I believe to get from Sulpher Creek (which is mostly KY water on Dale) to Ilwill Creek (which is all KY property) you have to go around Dale Hollow SP point which in the water looks like Tennessee property. I don't keep any bass period but if I had crappie in my livewell out of Sulpher, and I was running (not fishing) in the Tennesse connector water to Illwill, and I got pulled over by a gamewarden and fined I would first fight it then if fined call it a bad day and move on.

First, I have never been pulled over by a warden if I was not fishing or taking out the boat. Does not mean it does not happened but has not happened in 25 years. Second, Dale is very different then KY or Barkley. In Dale, one could go from KY to Tennessee water 5 times in 5 minutes of driving. Gamewardens have common sense and I believe they would generally apply the law appropriately. Now, if I'm taking out in Tennessee with a livewell full of fish with only a KY lisence then I think that would be risky.

I would not be surprised if someone worried about this possibility does not run down the lake at +50MPH with no life jacket on. That seems like a much bigger risk all things considered
