    Re: Well....I about DIED on Ky lake Sunday.

    Glad to hear you escaped the near miss ok Geo. There is a reason I don't guide on holiday weekends anymore...and that ledge you were fishing is a sure place to get run over from the party boats back there on that beach area in Smith Bay for sure.

    We were coming off the Purchase Parkway at Draffenville Sunday and had a green light at the end of the ramp where it intersects U.S. 68....as I started to turn right I saw a blurr off to my left and it was a pick up truck doing about 60 and he ran the light at full speed...did not even attempt to slow down....it would have been bad had I not caught that blurr coming from the left....I guess it just was not mine nor your turn to die yesterday.

    No doubt..........My good buddy..........theBassMan30 was a lot calmer that I was about it.......As soon as he was in the boat, I wanted to chase them down and open up a couple cans..........

    Instead, we continued fishing.........just not that ledge

    BTW.....I'm not too sure I was fishing it right, but man oh man.....I caught 8 fish on 8 casts on the rig there......and it was FUN. We tried our luck at ledge fishing, but I REALLY need to come see an expert .

    We fished ledges on KY and Barkley pretty much all weekend. We did ok marginal Saturday, Better Sunday and marginal again on Monday.

    Funny thing......we started out planning a night fishing trip. We made it down to the lake by 6:00pm on Friday, and fished until 12:00am with only 2 or 3 fish. The bassMan had not made it down to the lake yet....he had been fishing Barren and hammered them Friday, and had planned on meeting us at 12:00am or so. When we met, we decided to fish for a few more hours, and the make a call on changing our plans or continueing night fishing.

    Well, we didn't catch another fish in 2 hours, so we went to the hotel, slept for 3 hours and hit the lake again at 6:00am for the morning bite. WE went back to the hotel around 2:00pm for a couple hour nap. After napping, we headed back out at 5:00pm, and fished till Dark.

    After Saturday, we got back on schedule and fished Sunday and Monday from Sunup to Sundown.

    Later,

    Geo

    Glad you all are OK. I took a dip a couple years ago because a big cruiser did the same to me.

    Geo - If you want some peaceful fishing down here, come down here the weekend gun season opens for deer. It is probably my favorite weekend to be on the lake. You can fish all day and only run into a handful of other boats. Give me a call - we got an extra room here for you.
