Ky Lake vs Green River

Ok looking for a little help if anyone would be so kind. The wife and I have been going to Ky lake every year for the last 10-12 years. Stayed predominately around the Big Bear area. But also stayed at Cypress Bay on the KY/TN line as well as Paris Landing and Springville in TN. Been to Reelfoot lake also. We think we have our hearts set on retiring and moving to the KY lake area somewhere between Benton KY to Paris Landing area. HOWEVER we would like to test the waters at a couple other lakes before deciding. I have about 3 more years before I retire. We were thinking about making a visit to Green River lake or Barren River lake. We mainly fish for crappie, but close second is bluegill, white bass, yellow bass. Of those 2 lakes which would you recommend? I really think I like what I read about Green River. I am certain it is hard to beat Ky lake but I just would like to try a couple different areas before I commit. We are choosing an area in close proximity to a lake. I want to retire and live out my days fishing. Nowhere close to a big city.
Also on my thinking list was Nolin lake, Rough River lake, Dale Hollow lake and Old Hickory lake. Please share your thoughts, good and bad, on any of these lakes.
Thanks in advance for any info you share.

In my opinion your focus should be more about the house as opposed to which lake, make sure it has lots of guests bedrooms or even a studio above the garage so you can invite all your crappie.com family over! ?*??

Gotta think about access to quality health care when you pick a place to retire. We bought our retirement home on KY lake 25 minutes east of Murray, KY and 50 minutes south of Paducah. Lakes like Dale Hollow are pretty far from a decent sized town. The TN portion of KY lake is pretty remote well except for Paris.

All that being said, the crappie and bass fishing on KY lake is not so good lately due to the Asian carp invasion, hoping for better days ahead.

Barren is my local lake so I can chime in on that one. I have also visited KY Lake yearly for about the last 25 yrs.
Barren has great crappie, bluegill and some awesome hybrid fishing. It is a flood resevoir so dealing with major depth fluctuations sucks.
Real Estate wise the prices are great at Barren but steadily climbing. Glasgow and Bowling Green are both 30 mins or less from Barren so anything you could ever need is a short drive away.
Feel free to ask any questions you may have about this area.

If you can make it to the Spring Fling on May 4th, you'd get a good idea of what fishing at Green is like.

Campbellsville and Columbia are the closest large cities, and they ain't all that big either. If you chose Campbellsville, you'd be just North of the lake and closer to the wider area of the lake. If you chose Columbia, you'd be South of the lake and closer to the river end of it. Also Columbia is between Green & Cumberland ... and Cumberland Crappie are more in line with KY Lake size fish.

While I agree that the house & location should be top priority, at either of these two lakes you won't have the Asian Carp problem to deal with, like you would at KY/Barkley. Can't help you on the other lakes mentioned.

Green is a very good lake for crappie! Nice area to.

Well I can see that our priorities are out of balance with yours. LOL. However, I would put a hide-a-bed in the garage or basement for you, so you could crash after a hard day of fishing or after I have a fish fry. :biggrin

Yes I agree that crappie fishing has declined over the years that I have been going down there. And I assure you it sure as heck isn't from me over harvesting. LOL. I do good to get a limit. And I have seen a HUGE increase in the Asian carp. But I think, hope everything will cycle back in. We won't be getting a place right on a lake. Out of my budget. We just want a small house or trailer within an 30 to45 minute drive. Nuttin fancy for us.
Thanks for the feed back.

Thank you for the reply. We are not 100% certain where we are going to land but we are 90% certain of it being KY/TN area. But we just want to be somewhere close to some fishing and out of this cold. I know you get some snow, ice and cold in KY/TN but nothing like northern IL. I may pick your brain a little more about Barren. We are going to schedule a few days to a week to try a couple different lakes this year. I was leaning towards Green but Barren looks good too.
Again thanks.
Oh I see you are a Marine. THANK YOU!!!!!!!
I have a grandson at San Diego right now going through boot camp.

Yes I was thinking the same thing. I have a pretty flexible schedule and can usually get away whenever I need. Green is definitively a lake I want to check out. We are not bass fisherman. Mainly panfish, and we also like to catfish. We just like to fish. My wife and I spent our honeymoon on Bullshoals Lake many many years ago. She likes fishing as much (probably more) than I do. All of our vacations and trips pretty much evolve around fishing.
We are not looking for a fancy house or a big house. We want a small house or a trailer. We don't want to spend our time cleaning and maintaining a large house. We are not fancy people.
I looked at a couple of the resorts at Green. What can you tell me about the one with the floating cabins? And I assume the one where the fling is happening is good?
Thanks for the feedback. This is the kind of info I am looking for.

Thanks for the feedback. Greatly appreciated.
Any recommendations for a guide on Green for a day?

The site of the Spring Fling is Holmes Bend Marina Resort : Holmes Bend Marina Resort - Houseboating on Green River Lake in Kentucky Houseboats (> river end of the lake)
The "floating cabins" are at Green River Marina : Floating Cabins – Green River Marina (> dam end of lake)

Green River Lake is a good lake for "numbers" of keeper Crappie (9" @ 20/day/person) ... and also has Muskie (2 species), Walleye, White Bass, and the regular catfish & panfish population.

There are two Crappie guides that I know of at Green : t.slabseeker (Tim Marple) & KyTeacher (David Jones)

You can get a good idea of the layout of the lake, facilities on & around the lake, and surrounding towns by going on Google Maps or Google Earth .... the lake is located in South Central KY.

There are two very good hospitals in the area : Taylor Regional Hosp. in Campbellsville & Ephraim Mcdowell Regional Med Center in Danville (about 40mi NE of Campbellsville) .... or there's Lake Cumberland Regional Hosp. in Somerset (about 45mi East of Columbia).

Thanks so much for the info. BUT GOSH DARN IT, quit talking about Dr's and Hospitals!!!!. You are going to make me sick. Old and sick!!!! LOL.
I was looking on line at both of those resorts. Both looked nice. I just know sometimes online advertising can be DECEPTIVE.
I really appreciate all the feedback from everyone.

Not meaning to jinx you, just reassure you that they're available & close. :ThumbsUp

(I worked at the UK Med Center Hospital for 45yrs and never had any illnesses or injuries that warranted me becoming a patient .... then retired almost 6yrs ago & ended up being a patient twice, a little over 1yr after retiring. Stuff happens, and I just didn't want you to come into this "move" unprepared.)

As far as the resorts/marinas .... I've stayed quite a few times at Holmes Bend, and I've camped at the State Campground (long ago), but I haven't stayed in the floating cabins.

And just a FYI .... if you intend to stay in a cabin/suite room for the Fling, there is a two night minimum on weekends (& the smallest cabin is a 2br). Now, the Kamper Kabins are basically 1rm sleeping quarters only, but there is no minimum stay requirement on them. There is also a campground just up the road from Holmes Bend Marina, but it is not affiliated with the marina. The COE owns the launch ramp at Holmes Bend & there's a $5 launch fee. But, you can get a Annual Pass for $40 & launch free at all of the COE launch sites. Or simply use the other launch sites on Green, that do not charge a launch fee (like the one at the State Campground).

Oh, and not that it would matter much to a retiree, but the lake is somewhat divided by two counties ... and those two counties are in different time zones. Just another FYI that I mention to people coming to the Fling, because some phone clocks will change their time when you cross the time zone line ... and "could" cause one to come in from fishing early or late.
The Campbellsville (dam & main lake area) end of the lake is in Taylor County & on Eastern Standard Time ... the Columbia (river/Holmes Bend area) end of the lake is in Adair County & on Central Standard Time. The time zone line basically divides the lake in half ... crossing the lake around Butler Creek (about halfway between the dam & Holmes Bend Marina).

Tim and KyTeacher are both excellent guides and fun to fish with I'd say. I always see them in the parking lot with fish at Holmes Bend. That's favorite end of the lake.

One thing to think about
at ky lake if they don’t get a handle on the carp problem I’m willing to bet they are going to see a pretty good drop in property value. That could work for you or against you depending on your circumstance

After five years of living in Eastern Kentucky because of my job, I recently retired. My wife and I all along had planned to move back to Western Kentucky where we used to live. I know Kentucky and Barkley lakes very well having fished them most of my adult life. But, honestly, after assessing the Asian Carp problem and talking with many friends who live and fish there on those lakes about it, we decided to remain in the Somerset, KY area. From where I live on Lake Cumberland, I can easily fish Lake Cumberland, Dale Hollow, Green River and Cedar Creek Lakes. With 5 years of fishing here on these lakes, I have grown to love all of them. Green River is great for numbers of fish, Cumberland offers quality crappie that rival Kentucky and Barkley Lakes, and Dale Hollow holds some of the biggest crappie you'll find anywhere, not to mention some of the largest bluegill and Redear and powerful Smallmouth Bass. In addition, Dale Hollow one of the cleanest lakes I've seen. Crappie fishing on Cedar Creek Lake is hit and miss for me, but then I don't go there as often as I do these other three lakes. Another plus for me is the trout fishing in the Cumberland River below Wolf Creek Dam. Somerset is a nice, growing town of about 14,000 people and offers just about everything we need. Plus Lexington is not far away. So we love it here and have decided to put down our roots and stay here, unless God has other plans for us.

Thank you for the info. This is the kind of information I want. Dale hollow sounds interesting. Now I have more research to do.
Thank you

Crappie&shrooms, I agree with Kyfishman. Somerset would be a good 'home' base for fishing with several other nice lakes within 2 hour drive or less. I do have a trip planned again for KY lake this spring. It may be my last based on what people I know live there tell me about the fishing since I was last there and what I run into during the trip, it may be fine, just don't know. Just don't want to deal with the a bunch of Carp and hope I don't have to. The KY/Barkley lake area is or has been great for fishing over the years, but this Carp thing may become a big problem. So, Somerset is a beautiful area. Spend most of my fishing there in or near Pitman Creek and did pretty good on Crappie years ago. Huge lake, very nice people in the area.

Ky lake will disappoint you.

None of us want to face the affects of aging. I've worked in a VA for 19 years. During that time I've seen the changes of aging on thousands of veterans. Since I was 48 when I started I've seen the changes in myself. While the search for a retirement location always centers on the choice of house and a location that meets your recreation needs and your finances only a foolish person does not consider the quality and accessibility of healthcare. A few years ago my son in law and I were driving around KY Lake near the Moors. Saw a few nice places for sale and knowing what I had learned it occurred to me that if you had a heart attack or major medical emergency in that area you weren't going to make it to the ER alive. The winding roads, lack of immediate EMT care and distance to the nearest hospital all contributed to that thought. So pick a place you'll love to live but make sure if and when one of you needs it you can get the care that will let you enjoy that retirement longer. Goid luck to you.

We been coming to KY lake every year and sometimes twice a year for10-12 years now. I know what you are saying but I have yet to be disappointed. But it sure has been frustrating. But it has become a bigger challenge the last couple years. We always managed to find and catch some fish. If we are on the water, we're happy. Nothing more relaxing than floating around the lake. My biggest disappointment was last year in Oct. We were at Cypress Bay. Some dirt bag decided he needed my HDS9, ram mount and St Croix rod more than I did. They hit several boats on the dock that night.
But I honestly appreciate your input. I want all the info anyone is willing to share.

Thank for the advice. We are keeping that in mind. We been shopping and looking at places for a couple years now. We make a list of places from realtor.com, then drive down and look around. We steer away from the too remote ones. I will say one thing. Whom ever takes some of the pictures for these real estate companies are a magician. The house or trailer looks nothing like it does in the pictures. LOL
I see you are from Carterville. I was born and raised not too far from you. I lived in the Anna, Cobden, Alto Pass area. Spent a lot of time in Southern IL.

We're looking at a move to coastal SC within the next year. Have been going there for 12-14 years. I know what you mean. Have looked at several houses that aren't quite,as pictured. Have lived here for19 years. Originally from the Lafayette IN area but lived in Murray MY for 3 years in the early 90s.

That was Murray KY. I hate autocorrect.

I grew up in Calvert City by KY Lake, then lived in Louisville KY for 13 years and fished all the lakes you've mentioned on weekend getaways from Louisville, I'm now back home living south of Benton 20 minutes from the lake. I believe Dale Hollow is one of the prettiest of all the ones mentioned, with Cumberland a close second. Barren reminds me a lot of a mini-KY Lake.

I just feel like it's very tough to beat KY Lake, especially the north end where you have easy access to two HUGE lakes side-by-side, wonderful recreational activities in Land Between the Lakes, and easy access to so many other places via I-24 and I-69. I believe your money goes farther in the more remote areas like Hamlin KY, but with so many great little small towns with great little mom-and-pop restaurants and stores I would have a hard time giving those up to be out in the middle of nowhere (like Hamlin).

Lots of folks are writing off KY Lake due to carp, I wouldn't let that influence your decision. It's only a matter of time before the carp are in the other lakes too. It's not the first "big scare" and certainly won't be the last, nature adapts and things have a way of working out; I remember a time when zebra mussels were supposedly going to be the death of KY Lake, that was 30 years ago and those zebra mussels are still in there.

As a fellow Illinoisan have you ever fished Lake of Egypt, Newton or any of the powerplant lakes in southern Illinois? these lakes provide year round crappie fishing and warm water on the coldest winter days. between the power plants lakes, Rend, Kincaid and others within a short drive its tough to beat for crappie. I fish KY lake often as well but the last few years size and numbers of crappie coming out of the lakes i mentioned above have been heads and shoulders above KY lake, besides it being in the Chicago controlled cesspool of Illinois. Living in these areas is cost wise comparable to the Ky lake area, also KY lake is only a hour and some change drive away.

in my opinion Rend, kincaid & LOE are a better crappie fishery today than KY lake is. the diversity in scenery of those lakes is also a nice change, from the muddy Rend clay to clear rocky kincaid and then the power plant lakes it is truly crappie heaven. (no asian carp either!)

With the sizes of crappie these lakes have been putting out i no longer make trips to Mississippi and less and less to KY lake each year. when your catching 2 lbers around here year round why drive to do the same?

I grew up around the Nolin/rough river area. I currently live on Rough River Lake. They are both nice lakes. I do prefer fishing on Nolin but the fishing on rough is decent as well. The cost of living in this area is not bad and housing prices are good. I would recommend a visit. We are close to Elizabethtown and Leitchfield is growing. I do recommend Nolin over Rough because Rough gets heavier traffic in the summer and seems to settle better after heavy rains.

Thank you for the info. I have fished Shelbyville several times, really like it. Rend once, And many years ago I fished Lake of Egypt. I used to live in Southern IL. Down around the Cobden area. Fished Little Grassy, Devils, Crab Orchard, and a few ithers quite a bit. All these lake have some quality fish. Only problem is they are still in ILLINOIS. My goal is to get out of IL ASAP. They tax us to death. On the properties we have been looking at in KY and TN the taxes are less for a year as what I pay a month in IL.
Again thanks for your feedback.

Thank you very much for your feedback. We are researching and looking over several of these lakes. We honestly been researching for a couple years, but as we are getting closer we are kinda kicking it up a notch in looking.
Thanks

To all that has been replying to this post a very sincere THANK YOU. We greatly appreciate it. I am hoping 2-3 years and I will retire.
We are hoping to make it to the Spring Fling on Green but not certain yet. We have been to a couple of the shindigs at Ky Lake over the last few years. Great time, great food. It would be nice to meet some you. And to go :fish FISHING. We are so sick and tired of the snow. Right now it would take a caterpillar to get my boat out of the barn I have it stored in. And they are calling for more snow 5 out of the next 9 days. :mad:
