I have Thanksgiving week off and would like to take my father in law down to Ky Lake for a few days of crappie fishing before Thanksgiving. He nor I have ever fished the lake and I would like to help him get this off his bucket list. The problem is I have no idea where to go and would like some advice. My father in law being set in his ways will not spider rig so we will be doing mostly vertical jigging. He does like to fish stumps and laydowns but not sure what that will produce this time of year. Looking for any advice on what area we should concentrate on to fish as well as suggestions on where to stay.
