HELP - Should we fish KY Lake Thurs/Friday

[kylakenitro]

I'm in the same boat.........still wondering........supposed to leave Thursday Morning, but not too sure now......I'm REALLY concerned about the flooding, and would HATE to make the trip to KY lake to a NON-FISHABLE condition.

I still think we're good, but who knows.........Still 6 inches or so predicted for KY lake area.........

ANYONE over there have any ideas.......and can you guys continue to post conditions.

Later,

Geo

Geo, so far we havent gotten enough rain to amount to much. They are calling for it to move into the area tonight. They are not forcasting as much for us as the are southern Illinios. I will keep track of the weather and post on here if much changes. With Ky lake being an older lake it doesnt muddy up as bad as Barkley. The Lake temps have climbed into the lower 50's and should keep climbing. The higher water has the fish scattered but they are catchable. I even caught a 4lb LM Sunday in 2 ft of water next to flooded buckbrush on the main lake.

I wouldn't change my plans if it were me. The weather is going to be pretty after tomorrow......Good Luck

Man...........THANKS for the update.............Now, I'm worried about the wind..........with 15-20 on Friday, I'm going to be locked into the bays.........

What do you guys think about that........

I wouldn't worry about being in the bays. It seems that a good amount of the better fish lately have been coming from the bays. I won a tourney on sunday, caught almost everything in the bays - it was about the only place out of the wind too. The fish are scattered all around, so there isn't any one pattern that is loading the boat now. I just drove over the lake, and looks like it has seen better conditions. I hope most of the forecasted rain avoids us, but I think we will get a dose of it - actually it is coming down now, but in spurts.

There is still no other place in Kentucky I would rather be.

Like Col said i wouldnt worry about the bays. There are alot of big fish being caught in the bays. I fished alot of main lake cuts outta the wind Sunday and caught alot of fish. I'm goin to try flipping friday if the water isn't dropping to fast......

hey man ive only been to ky/barkley once for a week and we had two days of almost no wind...apparently down there if you have a day or so with winds below the 15 mark then youve been blessed for those lakes...just what i have heard,so i wouldnt worry about the winds but i would worry bout the waves it can make
