I WATCHED A KENTUCKY AFIELD AT GUIST...THEY PULLED OUT SOME NICE BASS, AND QUITE A FEW OF THEM. THEY WERE THROWING A 3 1/2 INCH PUMPKIN TUBE RIGGED TEXAS STYLE. I'M HOPING IT WASN'T JUST A FLUKE AND I CAN GET INTO SOME OVER THERE. I'VE HEARD A LOT ABOUT THE HYBRID ACTION BELOW THE DAMS ON THE OHIO.....WHICH DAM DO YOU FISH THE MOST? I'VE HEARD A LOT ABOUT MELDAHL...IS IT THE BEST? I'M NOT LOOKING FOR YOUR HONEY HOLES...I'M JUST GONNA BE LOST WHEN WE GET UP THERE......................................HELP!!! !
These fish are very nomadic, They tend to travel ,so each dam on the river has it's turn, as they follow bait,temps, and seasonal preferences, To say which is better is hard. Things change every day.That being said I've had very good sucsess at Mcalpine,The one thing that this area has is the largest sedimentery rock formation possibly in the world, and the only so called falls of the Ohio, A natural stopping place for every speices because of it's rock and sand bottom.Two dams a Z wall, hydro electric plant and a loch system and many other things that get a fishes attention. There's my $3.00's Worth.. and still cheaper than gas...Chuck
