Which lake are you at?
We are spending a few days on the lake this week. So I thought I'd check in and see what everyone is experiencing.
Wednesday afternoon winds made things pretty tough. Fished where I could not where I wanted to. Late in the day the winds died a little and finally found some fish in about 15 foot deep water.
Yesterday we spent the majority of the day on the water. The weather was about as good as we could ask for. Fishing was ok but we didn't catch the numbers we would have hoped for. Spent most of the day in two coves fishing 12-25 foot. Tried deeper and tried shallower but that where we caught the most fish. Kept about a dozen 12 inch crappie.
That's what we've experienced. Would like to have a few more fish but it was great to get out. Let me know what you're seeing out there.

Should have read a little closer. Thought you where at a lake in nothern KY. Sorry
I’ll be there tomorrow afternoon. I’m heading down lake to some of the bays that way. Gonna fish deep brush. Got twenty colors picked out to get started. One or two of them will produce better than the rest. Just got to find which ones they are.

I would imagine there are still a lot of fish hanging out on main and secondary channel ledge brush piles. And the main creek channels closer to the mouths,maybe some on flats just adjacent to the creek and river channels.
It always use to aggravate the heck out of me when I was ready to fish in a bay shallow and those blame fish just kept hanging on out in the wind and wake.
I would plan vacations thinking I was late enough and nope...a few fish in but majority still out. Long time ago before the lakes aged so much the fish use to come in earlier and go further back in the creeks and bays. A lot would come in on just feeding sprees before they were even thinking about bedding.
I remember when a lot of people would go in early March and catch them just bobber and cork and casting jigs way back in. They did not spider rig or troll or longline. Heck...my wife's Grandma use to come with her boys over for trips and catch quite a few and all she had was a cane pole.
Late enough now any day may bring in a big batch. But I have seen them hangup out even up into April. Flood control lakes fish funny sometimes compared to natural or non flood control impoundments.
