| Â | Latest News Kentucky and Barkley Lakes – Bring the Family and Make It a Vacation Saturday, February 28, 2009
I was sitting around today doing a little research about Kentucky and Barkley Lakes and I realized that there will be many new teams at the Classic this year, who have never been exposed to this fishery. This articles will show excerpts from the web, found through Google, to get anglers and their families more acquainted with this world class fishery. Enjoy! 1. Explore Kentucky Lake.com: Dave Stewart's Fishing Report: Both lakes are about one and one half feet over winter pool. The forecast for today and thru the weekend is for high north quadrant winds to begin after a frontal passage later this morning. A chance of rain/snow is in the forecast for Saturday. A warming trend is in the forecast for next week so let's hope the weather guessers are right and we will be getting some more favorable conditions for fishing than what they are forecasting for this weekend. The early prespawn patterns for Bass and Crappie continue to dominate the fishing scene on days that the wind and weather will let you venture onto the lake. Lake Barkley is heavily stained and Ky Lake is stained. To read more go to: http://www.explorekentuckylake.com/lakesarea/fishing/reports.htm 2.

Paris Landing.com: Both bluegill and bass are on the bed as Kentucky Lake surface temps rebound after a few days of Dogwood Winter or was it Blackberry Winter? Whatever label you choose it was downright cool. Anglers had another week of strange spring weather that once again altered fishing conditions but it appears warm days have returned and remain in the forecast. A cold front slipped in the door earlier this week and according to the National Weather Service set a record low Monday night in some areas with the mercury dipping to 32 degrees. By Wednesday temps rebounded to 70 degrees courtesy of gale south winds that whipped the lake with whitecaps. Surface temps dropped a few degrees early this week but jump backed to the 67 to 71 degree range by midweek, which sent bluegill, redear, and bass back to the bedding phase.

5. Kentucky Lake.com: The lowermost impoundment of the Tennessee chain, Kentucky Lake is the home of Lunker large mouth, spots and the highly regarded small mouth. Known, for years, as the "Crappie Capital" of the world, two pounders are not uncommon. Other fish such as catfish, bluegill, red ear, stripers and sauger gives you a mixed bag of excellent fishing. One of the largest man-made lakes in the U.S., Kentucky Lake starts at the dam and travels south to Pickwick Lake Dam, some 180 miles and 2400 miles of shoreline from head to tail water.
