Thread: blood river

Thanks old guide is that a week long tourney and do they spread out for from that area as far as launching is concerned.?

Actually Pab they are running the spring tournament out of Barkley State Park. Something different this year. Then the Crappie USA Classic is this fall on Kentucky Lake and it will be held out of Paris Landing. I like the Paris Landing Marina for weigh-in's. Plenty of parking and pretty much a straight shot down 280/119/121 from Blood. But Barkley is good too. And I do like to see the site move around so it gives other people the chance to weigh in closer to where they fish. I would expect them to go back towards the north end, Kentucky Dam or the Moors one of these days. It ha been a few years since they weighed in up there.

And Pad is right Fatfish. There is a seminar the night before but the day of the tournament you go to whatever ramp you want to use to put in. You just can't fish until 0630 hrs. And you can't fish past 1500 hrs. and be in the line to weigh in by 1600 hrs. So for the guys who want to fish the Blood area most use Wildcat or the Cobb to launch. Some go towards the LBL but the bulk fish by spider rigging the old Blood River channel from the mouth back in towards crappie hollow. Depending on where they like to fish.
