    I think they'd do anything to generate tourist dollars in that state! Remember how they made those outrageous claims about Cumberland Lake?! I guess when your state is very poor, you do what you have to do...

    Locally, you should check out the Falls of the Ohio. You catch all kinds of drum on white roostertails or white curly tail grubs. It's also not uncommon to foul-hook a catfish there either. I've foul-hooked some that I had to fight for a half hour or so! There's even been some that I ended up a good 200 yards downstream...the fight was much like that one in the movie, "A River Runs Through It" in the fact that I was all in the water and the current was taking me and the fish!
    You know that was a cool movie, I liked it alot.

    I agree about the movie. I've never really been much into fly fishing, but after watching that movie I ended up buying a fly rod and tried it out...and I really liked it!
