I was woundering if any one could give me some help on were to fish. I have been on kentucky lake one time and I was going to try and go in a couple of weeks. I thought maybe I could go catch some of those big slabs that I keep
seeing pictures of. Thanks
Hi Goodn,
What part of the lake do you usually fish? I spend most of my time in Blood River. They were doing good a few weeks ago but after the cold snap the second week I have been on the hunt for them myself. They should set up on regular winter spots in the next week. We just need some stable days with no cold fronts. I'll attach a good ones from November. One a little over 2 pounds and one a little under.
Old Guide
I have only been on the lake one time in the dark bass fishing. I would probley stay on the north end but still wouldn't have a clue where to go.
When you coming, The north end has alot of good fishing about anywhere you go..
I will be there in a couple of week's if the weather and my wife are permiting me to. (wife)lol lol!!!!

thank's i'll make sure I check that site before I come. If any one could give me some advice on where to start at. I would be very greatful thanks.
I've fished Ky Lake once a year for the last maybe 10 years and off and on for 10 years before that. I fish the nothern end now on the easten (LBL) side in mostly Pisgah, Smith and Duncan bays. We camp in Hillman Ferry Campgrounds and those bays are close to us. Off and on we fish across the lake in the area around Moors Marina and Resort. I've stayed at a place on the western side at Cypress Bay and I've stayed at Ken Lake State Park. There has also been a few places we stayed at that I can't remember the names of.Quote:

Why not start at Ken Lake State Park and go from there? Plenty of water with in reach of there or you're close enough to the the bridge that you can trailer over to LBL and try a few places over there if the mood strikes. Next time you go, maybe try some place farther south or Ky Dam State Park to the north.
What ever you do be careful and wear your life vest. Get a good map which are available everywhere and stay in the channels.
We go to Hillman Ferry Campgrounds cause we just like the place, not because we feel the fishing is better there than other sections. I always say i'm going to try some other sections of the lake but when I get there, we never do.
I've done as well fishing one section as the other. It's a great lake.
Thank's for the info on were to stay and put in at. When I go i will probably drive there and fish and drive back. As far as the map goes I have a colored lawrance gps unit on my boat. I have tried to find on the internet what the fish on kentucky lake hold on in the winter month's such as depth and structure. All I can find is you better higher a guide. I wouldn't even bother with going but I am way past ready to crappie fish a differnt lake and it is calling my name. My best chance of going is in the winter because in the spring I will be fishing in bass tournment's and hopefully will have sevaral turkery's to mount.thank's for the reply.
you might want to wait, I think all the boat ramps are froze right now.
