| Canola or Mustard? |
Spring time on Lake Barkley is absolutely beautiful at the lake house when all the blooms open up This happens for a couple of weeks every year and it is a marvelous sight to behold. I am still not really sure it the yellow is canola or wild mustard, it depends on who you ask. What I do know is that fishing guide Dave Stewart calls it wild mustard. When asked what color the bass will bite when the mustard is blooming.....everyone seems to have different responses from pink to watermelon to green but the truth of the matter is it depends on the fish on any given day. The bottom line for me is .....they are absolutely beautiful to behold so if the fish bite while they are blooming that is a bonus! Lots of advice has been posted on catching fish during the yellow flower period such as spinner baits worked through the plants, top water baits over them should they be submerged and charlie dip baits (Texas rigged)! But the truth of the matter is that spring time fishing at Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley will results in fish being caught and with a variety of bait and lures. So get a line and get a pole and make sure you get a license too.
