Best Time/place For Hybrids In Ky???

summer/night fishing

Barren River

get right against the bluff walls and throw mostly anything that imitates a shade that runs from 0-10ft or less...throw as parallel to the walls as you can and listen for them to be bustin....but yea barren is the top place in ky

I've done really well at Rough River in April using #7 shad raps trailed by pet spoons. I have also used live shad that time of year when i see some I can net. Usually troll long flats with drop offs near by.

THAT'S FUNNY THAT YOU SHOULD MENTION THAT....MY UNCLE AND I TRIED ROUGH RIVER LAST JUNE WITH THAT EXACT SET-UP, HAVING HEARD THAT IT PRODUCES......AND...NOTHING! WE WERE BUMBED! WE TROLLED DOWN ALONG THE EDGE OF THE CHANNEL, AROUND THE LITTLE ISLAND THERE AND BACK SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO HITS. HOWEVER, WE DID GO BACK A FEW WEEKS LATER AND GOT BACK INTO A BAY WITH STAND-UPS AND JUST KILLED THE LARGE-MOUTH! THAT WAS FUN! WE DID SEE TWO GUYS WHO WERE TRYING TO CATCH CRAPPIE WITH MINNOWS, BUT THEY KEPT HOOKING INTO HYBRIDS! THEY WERE GOOD SIZE TOO! WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY LIVE BAIT AT THE TIME....YOU NEVER HAVE IT WHEN YOU NEED IT! HA! I KNOW THEY'RE IN THERE THOUGH....DEFINETLY GONNA TRY IT AGAIN THIS YEAR...THANKS FOR THE HEADS-UP! HAGD!
