Thread: West KY at the Green River Lake crappie camp ...

Thanks to everyone for making the Spring Fling a success. I hadn't fished Green for about four years so it was nice to know that at least some of my old spots still hold fish. Day one was a banner day fishing
solo in the camo Triton joined by Doug and Rickie in Doug's boat. Big fish were a 13.5" white and a 12.5" black, caught countless fish pulling crankbaits all day. Bonus fish was a 18.5" muskie early in the morning. Day two was off to a slower start for me as the bait had moved quite a bit but once we landed on them, the cookie cutter 9 1/4"-9 1/2" white crappie were steady. Three nice white bass rounded off the day and it is nice to see them making a comeback in the lake.

The fish were surprisingly still suspending over the deep flats and not relating to significant structure. Crankbait trollers and planer board fishermen should be having a field day right now. Do your homework, put in a little time to cover some water, and you'll be rewarded with good numbers.

It definitely wont be another four years before I return. Already looking forward to next year's event. We'll hopefully see you guys this fall at the KY Lake fall shindig.

John, don't take this the wrong way but I had to laugh when you mentioned 2 foot rollers. 2 foot rollers on KY Lake is a calm day. Try some 5-6 foot rollers where you have to look up to see daylight between waves.

Rickie, Adam and I all noticed the difference in most of the bass boats on Green. I saw far more 18-19 foot glitter boats there. You will see mostly 20-22 foot boats here. Refer back to 5-6 foot rollers.
