Me and my friend went to Ky lake today. The lake has dropped about 4 ft since our trip last week. We had a tough time finding any bluegill but the shellcrackers were still spawning on the bank. Ended up with 36 crackers and 5 or 6 bluegills, good trip!

We fished Jonathan Creek and the bays just to the north and south of it on the main lake.Quote:

We cleaned 26 redears and a cooler full of KY Lake bluegill this afternoon. We didn't see too many bluegill with eggs but the crackers still have them.
I can't seem to catch a fish in Blood River, but everyone else can. We are hitting coves off the main lake.Quote:

Spent most of the morning spider rigging for crappie, but they were pretty tough. Had 2 keepers caught in 15fow and released 6 short fish. Went into the bay across from Wildcat Creek and caught one nice redear and kept a few more bluegill for supper.
Nice looking fish. had to be a lot of fun.
