    I mainly fish with live bait but will use a tube from time to time. Probably fish 75% live bait 25% artificial. I have been real successful with a hot pink tube with silver speckles on a black 1/32 oz. jig head on the north fork area around Poppin' Rock. Think I got 'em from Bass Pro Shop. Of course the old stand by chart. works well too. The tubes with silver or gold sparkles seem to work well regardless of color. I've wanted to try to use more artificial for crappie but just seem to gravitate back to minnows when the bite gets slow. Now that the 4th madness is over I need to try to get on the water soon. Five day forecast looks like Thursday would be a good day. Good luck, and maybe I'll see you on the water someday.

    Thumbs up Hey Hammer ...

    I haven't been to Barkley in many, many years ... but, when I did go there - it was usually thru the last week in April. By that time the Crappie were usually already in the buckbrush and shallow stump beds in the coves and creeks. I would tent camp at the COE campgrounds next to the Canal ... just up the road from Grand Rivers, Ky. I'm sure there are many more places to eat and bed down now ... than there were then. I fished the coves and pockets from Barkley Dam to the prison ... but, only those that had buckbrush or stumps. A large minnow under a float, about 18 inches deep, dropped in and around stumps ... brush piles ... or into the openings of the buckbushes, would usually produce the larger fish. And, yes ... 2lb fish were quite common.
    I don't know if that much has changed at Barkley, over the years, but you can always post your question on the main board ... someone who fishes there now, will surely answer. Also check thru your search engine of choice, and find some sites with updated fishing reports. ....luck2ya ......cp

    Thumbs up Welcome aboard Crappie1 ...

    Thanks for joining our little family, Jeff. Hope you enjoy yourself, here.

    I see by your lake listings, that you fish Watts Bar. Take a look at the Main Message board, and check out the "Spring Fling" post (top of the forum). It may be something you'd like to get involved in. Don't hesitate to ask me anything about the tournaments ... take care and keep in touch ...cp

    Thanks crappiepappy.

    This is a great site. It's about time we have a place we can share tips and tricks and learn more about this awesome fish.
    I would love to join in on the Spring Fling. I have never fished in a crappie tourney before. Sounds like alot of fun but I have had a trip to Lake Guntersville AL planned for that weekend. Fishin' for trash fish(Bass) with some of bass fishin' buddies.
    I'm also a member of BassBoatCentral. There's alot of good boat information there as well.

    Keep up the good work.
    Jeff

    We fish taylorsville, nolin, green, and sometimes cumberland (usually for stripers though). Fished barren a few times but I'll be moving to bowling green soon and fishing barren a lot more. I'll try to keep ya'll posted on how fishing is going for me. We just came back from a terrible trip to cumberland saturday, too much wind and too little knowledge of the lake.

    Fished 10 different states for crappie over the past 7 years. Joined "Team Keelshield" pro staff 2 years ago. My favorite lake has to be the Harris Chain.
