Not sure if you are fishing this weekend or next...but no matter. Been over 3 weeks since I went out, but plan on going tomorrow (Sunday). Will be fishing main lake, near mouth of creeks. Don't believe fish are up in creeks yet. I expect to find fish at 30 feet or less. Plan is to pull planner boards with live bait (shiners) and maybe put out a couple of downriggers, ~ 30 feet. May mix it up a bit on the downrigger; hair jig, swimbait, etc.


Also, keep a casting rod handy with a surface lure tied on (spook, etc.) Good chance you may find stripers busting shad on the surface.

For more information, see Sasser's and Durham's fishing reports on this web site http://www.fishin.com/reports/ky/ky-...umberland2.htm

Good Fishing to You
