Welcome to Bowling Green! I have lived here for 10 years now and absolutely love it! bg64vw is right on with his recommendations. I would add Three Springs park as well (straight down Three Springs road off of Scottsville Rd, right before you go over I-15). Don't go there with the expectations of catching big bass....but there are lots of fish in there....everything from lm bass (5-16"), some big bluegills, big redears, channel cats, crappie, carp, and trout during the winter months. It's accesible all around it and is even more fun in a canoe or little boat. Barren river tailwaters is probably your best bet in getting into some nice fish.....big hybrids, catfish, crappie, blue gills, gar, lm & sm bass, and even some muskies up that high. Don't forget the Barren River as it goes through town, lots of fish as well. Also, Shady Hollow lake...some good fishing fairly close. Welcome!
