I rode down to New Johnsonville today and the grass is all gone, which is odd because I was here last October for a media event and it was matted out. They did have some high water and rain over the winter so maybe that killed it, but I didn’t see a blade of grass all day.
I’ve had a couple Top-5s out of Barkley, but the section I’ve fished in the past is off limits because of the All-American, so that’s out the window. It looks like I’ll just be fishing Kentucky Lake this week. It’s a big body of water and it takes more than a day to find ‘em. I had two keepers all day and I didn’t see many on the graph either out deep. I know they’re there, I just have to find them.
The water temperature is in the mid to upper 70s, which is kind of cool for June and that’s another reason why I think things have been a little behind.
