Kentucky Lake 4/3-4/6

[slabdaddy]

Well I was on vacation and my son was on spring break and we tried our luck on the big water.The lake came up 4 feet while we were down and the fishing was tougher than I like but we still caught a few.I think our total was 43 keepers for three days of fishing.Got there Thursday afternoon and fished Ledbetter for about 3 hrs,fished Blood River Friday,Saturday and Sunday till about 2:00 and headed back home.Most fish caught 15 to 22 foot but caught a few shallower on Saturday floating a hair jig under a bobber in about 10 ft of water.I found out that my 9 yr old loves to fish as much as I do. Even though the fishing and weather was less than desirable we both had a big time. I fish down ther quite a bit but think this has been one tough spring and am starting to wonder if the better fishing is still a couple of weeks off? Will try to post some pictures later today or tomorrow.

Slabdaddy, I know what you mean! I've fished Ky for years and it's the worst I've ever seen it! maybe it will get better!

Sir,
You may have not caught many fish but from the statement that you made I think you may have had one of the best fishing trip you will ever have.

Good looking fish being held by a happy young man. You made the right decision by going. The smile on his face is worth more than you can say!

Glad you had a good trip and I'm always happy to see someone taking a kid fishing! WAY TOO MANY dads out there that are worried about bragging to their buddies about how many fish they cleaned rather than how much fun they had w/ their kids. Also, for those of you that have moms and dads that are getting up there in age be sure to take them every chance you get.......you will be glad you did.
