Sportsmans Lodge
Sportsman’s Lodge
I stayed at sportsmans lodge during the fall shindig and really enjoyed it. I hope to go back this year
5 mi down the rd is Fin N Feathers, it's not a resort or camoground just a nice little motel with outside pavilion with grill.
Ken Lake State Park, Hickory Hill,

I also stayed at Sportsman Lodge for the fall shindig in a cabin. The staff was really accommodating, it was nice also to have the marina with covered slip rentals, really nice fish cleaning setup on the dock. Cabin was nothing fancy but slept well. They have campsites at Sportsmans also but i did not get to see them. There is a really large campground just north of Sportsman Lodge on the opposite side of the bay, couldn't tell you the name of it but looks nice.
Lake side campground
I stay there at least 3 or 4 long weekends every year, super convenient, clean rooms, helpful staff.... but if you want to stay there you better be calling them in the very near future. Theyl book up fast...
Ok, I have booked a trip to Sportsmans lodge and am thinking about hiring a guide for 1/2 day to get me kick started. Any suggestions? I am also trying to decide what style of fishing I want to try. My boat will be ready for spider rig, pulling cranks or long lining. I am going to be there from 25 through the 29 of April. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you ahead of time.

recommend you reach out to mrdux. Doug is a guide there.
I think you may be a bit late on the guide hiring deal .... and you can forget about hiring mrdux as your guide from Apr 27-29, because he will be at the Spring Fling April 27-29 (and I think I've seen where he posted that he was booked solid for April in a previous thread). But, you can always check the Guide Listing thread (sticky at top of page) for contact info to him or other guides on Ky Lake, just in case one of them can get you in.
I stayed there about that time last year. Some of the locals that stay there were more than helpful. So you may still be ok if you can't find a guide.
I’ll be ok. I am rigging my boat for spider rigging and it might be the first time I get to try it out. Millennium side kick seats in front with two 18 inch driftmaster Tbars that have 4 rod holders each and 2 of the same Tbar setups in back. Helix9 mega si/di with gps and hd transducer mounted on bowducer assembly hanging in front. I can’t wait!!!!

I am wondering what will be the best technique for that time of year. Do you all have any suggestions?
