I'd say Big Sandy at Kentucky Lake is producing a ton of crappie right know from the report I got today. 4 guys fished out of 2 boats Sat. and Sun. and both boats had limits in half a day both times. That is 240 crappie between 4guys in only 10 or so hours fishing!

Same guys fished Blood looking for bigger fish Monday or Tues. (not sure which day) and between the 2 boats they only managed to catch 17 keepers between them in almost a full day fishing and they know Blood a lot better than Big Sandy! Unfortunately I fish Blood since that is where my cabin is at, but have never been to Big Sandy, but may have to take a trip that direction myself. If I was making your drive to Kentucky Lake I would be headed to Big Sandy based on this report! I have no idea what the deal is w/ Big Sandy, but they always seem like they catch more fish down there when the water temps are below 50.

Good luck.......
