As I was tying the boat down the other evening I heard something from a couple of guys talking to another fella getting ready to head out. One guy said, ''We are fixin to head out and get some of those big Hybrids''. I started to go over and educate but didn't because I've actually had people get red in the face and argue with me on this.

GUYS, ONCE AND FOR ALL.............THERE ARE NO HYBRID STRIPERS IN LAKE CUMBERLAND.

And if there is by chance the KDFWR DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THEM AT ALL............

What this means if you go out and keep stripers under 24 inches and get caught you will get yourself a big fat fine without question.

Not trying to beat anybody up here but it's important to know the laws on any given body of water so if by chance you were confused this will clear it up. If you doubt this call the Department in Frankfort and see if they don't explain to you exactly what I just said.

There are alot of guys fishing that lake keeping undersized stripers thinking it's alright because they think they are catching hybrids, not true.
