There is actually a custom type map available here, I might be up for splitting some of the costs.

bamabassman · 05-06-09, 06:14 PM

jb, i think i have around 6 lawn folding chairs that are EXTRAS. yep found em all,lol. rewebbed em and have a couple to do still. i'll bring the 6 plus my BAMA chair, hahahahahaha. how's that pal? we have a turkey fryer we will use for the fish fry. i don't know WHAT all we are bringing,lmao, but we will most likely have a alot of stuff. we will leave thursday morning. hope to get there and fish a little that evening. kinda scan things out so to speak. make little notes and possibly hinder a couple of rigs (boobie trap), so we can have an advantage, hahahahahaha. ya'll KNOW that i am KIDDING! i ain't do nothing to anyones rig, except look at what is tied on yer rods. it's like zooker said, i NEED all the help i can get, hahahahahaha.

and kevin, the map mb told you about is AWESUM man.

oh yea jb, i will tell lisa to look at this and tell ya'll what she will be using for the fish breading,but i know that if someone wants something else for theirs, she'll do it to their taste. just for a note on this, the cajun breading is totaly fantastic, lemon pepper is too. had both of these. and i ain't one for anything too spicey or hot. and you hit it on the head about the other stuff too jb. it'll work out though and this is GONNA BE THE GREATEST EVENT EVER!! ok,ok,ok......... i'll calm down,lol.

zooker · 05-06-09, 06:17 PM

i'll have a bottle of hot sauce -alway tote one-ifin ya like it spicy..

zooker

JB · 05-06-09, 06:40 PM

zooker i expect one night we will have a metal fest with denny you n me LOL

Kevin · 05-06-09, 06:46 PM

Hey guys... would it be easier if I was to create a separate thread where the only thing we are to talk about is whose bringing what?

Also, for those of you who have boated on Kentucky Lake, are there many obstructions that you need to worry about? Any real risks out there for losing a lower unit, or is it wide open?

JB · 05-06-09, 06:57 PM

Good question Kevin.

Once you leave the marina to head out to the main lake, you'll see an island on the right with water between it and the mainland...it looks deep but Do Not run through it, its foot or two at best, and you'll see a idiot of two run through it.
The other real low spot is right in the middle of the ky lake itself in front of big bear and kinda towards smiths cove on the other side if you look at the map.
Then as you get across the middle area its deep again and deep on the other side thats all natural, no houses etc.
Zooker and I have compared notes from the map and its well marked where barge lanes are and other traffic areas.
Most of the other areas are easy to navigate, I'd encourage all to explore around Moors resort and coves around it, good fish holding areas and a little dif scenery than big bear and Malcom creek

Kevin · 05-06-09, 07:03 PM

Thanks for the heads up JB. I'll be sure to make some notes of those areas. It's always tough to get a gauge for how well the local authorities mark hazards and obstructions. Here in MD, especially in the rivers, the marking of horrendous and potentially disastrous hazards is near non-existent.

sounds like most of the lakes in virginia..

woody · 05-06-09, 07:15 PM

Okay Everybody, I hope you all like baked beans, because I'm planning on making enough to feed an army for supper Thur. Fri. and Sat. nights. I will bring it hot and ready to eat; one less thing all You Cooks to have to mess with. You all can thank me later when the wind starts blowing! LOL

Kevin that would make it allot easier to keep track of, thanks.

~Mark

JB · 05-06-09, 07:25 PM

Last time woody n me were at brookville lake all the bouy markers and boundry signs had blown to the back of the coves or too the dam, the water rose about six feet and I guess the wind took them for a ride.

carolina-rig-01 · 05-07-09, 01:28 AM

i have both ky lake maps so if anyone decides to run south they can borrow my ky lake south map. also ups just brought my navionics east chip so i will be able to read the lake on the fly instead of trying to read a map while running down the lake.

woody · 05-07-09, 10:33 AM

I know BPS stocks those Fishing Hot Spots Maps too, you might check there.

In case any of you have decided to head down(over or up) early, I noticed that Big Bear is offering 20% discounted rates during the weekdays on new reservations. I may be headed down a couple days earlier than I had originally planned, maybe arriving Tuesday instead of Thursday. I'm gonna call down there and see what's still available and will let everyone know for sure of my plans.

If there are any early takers let me know so that we can get together and do some fishin.

~Mark

bamabassman · 05-07-09, 09:03 PM

hey gang, one thing we will for SURE need to know. WHAT IS THE WEATHER PREDICTION! rain, snow (lol), winds? all this will be needed to us right?

BigBassin144 · 05-07-09, 09:05 PM

Yeah, that's probably be a good thing to watch. I can check weather on my phone, so it'll help while we're down there.

BB

JB · 05-07-09, 09:15 PM

wind is your enemy on the lake thats for sure, you can still hang in big bear if its real bad but its tempting to hit the other coves on the lake that are good, like Jonathan creek

Each condo or cabin has cable and it has the weather channel on it

bamabassman · 05-07-09, 09:16 PM

thanks jb, but what are the readings as of now? forcast?

MississippiBoy · 05-07-09, 09:32 PM

Weather report earlier today said 60% chance of rain for the Friday and Saturday we're there. Now, it says 0% chance Friday, 30% Saturday. It's till way too early to tell.

BigBassin144 · 05-07-09, 10:15 PM

Yeah, I hardly trust forcasts for tomarrow, let alone a week from now.

BB

WTL · 05-07-09, 11:08 PM

If it gets too terribly windy, I will lead the convoy of trucks to the put in below the dam. There are plenty of ways to find water when its windy.

Rain/storms would suck though, my tent is missing the solid canopy part. It just has mesh on top.

Oh yeah, and the way you guys are planning the food...it would be amazing if yall found any time to fish. I am gonna eat almost nothing.
