Thread: Kentucky Lake Crappie

Wiskers, if your off of the old tug 24th I would love to get together with you and do little fishing I would buy you dinner for a few of those tug boat stories Greg

We where there on the 6th through the 10th, and the fishing was tough. The last day it cooled off, and the water level was rising and the fishing picked up.

I would guess by now things have picked up.

We are headin back the first weekend in Nov., and will be fishing on the blood river. If any of you see a red Lund Pro Vee from Iowa stop and say high.

Hillman is on the LBL side. & Yep they'll be bite'n. You'll have to hide to bait the hook!:D

Thanks for all the help. Ashley and I did pretty well considering I have never been crappie fishing at KY Lake. Ashley caught two huge KY Lake Slabs each going over 2 lbs. She was super excited. She had never been crappie fishing before! I think I have crappie fishing partner now! Anyway, we caught them in Sledd Creek about 5ft deep on brush and stake beds. It was a great time and we can't wait to go back. It is a pretty good drive (3.75 Hrs) from Lexington but well worth it. I bet the fishing (numbers) are better in the spring. Below are a couple of pics from the trip.

Nice fish. If i lived only 3.75 hrs from that lake i'd fish it twice a month.:D It takes me 12 hrs to get there from Pa.
