I am taking my daughter on a crappie fishing trip this year for over Spring Break. Had a trip to Ky Lake planned but this polar vortex has me concerned that its gonna mess things up. Date is March 28th for our trip. We do have the option to head South to Sardis Lake in MS and hook up with a guide there and fish and visit relatives. Weather down there has been much better. Looking for some input for you more experienced folks as Im wanting her to have as good an experience as possible!! Thank ya
Weiss is looking good so far....
Head South!
I'm in the exact same boat. Planning first trip to KY lake last week in March for 3 days with my son who will be on spring break and my Dad. Don't think we have time to go as far as MS so we might just cancel if things don't improve.
Ive been to KY Lake a few times and I LOVE the lake and the area but this weather is crazy. We will be on Spring Break too and would have the time and the free lodging would be the bonus in MS, could either go to Sardis or Grenada both supposed to be great lakes but I do Love KY lake this cold weather may just be a trip killer. I have a guide booked, looking to possibly change the dates to come back for redear later?? Head south for the Crappie??
spring camp at nadar last weekend of march
I love KY lake also but If I had free lodging around Grenada or Sardis I think I would head South. I've never been down there been wanting to go for a few years but haven't made it down there yet.
Grenada is where I would go. By then they will be on fire! Home of the 3lb slabs!
No way I would cancel a trip to Ky Lake. Bad fishing there is like good fishing most other places.Quote:

Guys, thank you so much for the input here!! Im still leaning twoards KY Lake its 8 hours down to MS and even though we may those may be great lakes, I just love coming down to KY Lake. I just wish I had the chance to come down more!! Really hoping the weather works out for us and I can pull my horse trailer down, stay at Wranglers for the week plus do some crappie fishing! What a Spring Break that would be!! Kids may have fun too!!!!
Now wait a minute! You've got free lodging and will be fishing Sardis and Granada? I think I would GO SOUTH this time!
Yes sir I do have free lodging down there and a guide ready to take us as well. It looks like we may have to especially since I have the whole week off now. Thinking that far South would be hitting them pretty right tool, so Im told from the MS forums. Either way it seems that its a pretty good spot to be in. Was really wanting to drag the horses down to Wranglers for the week and fish some too though
I think I would go to MS. I'm really stressed about this. I'm wondering if we should go to Sardis also but I know nothing about it. I just saw that after this brief warmup it's suppose to be cold again until at least March 21 around here and I think this go pretty far south also.
I think we have decided to go MS. Probly gonna go to KY Lake around Derby time bring the horses stay at Wranglers and do some fishing riding etc. Weather should be much nicer and stable then, maybe get some bluegills or redear
I love Kentucky lake fishing. Some of the best in the world. But if I had free lodging & a guide. I'd be all over that MS trip.
The extended forecast on Accuweather looks like things might be finally starting to stabilize and warm up. I know that change at the drop of the hat, but hopefully we are heading in the right direction.Quote:
