Written by Jason White    We decided to go for more fillets last night. It was unclear if the bite was falling off yet or not, but we had the opportunity to see. An advanced call to Snow Hill Grocery got us a pizza in the oven and confirmed plenty of shiners in their tank. We grabbed grub, some beverages, shiners and hit the ramp.

I haven't been after the crappie in a week. My fishing buddy has been a few times since and has done pretty well, so we loaded up and fished last night. We fished from about 730pm to midnight. The bite was slower than two nights before when he'd last gone, but steady enough to keep us out there.

Written by Steve McCadams    WARM UP WELCOMED BY SHIVERING  ANGLERS…CRAPPIE SPAWN UNDERWAY

    Thanks to an overdue warming  trend the bass and crappie bite really improved this week on Kentucky Lake. Anglers were beginning to think  cold temps and bone chilling winds would never go away but sunshine and light  winds finally arrived.
    It has been an unusual  spring. This week is a prime example as it began with a warm day and  thunderstorms only to see another cold front with brisk north winds slip in the  door at midweek. Now it appears warm days and light winds will dominate as the  weekend approaches.

Written by Steve McCadams    STUBBORN SPRING KEEPS ANGLERS OFF  BALANCE…BETTER DAYS IN THE FORECAST

    Kentucky Lake anglers have battled above  average water levels and below average temperatures this week. Both the fish and  fishermen have been confused.
     Warm and sunny or cold  and windy? Take your pick as everything from snow flurries to sunburns have been  part of this week’s fishing scene.
    Crappie have been thrown off  as have the bass. Both have been scattered this week. Some flirted with shallow  areas while others were taken here, there and everywhere. It’s fair to say fish  have been roaming.
    After a few days of brutal  winds and below average temperatures it appears moderate weather will return as  the crappie spawn returns to more active phases. Last week the fish were  beginning to move up fast but the uninvited cold front really put the brakes on  the spawn, delaying it by at least a week.
