I would think the lake would be almost ice free from the warm weather and sunshine the past 3 days. The only remaining ice on the lake may be in areas that are completely shaded by bluffs or trees....

I would say it is because of the tough fishing and the lack of larger fish. I fished both of the fall tournaments out there; your club tourney and the IMTT tourney. In the 1st tourney 3 fish were...

pm sent. Please email pictures to matthew.h.gunkel@gmail.com if possible.

The water and weather seem to be cooling down. I talked to a few people around Shelbyville and had said the water temperatures had sunk below 80 last weekend, and with the forecasted weather and...

It is a shame that people keep these large fish....as they sure are few and far between in Kinkaid. I saw a few pictures of a 49" fish from last fall taken on a 1/4 oz. blade bait and 6lb test. The...

Anyone still fishing? Have all the guides wrapped it up and are beginning to get ready for the show season?

Nice job Larry... I am definetly going to have to put some time in trolling.
I had to head out to my boat at the marina and put some gas in the little tank so I fished from 3-4:30 this afternoon. ...

I was out with my roommate from 7am-4pm yesterday. I was praying that there were still a few fish shallow...so I decided to stick to casting all day...turned out to be a mistake. We threw...

Muskie-
The lake is well into turnover...maybe already done in fact. (The lake has cleared up quite a bit and the weeds near the top are brown and wispy...which is very typical of post...

As far as the clearing up....the main lake clarity is between 2-4 feet. There were a few bays that were protected from the strong winds Friday and Saturday that have better clarity than others that...

As far as the weekend....For me it was tough. Friday I fished with AFChris for about 3.5 hours and never saw a fish. We proceeded to throw some lines back and make a few trolling passes and I...

Chad-
I appreciate the heads up on the spinnerbait bite....IT SURE MADE MY SATURDAY AFTERNOON!!! A friend and I fished from 12:30-6 yesterday. For the first two hours I saw one on a Burt but it...

Thanks for the report Chad. I can definetly agree with short intense feeding windows and in between not even seeing a fish for hours. It has been like that all fall for me.

How has the fishing been?? Midterms and 8-10 hour days of fishing never mix well.... Has the lake raised significantly more with the rain??

I am no expert....and it is a little different on every lake. However, from my experience turnover results in a brief period of very dirty water followed by extreme clarity. However, this "extreme"...

NICE FISH!!! How many inches did it go? It looks to be around a 45"er?

Thanks Scott for the reply! That makes sense the upper part of the lake would be close to/experiencing turnover since it is so much shallower and dirtier...there probably is not a distinct...

Call over to Village Marina. They have some boat rentals, and I think 1 or 2 of the boats have trolling motors. If you have never fished the lake, or have limited knowledge of fishing here in...

Chad/Scott/Knowledgable Fisherman on Lake Kinkaid,
I was wondering at what temperature normally Kinkaid has turnover? Because of the clarity and depth I was thinking turnover would be low 50's or...

I am wondering the same thing.... Nothin on their website and I posted something on Muskylink and have not gotten a response...

Water temps were between 59.2-60 all day today. AFChris and I fished for 4 hours this afternoon in the rain....nada

AWH...SHHHHHHH Haha
That is where I saw them and was going to pick up a few....
