WINTER FISHING SCENE MEDIOCRE FOR MOST
Winter crappie anglers got a few nice days the last week or so when mild
temps and light winds allowed them to venture out to main lake areas.
There were a few windy days too when chilly conditions interrupted the
fishing scene but sandwiched between some inclimate weather were
opportunities.

Crappie anglers are still struggling for the most part in their quest to
find consistent catches of keeper fish. However, there have been a few
decent stringers reported lately by lucky anglers who managed to find
and catch some of the illusive panfish.

Depths of 12 to 13 feet gave up a few fish for anglers targeting big
bays on the east side of the reservoir lately. Most of the fish seemed
to reside in such places as they dodged the current that has been in
existence for several weeks.
The overall early winter crappie fishing scene has been inconsistent for
the bulk of anglers. An occasional success story filters in by a lucky
boat or two who found a few fish one day. If they return the next day
hoping to duplicate their success it seems the fish are not there.

TVA has been pulling water all week but projected the reservoir would be
down to its low ebb of winter pool by this weekend. Elevation on
Christmas Day was around 354.9 at Kentucky Dam. That’s down about a foot
from a week ago at this time.

Water color has been relatively clear across the reservoir. Surface
temperatures have been in the 45 to 46 degree range.
After a few mild days the forecast appears to be turning cooler by this
weekend as some nasty north winds are expected to descend and chill the
overall scene.
Looks like winter weather will hang around well into next week, kicking
off a cold start to the New Year. Temps are forecast to climb only into
the mid 40’s and dropping down at night below the freezing mark.
