Kentucky Lake can definitely ruin ya if you get on 'em. I've had a couple trips down there and hit cold, windy, rainy weather out of nowhere that seem worse than anywhere I've been, except maybe a tournament on Grand Lake St.Marys, but I'd rather not relive that one. We use to go to Barkely and/or Kentucky every year at least once, but decided to try some new scenery. Circumstances kept me from making the trip last year, but they loved Weiss. Hopefully we hit 'em just right. If not, a weekend away from reality will do me some good anyway.....Good luck.
