Just watched something on KYAfield where they fished the Cumberland and the guide from Cumberland City Drifters said since the Dam has been completed fisheries stocked triploid rainbows.
Those fish should grow BIG up there in a couple years.
In case you wonder what a triploid trout is... basically a fish that don't spawn and just eats all the time not losing body mass during spawn process.
They have been in there since 2011 and have stocked more each year since then. browntrout and I are going to hit it next year. The word we have is that since the dam has been repaired it could rival...or be as good as....the White River. That would be something.....time will tell.
