Tick , tick, tick. Times ticking away. Almost time to rip some Kentucky Lake lips. Last 2 weeks are going to drag by. The shenanigans and mischief are going to be outrageous to say the least. I just don't want to be the first one to fall asleep in the camper. That's got bad idea written all over it.

If you have ever seen the movie "Waiting" you will know what I mean....

Dont mess with the people that prepare your food.  Kinda hard to focus on fishing when you spend your entire day looking for a toilet.

Ok Monty, i get the picture. Speedbead is a made man.

Batwing, Brains and the Goat?

LOL, yeah man!!!

I have my own sick skill set that was developed waaaaay before the movie ever came out.

Chalk that up to being young and drunk..... ;D

Am I the only one who has noticed there have been over 42,000 hits on this thread?  

Ronnie

I noticed but didn't think it was a big deal since I account for about 27,000 of them.

Wow!

That number may double when we get to the lake and post party pics!

Hey all just a heads up to the non boaters (or boaters) Who dont have extra PFD's. My buddy just bought new ones for his boat so i will be bringing 6 Extra Orrange ones if you need one or think you may want a few extra shoot me a Pm.

Supposed to get down to 20 degrees tonight, so im sure that morning boatride is going to be awesome.Kentucky trip is going to be flippin awesome. I hope some people catch some new PB.I dont care if somebody catches a bigger one than me, as long as it takes an 11 or 12 lber to do it.

It appears to me that the lakes are on their slow rise to summer pool!!!

Hey guys

Do y'all know where to get a Map for Lake Kentucky on paper? Doesn't have to be too fancy I'm just learning the navigation but would like to study what i can before leaving.

Any links would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

Maps will be provided for all attendees.  It's included as part of your registration fee.

Oh well thats AWSOME thanks BR !

Btech, navigation will be fairly simple. All channels are marked just watch out for the points at the mouths of some bays. Not all of them are marked. I'll be glad to go over maps with anybody there the first night. I will be happy to give advice or opinions to any who ask about locations.

Chris,

 What is Summer Pool?

Fluke ... summer pool is 359 .... we are currently at 355.6 and rising as of this afternoon. They are predicting 356 on Sunday.

Greg

Yup 359. If we get a couple good rains, she'll come right up! I would like to see it hit 360. That puts a lot of bushes in the water. Also, the yellow flowers are starting to come up and just at the right time. If we can get them in the water, look out man!!!

Love to fish the Mustard Flower.

Kelley

I hope it's 6 feet into the trees and bushes. ;D

So you are saying I might want to pack a spinnerbait or two?

Wow!

That number may double when we get to the lake and post party pics!

I sure hope their censored........

I'm sure most will be perfectly fine unless someone tries to sneak a shot or 2 of Long mike and RW doing their floor routines.

:shudders:

To the locals,  I'm really wanting to get into some smallmouth fishing when I'm down there, maybe more so then the LM.  In general, what type of lures am I going to need to pack?  I've gotten a general idea reading some stuff on-line on seasonal patterns on the lake.  

Seriously, the SM fishing potential is really getting me stoked as much as the LM fishing.  

cart7t .... I'd plan on fishing jigs, tubes,and creature baits on the east side of the lake ... maybe some cranks .... they're hitting jerkbaits right now but that will be over by the time you get here.
