Lake
Elevation
: 355’ (Summer Pool =
359’)
Water Clarity: 4’ Visibility Green Stain
LARGEMOUTH BASS:
Tie a ½ oz blue/chrome rattletrap on one pole and a 3/8 oz
white/chartreuse spinner bait on another pole and you’re ready to
catch some bass. If you’ve got a couple extra poles, you may want to
tie on a 10” Junebug worm with a ¼ oz bullet weight and a topwater
walking bait or popper on another. Pretty good action can be found in
the back of bays 2’ to 5’, on shallow gravel bars and flats at
mouths of bays, and on mainlake points.
SMALLMOUTH BASS:
Catching some nice fish on mainlake points and deeper flats (5’ to
12’). Fish ½ oz spinner baits, rattletraps, spoons, and
Carolina
rigged “Creepy Crawlers”. Expect slower action overall, but very
memorable spurts of good action with the Smallmouth of a lifetime a real
possibility. (Check my website for recent photos).
OF INTEREST:
KLVLA is sponsoring the 5th Annual Kentucky Lake Fishing Derby, Sept
15th to Oct 29th. The cash prizes make it possible to come fishing for a
few days and pay for it with your winnings. Check it out at www.klvla.com/fishingderby/derby.htm
In the past week clients in my boat have checked in a 10oz Bluegill, a 13
½ Lb Flathead Catfish, a 1 Lb 12 oz Crappie, and a 4 Lb 11 oz
Smallmouth. If you’re not out there catching ‘em, you’re missing
out!
See ya in the water!
Capt Kirk, out!
