    Bigger fish tip

    I need some help guys. I mainly fish KY/Barkley, Nolin, Rough, and Malone. I know there are big fish in these lakes, but my catches are spotty. I consistantly land keeper 15" fish, but my bigger bass are few and far between. What can I do to improve my catch? I throw a variety of lures, and can uasually zero in on what most bass are biting on, but I have trouble finding the bigger bass. I will appreciate any tips you can give me. Send me a PM if you don't want to show your secrete to the world. I am not a tourney fisherman, so I'm no threat there.

    I fished Nolin last weekend, stayed in one of those fishing cabins. I only caught 15" short fish. I did watch a weight in Friday night in the parking lot and saw a 6 and a half pounder.

    Re: Bigger fish tip

    i am no expert but i like to fish a little deeper then normal. big bass have a pattern they will use the same channel, creek, road bed, humps, exc. they use these to go from deep to shallow. and alot of times big fish hang together. if i am catching fish that are 15inch or smaller in 10 feet or less i will fish 10 feet and deeper. and i like to thank that a bass 3 to 3 1/2 and bigger is a big fish to me. i like to fish points with a channel, a cove with a creek running in it, i like to find isolated cover and structure too. like i said i am no expert, i have ben fishin since i was old enough to hold a pole, but only realy ben bass fishin for 6 years and this seems to work for me. my biggest fish is 7.8 pounds and i got that this year on a crank bait before that it was a 5 pounder on a black grape worm i got the first year i realy started bass fishin so take it for what ever its worth these are just things i fill comfertable doing. hope some of this might help

    thanks
    chuck
