    Re: Friday night trip @ Cumberland

    We fished friday night also. We didn't catch but 1 or 2 until about 2:30. Then they turned on. The Fish were against the banks for sure. We ended up catching 11 stripers and about 7 or 8 largemouth/smallmouth. The stripers really didn't have any size to them though. We caaught 2 that weighed about 12 pounds and the rest were in the 5-8 pound range. So we had a pretty good night.

    I am going down for a couple of nights this week. If you don't mind, would you tell me if you found fish still in the creeks or had they made it to the main lake bluffs yet?

    Smile Re: Friday night trip @ Cumberland

    Went friday night also.. Took a neighbor of mine that has never caught a striper. He caught one 19.3lbs. I honestly had more fun watching him fight and land that fish than catching one myself. We never got bit until about 2:30 then had 4 total by 4am. It wasn't until we started working the slivers like a jerkbait that we got bit. 2nd cast working like that got one 15lbs. You had to work the sliver hard and fast to get a hit. He already reserved a seat in the boat for next w/e LOL...

    Never left the creek. Topwater worked the best for us. I would crank a little and let it set for a few seconds. They would hit it while it was still. Nothing like catching em on topwater. Man i love that sound.

    I am going by myself and have not finalized the cottage yet. I can get one with 2 beds if you want to go for pennies more and you can leave your junky Ranger at the house and we can fish out of my junky Tracker. I am driving down Tuesday afternoon and fishing Tuesday night, Wednesday night and Thursday night. Let me know if you want to go, 502-226-0935.

    Re: Friday night trip @ Cumberland

    You guys make me sick LOL Here I am in Mississippi with all this water and rivers around me and nothing to fish with. Elwood you all take it easy on those stripes this week and save me a few. When I get back to Kentucky Friday night/ Saturday morning I'm coming with a vengeance. The fish have been avoiding me for two weeks now and I hope to wreak havoc when I get back. Good luck to you all.
