    Barkley debris

    With them raising the water levels to summer pool, does anybody know if there's alot of floating logs and such on Barkley right now? Me and a buddy are going fishing Friday and he's wanting to go to Barkley, but I'd rather go to KY if Barkley has alot of floaters. I've torn too much stuff up on my boat in the past to chance it anymore.

    A friend here at work fished there yesterday. He said there was a whole lot of debris. He also said he did a lot better fishing on Ky Lake Monday. He lives over around Dover.

    I was out there this afternoon and yes, there is debris. Most of it is small, but with those South winds, the lake was really churned up. In fact, the lake was 3-4 degree cooler than yesterday.

    Thanks for the info. I think we'll definitely go to KY. Like I said, I've dinged my boat up too many times in the spring on Barkley when the water rises.
