The fall fishing season is in
full swing. The striper fishing has been super good all fall. We are br>catching fish on alewife herring from 28 to 80 feet with the 70 to 80 feet being
most predictable. The fish are still on the main lake but they will start
coming in the creeks as soon as the watwer cools a little more. The water temp
is about 75 and clear. The bass fishing has been tough for the most part but
should improve shortly. They will start schooling of points early and late or
during low light conditions. The walleye fishing has slowed from the summer
fishing. We have caught a couple of them down 70 feet but I do not think many
are that deep. The crappie fishing has been improving with good fish being
caught in the creeks fished 8 to 20 feet clos eto cover. The leaves are
starting to change so come on down to the lake to enjoy a great fall day on the
water.

Lake Cumberland fishing report for Aug 18th, 2008.   The surface
temp is in the low 80's and the water is clear.   The fishing has
been great for several species.  The walleye fishing has been good
on the main lake points fishing 20 to 35 feet deep.   Jigging spoons
and trolling have both been productive.  The stripers have also been
very good.   The are in good sized schools on the main lake and the
mouth of the major creeks.   We have been doing best about 35
feet.   We have been using alewife herring for bait.   Lots of
people are also catching them on shiners.   The catfish have been
biting good fished 15 to 25 feet deep.  The fishing this fall should
be excellent just like all year has been.  Come down to the lake and
enjoy our great resource.
