emptycooler, If you don't mind going to Lake Barkley I would go there.. I was just there a week ago for the Crappie USA tournament. Most of the winners came from the
Barkley side. Eddy Creek and Little River and a few other bigger coves. The fish are way more abundant and healthier... Most of the good fish was in steakbeds. 15 to 18 ft deep. On the drops. Good luck Kentucky Lake was always a favorite of mine.
