I have only been fishing Cave Run for a couple of years and it never fails to continually frustrate me! I have had marginal luck fishing the lake up the river as well as Leatherwood. To me, it seems like the fish hold deep all year (10-15 ft) and never come up. Minnows and popeyes seem to work equal. I have not been able to find a predominate color.

Alot the old-timers saw that the musky population has taken a toll on crappie numbers???? Others have told me that it is not a very fertile lake for crappie and the numbers are low. But, I kind of question that because I have caught some nice fish from the lake.

My question is this: For those of you that fish on a regular basis, am I patterning the fish correctly or, am I misisng something?
