Bass
Fishing Report; Kentucky and Barkley Lakes; Oct. 19, 2006
Both
lakes are at or slightly above winter pool. Overall the fishing is
still slow for this time of year. The bass fishing is still on and
off with cold fronts moving through the lakes area every 24 to 48 hours.
The bite is scattered just like the fish. You can have some good
days if you are on the right spot at the right time but it has been more
hit and miss than being able to run a steady pattern. There are
fish shallow and fish deep with some fish in between. The best
reports have been on the Crappie fishing but even these fish are
scattered from deep to shallow and anglers are having to move here and
there to find some fish. Hopefully these cold fronts will slow
down and the weather will stabilize for a while and settle the fish down
into a good fall feeding pattern. The creeks and bays are full of
baitfish just waiting on the predators to come in and feed up. Largemouth
Bass: The Largemouth Bass are being taken from the mouths of the
creeks and bays to the shallow flats. The deeper fish are being
taken on the main lake points, lead in creek channel banks and secondary
points on Smallmouth
Bass: The Smallmouth Bass are being taken on main lake points and
first secondary points in the creeks and bays with some fish being taken
on shallow main lake humps. These fish are taking crankbaits,
spinnerbaits, tube jigs and jigs. Like the Largemouth the
Smallmouth fishing has been slow. A few Smallmouth are being taken
shallow in the bays feeding on schools of baitfish but I have
not found any feeding schools of Smallmouth as of yet. The shallow
fish are taking lipless crankbaits and spinnerbaits. Some
of the productive lures reported this week are: Lucky Craft
G-splash in ghost lemon pearl, Rebel Pop R in black/chrome, Lucky
Craft Pointer in blue ayu, Rapala X-rap in black/silver, Bandit
crankbaits in rootbeer and rootbeer/chartruese, Hook Some Bass
spinnerbaits in blue glimmer, Lewis Rattletraps in blue/chrome, S&S
lipless crankbaits in threadfin shad and Hook Some Bass jigs in green
pumpkin. The
best of the fall fishing is yet to come. If you are in need of a
guide for some fun bass fishing, tournament preparation, lake
familiarization or technique instruction don't hesitate to give me a
call or drop me and email. I have the following dates open: October:
30 November:
I have plenty of dates open in November...give me a call or drop me
an email.
