Lady Bass Anglers Set to Fish in Kentucky Lake Tournament

The Lady Bass Anglers Association will bring the third stop on the 2015 tournament season to  Kentucky Lake. Kentucky Lake is the mainstream reservior of the Tennessee river. The dam backs up about 160,000 acres of water making it the largest of the Tennessee Valley Authority reservoirs  The companion body of water is Lake Barkley which impounds 118 miles of the Cumberland river. These two bodies of water are connected by a channel near the dams of each reservior. Both bodies of water will provide the LBAA  anglers with plenty of opportunities to bring in bigs sacks of fish each day.
