Lake Cumberland- Bait Situation

[HURRICANEBOB]

NO WAY in hell would I do that........NO WAY.

I good way to get shot, or a very good ass kickin if you ask me.

Okay...which one? Did ya note when I talked about lights around a dock I noted: "Last choice, and be darn careful with this", then "look for lights close to the water near the dock where no houseboater or guide is likely to take offense to you being there. "

To make the last statement clearer, I'm talking about lights that may be by a boat ramp, or lights that may be on a walk way leading to the dock, or a light near a dock where the slip is empty.

To be much clearer, I'm talking about respecting people's property and looking for a light where you can try to catch bait only after you think about it, you are pretty darn sure will not offend anyone. When in doubt, use plan "B", head to a 40 foot deep lake cove, drop a light, and relax with coffee till the shad request permission to enter your livewell,

Throwing on other people's lights without prior permission is a shooting offense. If it's too much trouble to put your own light out, then buy shiners.

As others have said......those permits around the houseboats, and for dock space are CRAZY expensive......

I would not even ask.
