Ky Fly Fishing Gathering How about it?

Dear FTF Member,
Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock
Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will

I know we have folks on this board form all over the world. It'd be impossible for some to get to Ky, but we are thinking(fellows on the Creek Bank) about getting something together for the Cumberland River in June some times.
Would like to ask some folks with good trout experience to attend. We don't have a lot of experience for fishing these waters for trout, but it hold some good ones.
This location also is in the area for some remote forest streams as well.
Just looking for feed back, nothing's definte yet...

The only problem with Cland can be the generation schedules. If we get a lot of rain and the lake is full, they won't hesitate to open them up and pull the lake.

That's a common "problem" associated with ANY tailwater fishing. And a risk most of us take anytime we head for one of those rivers. How are the "remote forest streams" affected by this generation?

What part of Kentucky are you talking in particular? I would consider it and I know a few guys here that wouldn't mind a trip over that way.

Generation is not a factor n these mountain streams. Now the critters maybe.

Location is Southern Ky around the Corbin, SOmerset, Jamestown, and Monticello areas.

What is your location in ref to Virginia? I live in the tip end of Va. About 1.5 hours from KY. I would love to find a new tailwater. I don't know much about KY so fill me in.

I live in Ky and have been thinking about trying the Cumberland and could probably make any dates you set. Haven't fished it before but i have fished several streams in the area before. Beautiful country in them parts.

Fellows,
It's definitely going to be in June. We're thinking about camping at Conley Bottom on Lake Cumberland. That would put folks close to the Wolf Creek Dam and the Big South Fork above the Cumberland falls as well.

Will post some more info soon.
