KY Lake 3-9-2007

Featured Replies

Water visibility about 2'.  Water temp about 50 degrees.  Light South wind.

Fish suspended between 4 and 6 feet in 7-14 feet of water 5-30 feet from ledge.

Only got in 2 hours of fishing today because of my classes, but I went with some buddies off the shoreline.  Caught 11 largemouth, 2 smallmouth, 1 drum, and 1 15lb smallmouth buffalo.  The 2 biggest largemouth were 5 1/2lbs. and 6lbs.  The biggest smallmouth was 3 1/2lbs.  7 of the bass would've weighed in at tournaments, so it was a pretty decent outing.

Productive lures:  Jerkbaits- Smithwick Suspending Rogues in blue/chrome, Rapala Suspending Husky Jerks in black/chrome, and Rapala X-Raps in black/silver, olive, and goby.  These fish didn't want anything else it seemed like.

If you've got any questions, just ask.

Oh, and I know everyone wants pictures for the posts in order to support the hype.  I'll add them to this and my other KY Lake posts soon.  We've been using disposable cameras to get our shots, and we only take pictures of the big ones.   So, as soon as they're filled up, which shouldn't be more than 2 or 3 weeks, then I'll put them up here.  Remember, patience is a virtue.   'Til then, good luck out on the lake!

Thanks good to know. I will be headed down that way in a few weeks.

Just curious if you tried any pointers or did they only want the jerkbaits you were throwing.

I have a buddy who throws Pointers and Megabass jerkbaits and he won the co-angler division of the BFL here on KY Lake this weekend with them.  He got 19 1/2 lbs.  4 smallmouths and 1 spot.  The big smallmouths were 6 1/2 lbs. and 5 1/2 lbs.  The spot only weighed 1 lb.  That leaves 18 1/2 lbs. to the smallies.  So I'd say without a doubt that the pointers are working.

The megabass ito 110 is a great bait.  there are times when it will outfish anything including the similar rattlin rogue.

as far as the pointer goes.  probably the best suspending jerk bait ever.

I think for sheer numbers the pointer 78 is a must have.
