Barren River Lake
Fishing overall has been slow. Largemouth activity best on main lake and secondary points at night or early and late in the day. Crankbaits, Carolina, Texas & shakey-head worm rigs have been baits of choice. Some shallow activity available using topwaters and smaller cranks as some fish are up chasing small shad on flats in the creeks and coves.
Catfish being caught on jugs and trotlines on live or cut bait.
Hybrids fair at night and early & late trolling shad imitating soft plastics or crankbaits on lower ends of lake arms and at the dam.
Bluegill bite good early & late in day on crickets, grasshoppers, worms, wax worms or small plastic grubs
