Fish below the **** dam for huge catfish and incredible hybrid action. The Ohio can produce large numbers of bass in the spring and fall, with a few big fish. It can be really tough the rest of the year though. Taylorsville and Guist are an absolute joke compared to Barren, KY Lake, Dale Hollow, etc. If you want bass, better stay home or lower your standards. I moved from down there also, trust me. Some of these guys will argue what I just wrote and tell you how good Taylorsville is yada, yada. Those would be the same guys who make a couple trips a year down to Barren and think they really caught 'em cause they had five fish all day that weighed 12 pounds.Originally Posted by RICHYD4U
I really don't mean to bust your bubble but, a lot of guys on this site got me fired up to fish these spots and they are just not that good. The exception being the cat and hybrid fishing below the ****. FANTASTIC. However, you really need to make several trips with someone who knows the area. It is dangerous.
On a more useful note, downsize your lures around here from what you are accustomed to throwing back home. You will get more bites. There is an exception to this rule but I won't donate that info to everyone reading. Good luck.
