How's the redear fishing down there? I've heard good things about it from a friend of mine. Can you expect to catch some hogs? I've never fished down there before and plan on tripping down there soon. My goal has always been to catch a 2lb redear and mount it, is Ky Lake a good spot to do that on?
I usually mount at least one 2 pound redear per season for my clients. Don't come down expecting to catch one but count it as gravy if you do. My biggest last season was 1-12 and it is mounted in my showroom. You won't see the huge fish like you would in SC or GA but the fishery is expanding every year.
They caught a 2.5 pound bluegill down around paris landing state park last year.
I beleive the picture was on Paris landing.com
There are some good fish down here, if you have a good spot marked on your GPS.:)
Caught one last year while crappie fishing with a small crank bait. It was 13 inches long. Not sure what it weighed but it fried up golden brown.
at reelfoot we bagged 432 one day and 35 were 15 to 15 1/2 inch. i have only found them in 1 watershed over there. never had a day like it again.
