Fishing From The Banks
Fishing from the banks of Kentucky Lake and the Tennessee River is a common practice around here. It doesn't require any special equipment - just a fishing pole and a lure or some bait. It can be very relaxing ~ or exciting!
This photo was taken on the Saturday of the Sealy Outdoor / McDonald Big Bass Splash. I was standing on one of the piers and called across the water, "Are you catching anything?" and the young man told me he was trying to catch "monster" fish. I hope he did.
We have miles and miles of banks from which you can fish. Come play with us!
