We're heading down to Buchanan Resort in April and I was wanting to know if my Ky license would be all I need, or do I need a Tenn. license also ? I know the line is the bridge, but I had someone tell me that your Ky. would work as long as you stayed in the river channel ? I think I'll get a Tn license anyway, they're alot cheaper than a ticket.
That's not how I read a few years ago. You want to look at the TWRA.org website. If I remeber correctly you had to put in within whatever state your license was good for. You could go past the state line but for only so far. Hope that helps a little.
Page 15 of 2012-2013 KY fishing and boating guide. You can fish with a KY license, the lake and all embayments to the Hwy 79(Paris,TN) bridge. Past that you will need a TN non-resident License.
If you put in within KY right?Quote:

The guys are right. Staying at Buchanon you will need a Tennessee non-resident. I usually get one just so I don't have to worry. It is too tempting once I get down around the 79 bridge to slide into Big Sandy.:fish

Just kiddin Goldeneye. You will be in a prime spot!:fish
The first time I got to spider rig was in the Big Sandy area. I bit my lip when my brother in law and his buddy took me, but stopped in Paris("you need to get your TN non-resident license"), after the third 14inch slab I just smiled and enjoyed the day as the extra cost was worth it all. Enjoy your trip, just be ready for a lot of people in April. Go get um Goldeneye.Quote:
