Well, I'm pretty bummed to hear the fish aren't hittin'. Sucks for us that only have a small window in which to hit the big lake. Oh well guess we will try and make the most of the trip. The invitation stands whiskers. We will be there tomorrow around 9:30am. Let me know if your interested in some good grub and some good b.s. Any ideas with the lake droppin?
good luck to you tomorrow
Thanks Jigshooter. Did you fish Kentucky today?
Bad for you guys, good for me!
Maybe they'll get the level shenanigans out of the way while I'm out of pocket trying to put my 6 year old daughter on a pile of catfish this weekend.

According to the official report, the lake is still slowly rising and won't hit it's peak until tomorrow (SAT) and then will hold steady for the weekend before beginning to fall next week. I think fishing is off mostly because of all the new water still coming in. I went bluegill fishing this afternoon with my two grandsons (from the shore) and we couldn't hardly buy a bite until the wind changes directions late this afternoon and the clouds really closed in. Then, in a matter of 30 minutes we caught a dozen bluegill and three small bass....and missed that many... from the same spot we had been fishing for two hours previous. Fish are having a hard time getting settled into anything....and sadly...just about the time they do, the lake is gonna start falling again. I hope they don't pull the plug and drain the bottom out of it!!!
Also the sun was in my eyes and I tripped on a rock. Oh yeah, my undies were ina bunch!!!!!!!!!!!!Quote:

Yesterday there was a good wet line on the trees and drift rows on the banks, even where they were protected from the wind. Got it wrote down right here in my log. Today that info shows a a drop from 362.89 to 362.71 between noon & 9 pm. When I talked to a buddy of mine at the dam yesterday at around 4:30 & he said it was falling slow. Now it's back up to where it was yesterday at this time. I can't figure those guys out. :mad:Quote:

Couple more days like yesterday & there's gonna be a sale on some really good fish'n equipment. Last 2 winters & my boat schedule have really messed up my fish'n.
I think I need to try a bay with a better defined creek channel. :(
You sellin for what your wife THINKS you paid for it?Quote:
