Fish treetops back in coves or back in the creeks that have a little color is better. Throw a small jig of some kind or the float and fly will work too. Keep the boat off the bank and make long...

Crappie are biting on Barren fairly decent. I have been there 3 times in a little over a week and am averaging about 16 a trip in about 5-6 hours a trip. Crappie seem to be in a little deeper water,...

Fished about 4.5 hours today and ended up with 16 keepers. Caught a lot of smaller ones that I threw back. Lake is still several feet over summer pool. Water temp was 54 degree's where I was at. All...

Fished 11-11-10 and caught fish pretty much from the same brushpiles where they have been all fall. Caught fish anywhere from 7-15ft. deep on minnows.

Be sure and hit all the tree tops you can, close to the channel bluffs. I think you will find crappie will be shallower up in the creeks and in the main lake area and towards the dam, you will start...

Are you catching mostly white crappie now? I was catching mostly black crappie a month ago on Barren shallow, around 3 feet deep, now catching a lot more white crappie and very few black ones. I...

Try any brushpiles on flats in Peters Creek at that time. I have had some good catches of fish(post spawn) on flats, in late April and early May They were shallow too. Caught fish with minnow and...

Guys, I seldom get to fish the great Ky. Lake, and this may not be the problem there, but I do believe that a lake can turnover in the spring. About the same thing happened to me on Barren a few...

If you go back to Barren in the next few days and the weather don't change, try throwing a jig and bobber(set about 3 feet deep) around any visible cover that is close to deep water. I caught a few...

Whiskers is right you want the tiny shad or the nail tail. They don't stay on the hook is well as most tubes, but you can put a dab of crazy glue at the top where it meets the jighead. They really...

Barren is right at or close to Winter pool for this year. Corp's lake level report is 270-646-2122. Have not had the boat out this year at Barren (usually on Dale) but am planning on going Friday. I...

I can't help you on crappie fishing Lake Cumberland, but the float n fly is a great way to catch crappie. This was really the first way I learned to catch crappie. I had so much fun and enjoyed it so...

What are the longest lengths that those fly rods come in from Bass pro shops? I need one myself, but like one 10ft anyways.

Thanks

Friday, didn't get on the water untill about 10am. Cold front was coming in and really windy to. Caught a good mess of fish, but had a lot of small keepers. The big blacks just was not biting for us...

Went a couple of weeks ago. Crappie were biting at that time fairly shallow. We caught a few deep, but that day the bite was better a little more shallow11-13ft. deep. All fish were caught on...

Caught 10 nice crappie fishing brushpiles in about 14-16ft. of water. Most fish were suspended right above brush in about 13ft. of water. All fish came on minnows. I did try a roadrunner, float and...

Crappie are starting to bite at night on minnows slow trolled or tightlined around channel bluffs, not really relating to wood right now, or the ones I am catching are not. They are suspended and...

I have not been all year untill last weekend and we caught a few at night on minnows. We were just drifting down channel bluffs and in the channel. Crappie were really deep. I have caught several...

Hey fellows, what exactly is the Hydrografix you guys are talking about? I assume its some type of program for the computer or gps with spots that you can download. I have only fished Ky. lake once...

I work on the lake and as of Saturday the lake around the waterplant was not muddy. As a matter of fact it was just as clear as it has been. Down at the Narrows and most of the Skaggs Creek and...

Crappie were decent on Barren several weeks ago. I usually go once a week but been catching up on some work. Probably will go Wednesday of this week. Fish 2-3 weeks ago were caught in water depths...

I fish Dale a lot in late fall and winter for smallies. That time of year might be a good time to use live bait for smallmouths. Sometimes you can pick up live shad at the state dock, I have. I am...

Bad Brad,

Crappie are not bad on Barren. The bigger crappies are not biting real well but still managing to get several smaller ones. Most are averaging around 9.5-10. Look for crappies to be...
