Lyon County, KY and Barkley Lake

Monday, March 18, 2024

Kentucky and Barkley Lakes need no introduction for USA Bassin members. The fishing is outstanding and is part of the reason we have many tournaments there. One of the best places to take it all in is Lyon County.

Lyon County, located in Western Kentucky on the shores of Kentucky and Barkley Lakes. Still retains the old charm of a small rural farming community but with the impoundment of 2 lakes and the establishment of The Land Between The Lakes Recreational Area we have become a tourism, vacation and retirement community. Lyon County's permanent residents only number about 9,000 but residency can easily reach 50,000 during the summer months and holidays. Lyon County was formed in 1854, much of Lyon County lies within Land Between the Lakes.
