Kentucky - Kentucky Lake
This gigantic, storied reservoir keeps on growing heavyweight largemouth bass and big crappies. For early-summer bass, drag a brown 3/4-ounce Booyah Football Jig dressed with a 4-inch green-pumpkin Yum Gonzo Grub over 12- to 18-foot-deep shell beds that drop into river channels. The dropoffs near Moors Resort at the mouth of Bear Creek always hold bass. Moors Resort & Marina, 800-626-5472; moorsresort.com
Guide's Tips
Species: Stripers
Guide: Don Schnuck; bigkahunafishingguideservice.com; 270-559-1366
Rig Specifics: Using a fairly large rod with 6-pound-test, fluorescent yellow line, tie on a 1/4-ounce inline spinner, a size 3 rooster tail or a Mepps.
Quick Tip: The best time to fish is from daylight to about 10 a.m. The weather should be hot, and there should be a little bit of a current in the lake.
Where to Fish: There is a nice drop-off near where the main river channel empties into the lake.
