Hiring a guide down there could be a trip saver. Try Richard Williams or just look up others on the internet. October can be a fine time for crappie and you can usually catch some bluegill around brushpiles then too. The guide will have a pretty good idea where the fish will be.
Personally, if I were going to KY Lake & fishing in the Paris Landing area .... I'd post on the Tenn forum, plus I'd exchange PM's with "Cane Pole" for a couple of weeks prior and get the latest scoop on what was happening from him.
If you're talking about going NEXT Mon-Wed ... PM Wiskers, mrdux, BIGBADDAD, ifish, or one of the other "local" members, and see what they have to say.
... cp :cool:
I went out last Monday & had 18 crappie (all Blacks but 1) & several good Yella Belly Stripes! Those little suckers are some fine eating!
I started early & caught fish from 10' to 14'. Surprisingly I was catching them on the ledges in the mouth of the bay starting out. Starting snooping around & caught fish half way back in the bay despite 80 degree water. Can't remember 1 brush pile I didn't cat fish on. Caught a ton of short fish. They were mostly whites.
I was fishing the Bobby Garland Baby Shad in Monkey Milk & Sunrise, on a 1/8 oz Chartreuse head.
Most of the fish were in the 11" range with 2 about 12". I was a little disappointed in the condition of the fish. They weren't fat like we're used to seeing'um around here. The looked poor to me.
That's the best I can do for ya. Good luck!
thank you for all your help will post if we make it and i think richard william s fishing poles are great and russ says he is really good like his shows alot.
Just got off the water at birdsong. Caught 1 fish all day. People who have Matts marked on gps are catching fish. Hire a guide! Crappie Fishing is slow!
looks like i ll stay in ohio tell oct but thanks to all
It is tough as nails right now. Drowned minnows today for about a dozen stripes......time to hit the beach! This yankee is lovin the hot!!!!
