    See the link below for data on lake conditions.
    http://lakecumberland.com/stats.php There is also a link there which takes you to the latest CE fishing report. Good luck with the SM.

    Keep a big rod spooled with 20lb Mono and the biggest Zara Spook or Knucklehead Sr tied on because by October 31 there could be a school of Stripers busting all around you at the drop of a hat. You talking about fun. Caught 13 in 2 hours all on topwater a few years ago the 3rd week of October and all of them were bigger than 15lb each. One of those experiences on the water that you will never forget.

    This time of year a gig with craw type trailer on main lake and creek points is good also crank baits coming out of boat traffic water(2-3 ft. of colored water on the bank) will some-times give you an out standing day. Water will probably start to color up some due to all the rain not sure about the temp. will probably go monday if I do will post report. Shinerman

    I have to eat something and since I can't catch Walleye or Crappie, Stripers are the next best thing. Besides the more of your "Pets" that I catch is the less that eat my little Brown fish.
