Kentucky Lake

[Lunker777]

Hey everyone

 

I might have an oportunity to fish Kentucky lake in mid october

 

I have not got the slightest clue about that lake and I was curious to know if anyone has fished it before ??? Just curious what kind of structure I can expect ? what the best types of baits would be for that lake ?

 

Thanks !

I have never been there myself, my dad and brother were, but years ago. It is a very big lake, a lot of creek arm coves and deep, the shoreline can just drop away in areas. It is a TVA lake, Tennessee Valley Authority, a power and flood control lake, a dammed and flooded valley. Largemouth, Smallmouth, and spotted bass I think, also 1+ crappie are fairly common.

from what i read get a power generation schedule as the fish turn on when the water stats moving.

Also its famous for being a deep ledge fishery.

I used to do some business with a guy that fished Kentucky Lake and Dale Hollow, I bought small hair jigs off of him that he used for smallies.

 

Bass are bass, some times the approach to fishing for them is different, google floatnfly, shakey head worm, a couple of popular methods in that area. You do have to find fish to catch them though?
