Thread: Reduced limits on KY and Barkley Lakes

I agree. I would be willing to help however. I want the fishing to be great for my kids one day also. I just think the economic impact could be huge. Someone, somewhere will care in the state government. Look how much advertising they have done to promote Lake Cumberland since having to do dam repair. They know how much it can hurt the economy. Down on Weiss Lake they have a Lake Weiss Improvement Association and they sell $5 permits for prizes on tagged fish. Guides early in the year go out and catch up 1000 fish and tag them. Local bait houses and marina's sell the permits and set up prizes. Just like Crappie USA does but on a local level. I know I always buy mine on Weiss Lake and I know all my friends and I would buy one on Kentucky Lake. There are enough local fisherman and guides to get the fish tagged. The business down there will donate because they need to keep improving the lake. They use the money down south to continue helping with crappie condo's and lake improvements. We could do the same or just use it for stocking programs. What do you think?
