Crappie&shrooms, I agree with Kyfishman. Somerset would be a good 'home' base for fishing with several other nice lakes within 2 hour drive or less. I do have a trip planned again for KY lake this spring. It may be my last based on what people I know live there tell me about the fishing since I was last there and what I run into during the trip, it may be fine, just don't know. Just don't want to deal with the a bunch of Carp and hope I don't have to. The KY/Barkley lake area is or has been great for fishing over the years, but this Carp thing may become a big problem. So, Somerset is a beautiful area. Spend most of my fishing there in or near Pitman Creek and did pretty good on Crappie years ago. Huge lake, very nice people in the area.
