They're calling for 6-8 more inches out here in the far west of the state. Along with the water that's already in the Tennessee and Cumberland River systems, KY and Barkley should be high and muddy for a while.

Yep, everything that come into Cumberland ends up in Barkley
With that amount of rain in w.Ky means Cumberland has to hold water until other lakes begin to Drop
CUMBERLAND is still risig 1/2 in per hour
Cumberland has stabilized! Just in time for tomorrow's rain
Green is 6.5ft over Summer Pool
Taylorsville is 7.5ft over Summer Pool
Cave Run is 10ft over Summer Pool
And it's 78deg in Lexington ... and the Garter Snakes are crawling everywhere. :yikes And it's still FEBRUARY !!
And more rain coming!
Flood gates opened on Cumberland, hopefully they can get it down to summer pool
I went to Fishing Creek yesterday. Water had cleared up some, water temp went from 55-57 while I was there. Caught 14, kept 7 for supper. Ranged from 10.5 to 12.5". Male--female was 50-50. Don't know how the rain last night and today will impact fishing creek. I saw this morning where they had opened the gates. Hope to get back out tomorrow and/or Monday.
Taylorsville Lake ... currently 23ft over Summer Pool & rising :bash

I've only been fishing 3 times since fall and it's killing me. I was contemplating on heading down to cumberland tomorrow or Tuesday but wasn't sure how the fish would be biting. I know the water level is very high but I've never fished it at that level. Any insight on the clarity of the water and where one might begin the search?
