Snow Blowing, Wind Howling, Cold, Front moving Thru............ and I'm hooking up the Boat to head to Dale Hollow for about 5 days of rest, relaxation and FIGHTIN WITH THE BIGUNS. Holly Creek Marina here I come. One 12 Pound Smallie away from quitting my day job or at least take a few more weeks off to decifer all the endorsement deals (Tracker, Mercury, Quantum, P Line, plus start my own hand tied jig company) that will be coming my way after landing the WORLD RECORD SMALLMOUTH (Let a guy dream for a while) May even try to charge admission to show the exact spot where the big girl was landed.

Tight Lines / Stay Warm

Best of luck to you. I will be going down next weekend for three days. Please post your results when you get back. Don't forget about us when you become famous for the world record. Be careful and stay warm.

hey if any of you guys are fishing alone and want some company , I'll pay for some of the gasoline. I live 15 miles from dale, will be hitting the lake next week I hope, at present all my plans are up in the air, got a daughter in law dying of cancer, she been fighting it for almost two years and I guess not everybody wins.

Leaving on Friday till Monday afternoon. Staying at Horse Creek.
Hope all of you have good luck.
How about sharing the inside info. Could use all the info. we can get. Lake is getting real crowded in the winter. Its more like spring.

I'm not familiar with Dale...do you guys launch in Kentucky and stay in Kentucky or do you guys fish in Tennessee too?

[RippinLip]

I launch at the state ramp in Kentucky just across from Trooper Island...there is only one little lane open to use and it is a bit rough but you will have no problem floating the boat (unless there is ice or snow on the ramp). I do fish some in Tennessee but there is enough water and enough big smallies that you can easily stay on the Kentucky side.

Can I fish all of Sulphur Creek, Hendricks and Illwell with just a KY Liscense or do I need a Tenn. when I cross the line in those creeks?
