also witnessed fish being kept and takin out. As we fished this Lake over the last two years we watched boats being pulled out on the dock knowing they had some big fish in there live wells, wishing a Game Warden would pull in. Well here it is mid May 2016 and were really struggling to catch fish. And I've been skunked the last two times out this spring. (not good ) We were on the Lake one day last summer when to F&W boys were shocking the lake for fish counts and they said they've noticed a huge drop off on the fish numbers. I can say from here on out we'll be watching and paying more attention to what the other boats are doing with there fish. I've got the Poachers HOTLINE in my phone. I'm ready now... Let's try CATCH AND RELEASE fella's Here's a hot tip : I hear there's big fish being caught at McNeely Lake.

    Well, we/me called it and it actually happened in about the same amount of time we expected to. The lake is nothing now, I haven't been all year and why would I go like this poster said its all but cleaned out. No law enforcement at this lake made for a Hilljack's dream free for all.

    ''Hey bubba lets keep every one we catch and has us a fish fry''............well enough does that and you get an empty lake. I witnessed it almost every time I went there when this lake opened and it was WAY over the top to. Nice thought KDFW but with no law enforcement it was nothing more than a lake purging for the masses.

    Hearing the lake is cleaned out makes me sad. I just got into bass fishing and kayaking this summer and had heard Benjy Kinman was worth checking out, especially for kayak fisherman... I guess I won't be checking it out now.

    Unhappy Raider 502

    It's not only been fished out ! it's also drying up. We we're out there Dove hunting last week and noticed the water was down about 8-10 feet. It didn't look good....
