    Default Cumberland...


    Ran a tank of gas out looking for fish on the dam end of Cumberland. Otter Creek. Indian Creek, Bever Creek, many coves, etc, etc.
    Didnt even find any gill beds on side scan. Lake was really high 78 deg water..

    Any idea where the crappie and gills might be in that lake? Did find a lot of really big returns in 30' to 40', probally stripers or cats. Saw a lot of gar in shallow water as well.
    Cumberland has always been a hard lake for me and I fish it alot

    It came up 6 feet in the last week. My buddy & his father in law caught them good Thursday in brush in the back of a creek.

    Struck out trolling for Walleye yesterday and got run off the lake by thunderstorms. Man was it hot! Cranking for Crappie today.

    Thanks for the advice. I don’t fish at night anymore but the daytime bite has been brutal.
