Lake Fishing Report: Taylorsville Lake, KY (March 6, 2025)

1. Current Conditions & Key Factors

  • Water Temperature: 53Ā°F, with minimal ice cover (0-1 inches).
  • Max Depth: 21.336 ft, with most fish activity in shallower areas.
  • Weather: Partly cloudy, 32Ā°F to 44Ā°F, with high winds (28 mph).
  • Lunar Phase: Waxing crescent, moderate solunar activity.

Fish are moving into pre-spawn areas, concentrating in warmer coves and bays.

2. Top Species to Target

  1. White Crappie & Black Crappie: Active in pre-spawn shallows.
  2. Largemouth Bass: Moving into coves; less aggressive due to cold.
  3. Bluegill & Redear Sunfish: Schooling in warmer areas.

3. Best Locations & Depths

  • Bays & Coves: Focus on areas with submerged structures (e.g., logs, rocks) at 8-12 ft depths.
  • Channels Leading to Bays: Fish staged here for pre-spawn movement.
  • Lee Sides of the Lake: Avoid strong winds; fish seek calmer waters.

4. Lures & Techniques

  • Crappie:
    • 1/16 oz. white or chartreuse jigs (e.g., curly tail grub) suspended 6-8 ft deep.
    • Small minnows under a bobber near structure.
  • Bass:
    • Slow-moving finesse worms (e.g., green pumpkin) or suspended jerkbaits.
    • Target near submerged wood or rocky drop-offs.

5. Weather-Driven Strategy

  • Today (March 6): Focus on crappie in lee areas during midday (10 AM - 3 PM).
  • Next 3 Days (March 7-10): Warmer temps (60s) will activate pre-spawn bass and crappie. Fish bays and coves during early morning (6-10 AM) and late evening (5-8 PM).
  • March 13-14: Cold front and rain may slow action; switch to deeper drop-offs (12-15 ft) with slower presentations.

6. Hotspots & Lake-Specific Tips

  • Chicken Creek Area: Productive for crappie near brush piles.
  • Mid-Lake Humps: Check for schooling bass and crappie suspended at 10-12 ft.
  • ** creed Ledges:** Focus on drop-offs near flats where bass stage pre-spawn.

7. Time-of-Day Plan

  • Morning (6-10 AM): Target bass in deeper drop-offs with jerkbaits or finesse worms.
  • Midday (10 AM - 3 PM): Fish crappie in bays using jigs or minnows near submerged structure.
  • Evening (4-7 PM): Return to bass in shallower coves as water cools.

8. Pro Tips

  • Use ultra-slow presentations due to cold water.
  • Downsize lures and baits for more bites.
  • Focus on areas with baitfish activity, as predators follow the school.

9. Regulations

Check local KY fishing regulations for bag limits and size restrictions.

  • Crappie: 15" minimum length, 10 limit per angler.
  • Bass: 15" minimum length, 6 limit per angler.
  • Bluegill & Redear Sunfish: No minimum length, 15 limit per angler.

Good luck on the water!
