    Default Water temperatures


    What is a good site to find lake temps? I have looked everywhere and can’t seem to find it.
    Also, what lakes are you guys finding crappie? I am planning to chase a few this week before the rain comes back

    Dayz ... I don't know of any sites that give water temps. The COE site I use only gives water temps/O2 levels once the thermocline is starting to show up, and even then the temps are taken at the dam. Their charts look like this : Temp Chart (click on the underlined T)

    Each lake has a phone # you can call. Go to KY Fish & Wildlife web page they will have the phone numbers listed for the lake u want to call.

    Yeah, John ... normally they will give you the water temp (taken at the dam), but I called the Taylorsville number before I posted my previous reply and no water temps were given.
    The Green River ph# says it's 45deg.

    I have an old newspaper clipping with ph#s for many of the state's lakes, so if Dayz wants me to I can post those numbers for whichever lakes he's interested in that I have the ph#s for ... but, some numbers may have changed over the decades I've had this list.

    I fished Green River Lake today, 3/10. Water temps were 45’ F when we started and were at 49’F when we finished at 6:15 pm.

    Yeah, I think Green & Taylorsville both have been in the low-mid 40's temp range for the last month or so ... dropping closer to 40deg when the snow/cold was here, then raising a few degrees when the air temps warmed up and the Sun shone on the dirty water of those lakes.

    I use the above site to find temps on corp lakes. It may work for you.
