Lake Barkley KY Bait Shops

Like its sister lake, Lake Barkley is a crappie and bass hotspot, and the local bait shops are stocked for it. Pick up live bait such as minnows and shad, plus jigs, rods, and tackle for crappie, largemouth and smallmouth bass, sauger, catfish, and bluegill. On big water like this, the shops' local knowledge of productive bays and ledges is worth the stop. Grab your license, load up on bait, and get the latest report before you launch.
