    Re: Question about KY Lake

    Pastor I was at Moors' this weekend and the water is so low the catfish had ticks on them.

    Stay in the channels and you will be fine the east part of the lake the river channel runs pretty straight and you have good water depth on that side but the secondary channel going out of Moors' can be a little confusing there is a map in the marina study the secondary channel, go slow until you are familiar with the channel and watch your depth finder.
    Good luck.

    Re: Question about KY Lake

    I would go buy a good map, especially if you don't have a gps with the channells marked. The channel down the east side pretty much runs paralel to the bank. The channel down the west side has some bends and curves in it, but it is marked extremely well. If you go down south any, I would look at the maps for entering into larger bays. Most of the mouths of these have some bars, humps, and rockpiles out in the middle, but most of them are marked too. I think Ky (with some common sense) is one of the easier to navigate lakes when at winter pool. The fishing should be great, but there are alot of season ending classics and regional tournaments going on so you may have a little traffic - but nothing like the summer months.


    I like Barkley this time of year too. I would be very cautious if you venture over there and stay in the channels when running above an idle.

    Re: Question about KY Lake

    The water level monday was so low you couldnt launch a bass boat at moors, i had to trailer to Big Bear in order to launch, so you might want to keep that in mind. Be careful, but you shouldnt have much problems if you stay in the channels like its posted above...
