Kentucky Lake In October

[ozarkgunner]

I'm thinking about taking a week long trip first week of October. Anyone ever been there? How is the bass fishing? Crappie? Thanks in advance!

Several times, great lake, love it. Stayed both in KY. & TN. & strongly suggest you stay / fish in TN.

KY. has some good fishing, in my opinion better for crappie than bass. I have always done better in TN. & it has plenty of both species + more & bigger smallmouth. If you stay in KY. you will be closer to & can swing on over to BARKLEY which is a very good lake for both also. But, KY. side is much shallower overall, can be difficult to find deeper water & more difficult ( DANGEROUS IN MANY AREAS ) to navigate.

Where is a nice place to stay?

I like Pickwick in the fall, farther up river above Kentucky Lake in the bottom of TN. Nice bass feeding up for winter are pretty fat in Oct. I am planning one of them trips myself.
