Thanks, guys!
jad2t,
I fish from a 17' aluminum bass boat. I'm not sure which section of the Cumberland you'd be putting in at but on days like today, there was very little current and that's the way I like it; I can position my boat close to the shore and drift downstream ever so slowly at a rate where I can make several casts to one spot. I don't think it would have been bad in a kayak at all, unless you let yourself drift about 5 miles downstream and then had to paddle all the way back
