    So you're saying KDFWR released them? I didn't know that. When did this happen? Got any links? I just thought they were native to the area.

    River were at one time native to Ky but their population declined so the KDFWR started a reintroduction program form them. They first released some in Barren River above the lake. Seem like they have taken hold now.

    I heard the KDFWR released them as well, not sure why. They have definately taken hold here.
