    Default Ky Lake 1st timer


    Going to Ky Lake for first time crappie fishing. Where should I start and how deep should I fish? And with what bait? Going in one week.

    First, get a map. There are shallow spots away from shore when the lake is drawn down like it is now, and a lower unit is an expensive way to find them.

    It's going to depend on the weather. Been cold, so I'd expect them to be deeper. I usually start at 12ft if I don't have any indication what they are doing in the spring. Minnows on a Kentucky rig and/or 16th oz jigs with black/chart or yellow grubs/tubes.

    What part of the lake are you going to?

    Big Sandy area is very good for crappie, and bass.

    There are a lot of good crappie over 1.5 pounds in this area.

    I have caught hundreds of crappie in the Paris Landing State Park area, near highway 79

    Good Luck.
    I live 10 miles from the 160,000 acre Kentucky Lake, and the 57,000 acre Barkley Lake is within 25 miles of my house. I live 10 miles from 220,000 acres of Water.

    I live in an Outdoor Paradise
