Looking for any insight on who is a reputable guide on kentucky lake, for bass. I live within 2 hrs of the North end of the kentucky lake and have always wanted to fish it. But don't wanna go in blind. Thanks in advance. 

This won't necessarily help you, but would hate to see you fall into the same trap I did.  About 5 years ago I hired Kick'n Bass Guide Service for a guided bass trip on KY Lake.  At the time the (then) owner had a Ranger that he used for bass only, but also had a pontoon boat guided by another gentleman for larger groups and mainly crappie and white/yellow bass.  I called him to book a trip and explained I had three fisherman and we wanted to fish for bass. I was told he only took 2 customers max in the Ranger but he could book us on the pontoon. I reminded him we wanted to fish for bass and he said "Oh yeah, he'll be able to put you guys on bass".

 

Fast forward to the trip.  As we are idling out of the marina the pontoon guide says "I don't normally fish for bass. The owner gave me a couple waypoints to try but if we don't catch any bass we may need to fish for white/yellow bass instead".  Sure enough, after an unsuccessful hour we switched to white/yellow bass for the rest of the trip.  It was fun but not what we paid for or expected.

 

I'm pretty sure there are a couple KY Lake guides that only guide for bass, I would suggest hiring one of them.

 

 

Dave Stewart guides on the north end,  or at least used to. We went out with him years ago and did decent despite a huge cold front that moved in the night before. I'd check with him but I go down there with a group on the last weekend in April every year and do pretty good most years.

 

I seen a lot of guides that "specialize" in a lot of different species. Definitely don't wanna do that. Thanks for the replies guys
