Cave Run Lake fishing report — KDFWR — Aug. 27
August 27, 2009 by admin · Comments Off
Lake level: 730.10
Lake temperature: 78 degrees F
The main lake remains murky and the water level is stable at 1-inch above summer pool. Water temperatures range from 78 degrees at the surface to 74.5 degrees at 25 feet. Dissolved oxygen levels are good down to 16 feet. Muskie fishing has slowed greatly this week. As fall approaches and the water cools some, try crappie fishing up theLicking River or in North Fork Creek. While up in this area you will find plenty of offshore structure along with channel drop offs to concentrate your fishing efforts. Please be careful in these areas as there are lots of submerged tree stumps just below water level. The best way to access these areas are from either Bangor or Poppin Rock boat ramps. Several ramps located around the lake require a fee in order to park or launch a boat so please check with the United States Forest Service prior to launching. Largemouth bass are still being caught on plastics near weed beds in the late evening or during the night. As water temperatures begin to cool, it won’t be too long before largemouth start hitting top water lures.
