    Possibly, but there are less than a handful of docks on all of KY Lake that sit in 17fow.

    Most of the docks on KY Lake now also have no structure that lend themselves to classic dock shooting. As storms tear the old docks up, they are replaced with units that are floating on plastic float perimeters and attached at the bank.

    I agree, that the new floating docks don't hold half as many crappie as the older docks that have rusty old poles running to the bottom, but if you throw a pontoon boat in the mix or something to that nature, it will still hold good fish, and in regard to 17 fow docks, I do frequent a few banks near the Tennesse line that have the right set up, and I don't have to fish 17 fow, but they are good to target after a front, but there are alot of docks in 15, 10, 5, etc., and I don't discriminate . I also have some marinas I like to target too, that hold alot of fish, sometimes, I can get some really nice crappies at night under the light of the marinas, and usually, I never see another boat during those night excursions, and of course, if you have a portable Vexilar you just walk down the dock until you mark a fish and drop a jig down and see if it's a taker (if you have premission to walk on the marina dock).

    Default Better than last year

    I too will be Going to Ky. Lake this next week. at least the water levels are more stable! I am hoping to beat High Tides 3.8 Lb crappie from last year. The fish is still swimming out in cypress somewhere. I am hoping to make the run to Big Sandy on one of the weekdays.

    The wind on Kentucky is the worst I have ever endured. By far, the "SCARIEST" lake I have ever been on!!! That could be the game changer for this weekend.

    We do that just for the tourists.

    Once they all leave, we turn it off and it's smooth as glass. :D

    Was crossing the main lake to my place at Johnathan creek after running jugs one night when a storm came out of the south. In minutes waves were coming over the top rail. I had my Bassett hound with me and he crawled under the console and was howling. I saw the storm coming but it was too fast. Now I keep a weather scanner with me. I thought I was a goner. Rosco was a little skeptical about going out at night with me for a while. He's fine now.
    I think the mistake a lot of us make is thinking the state-appointed shrink is our friend.
