If you happen to go, please report back about your trip !!

Anybody ever fish at Boonsboro Kentucky River or next to Halls on the river? If anyone could please help me find a good crappie hole I'd buy them lunch : )

please email me at [email protected] and let me know where I can fish for crappies at Kentucky river, Im in Clark County Winchester,KY.

I fish at boonesborough a bit I have never caught a crappie there however I have just recently started going on the other side of the river where I hear the bite is quite a bit better. I'll let you know how it goes as soon as I get out there again.

I fish the river alot I fish below lock 7,8,and 9 in jessamine been catching some good crappie there.

Hey CP, I assume you are in a boat on the river right? FYI- you may already this but I did find a place that sells minnows all year round called BackWater Baits on in Lexington on New Circle Road. We should get together and go..... But Im think Im gonna do like you said and wait til the first of April and go over with some minnows.

WOW that a great looking mess of fish!!!! I hope I can catch some like you. I feel so dumb asking questions but as my my said you'll never know til you ask. I have learned so much and I thank the good Lord that I can go fishing and talk to people like you ll on here. I still dont understand about the locks, like what "LOCK" is at the beach and dam there at the park?

That is lock #10 at the beach and they go down in # as you move down river.All the way to the Ohio.We caught those fish in about a hour.
