Episode 31: Molley and Chad return to the Dock Crawl at State Dock Marina on Lake Cumberland, for the second year in a row.  This episode will feature interviews and comments from friends and new friends who came out to enjoy a wonderful tradition. In a previous episode, you met Donzi Dale and Sandy.  They have a houseboat on the lake and invited Molley and Chad to use their boat as a home base during the event.  A special shout out to Mandy and Travis to introducing them to the Dock Crawl in 2022.  Their friend Kelly Smith was the interviewer during the 2023 event.  She did a terrific job. Recon Duty with Mr. Barry Truth be told, Barry Sinclair is from a different row on the dock (Row 200), but was doing some recon to see how things were shaping up and what the competition looked like this year.  Kelly, Molley and Chad welcomed him to the microphone to get his take on the event. Barry started coming down to State Dock on Lake Cumberland in 1977.  They started by staying in the cottages and then bought a houseboat about 22 years ago.  They originally kept it at Jamestown, but decided to move to State Dock roughly 11 years ago.  He drives down from Cincinnati, OH every weekend. In addition to the houseboat, he has a dual console runabout he keeps in a slip.  Barry's son also has a boat in a nearby slip.  Barry's youngest son was 2 weeks old when he had his first lake experience.  It's safe to say he grew up on the water.  Molley mentions both of their children grew up around the water.  Now they're in the 20s.  Barry used to be into watersports, but as he's gotten older is more about boatin' and floatin'.  That phrase might just make it onto a t-shirt.  Be sure to check out the Ship Store on the Lake Life website.  He has a new grandson who's 5 and half months old.  The kiddo has already been floatin' on the water. They talk about how important getting down to the lake is for the family.  If their family plans any weddings during the summer, Barry will usually send a gift and maybe take them out some other time.  We've spoken often about how Lake Life is such a fun mindset and once you begin, other priorities tend to get reshuffled.  Barry and his family have spent many Thanksgivings and holidays on the lake.  It's truly a special place. Before they wrap up with Barry, they ask about his boats.  He owns a dual console Scout and his Stardust houseboat.  His son has a center console Robalo.  Barry is getting ready to go down to the Ft. Lauderdale boat show.  The group ends with a brief discussion of lake homes vs. houseboats.  Molley and Chad mention they're getting ready for a 10-day catamaran trip with some friends in the British Virgin Islands.  Bob comments he's be fortunate to have travelled all over the world, but Lake Cumberland is one of his favorite places. What Does Chad Like Best about the Dock Crawl? For Chad, it's the entire event.  There's so much going on and people to meet.  Brody, Clifford and Melody Stop by for a Chat Brody is in the 500 row, while Clifford and Melody are in the 300 row at the State Dock.  Brody's also checking on the competition.  Melody mentions they have a cruiser.  Now, with the grandchildren, the make it down to the lake about every 3rd weekend.  Brody has a middle console boat, a houseboat and an F4.  Clifford's been coming down to the lake for 12-15 years.  Molley asks what they each like about coming down to the lake.  Brody likes taking the boat out on the water.  He got his Kentucky boating license about a month ago.  Melody explains they originally started with runabouts.  Life happened and it made getting a slip seem much more convenient.  Besides, Clifford doesn't what a pool, so the lake does just fine.  Both Molley and Chad and Melody and Clifford talk about experiences like building a home and putting down flooring, which can seriously test the bonds of a marriage.  What Advice They Would Offer to Someone Considering the Dock Life? Clifford quickly says, “Just do it!”  Brody says, “Just come hang out with them.”  It'll definitely show you how much fun Dock Life can be.  Melody mentions that coming down to the lake on the weekends is their vacation, rather than waiting all year for a week somewhere.  It's a life-style.  Extended family will begin to figure out that time on the water is important to you.  It all works out, but sometimes you have to take time to enjoy your investment. Clifford needs to go put on his costume for the competition.  So, we wish them luck and might see them next year.  Tim and Christine Join Us to Talk about Their Dock Crawl Experience Tim and Christine Cole are here for their first dock crawl.  Christine wishes there were even more rows.  Their slip is in the 300 row.  They had a Regal Cruiser, but now they have a houseboat and an Eliminator power boat.  Tim and Christine have spent most of their lives on the water.  They're from Richmond, Indiana.  They drive 4 and a half hours to get to Lake Cumberland.  Tim and Christine try to make it down almost every weekend.  They like to get to the lake on Thursdays and return home on Sundays.  Tim explains that they met back in 1994 and used to go to Dale Hollow for roughly 6 years.  Christine has known Sandy since middle school, so they decided to start coming to Lake Cumberland, instead of driving so far. Chad mentions that he's been coming to the lake with Molley's family for probably 30 years.  Molley grew up on the water and Chad married into a lake family.  Eventually, the decided to buy a lake home in the area and have never looked back.  As the Dock Crawl party kicks in, the noise got pretty loud.  They made the decision to pack it up and call it a night, at least for the podcast! That's a wrap for this episode.  We'd like to thank our friends and all of our new friends for guest hosting with us.  We hope you found it helpful, insightful and maybe a little entertaining.  Thanks for Listening!

Episode 28:  It's time for another episode of Lake Life with Molley and Chad! In today's episode, we're joined by our friends Fran, Rob and Adam to talk about Lake Cumberland, in Kentucky.  This is a continuation of our tour of lakes across Kentucky and Tennessee.  It's time for a deep dive into what makes this lake so special. Please note:  This conversation includes a few, random curse words.  We apologize if you find them offensive.  Additionally, we thought we'd let any parents with young kids know, before you begin playing the episode. Lake Cumberland Is a Special Place Molley and Chad are recording this episode at Grider Hill Marina.  Chad talks about why Lake Cumberland is her favorite place to go.  It's one of the prettiest lakes in Kentucky.  Although Molley and Adam agree that Dale Hollow is a close second.  Adam's been coming on the lake since 1985.  His buddy's parents had been coming to Grider Hill, since the early 1970s.  Adam bought a 1963 Marionette that took a lot of work to get running.  He talks about his experiences and why he really likes this lake.  He and his friends would come to the lake and ski all day and grill steaks in the evenings.  Fran and Rob have been coming to Lake Cumberland for the past 3 seasons.  They rode around with Adam a lot.  At the time, Fran and Rob had a pontoon.  They eventually purchased a 1986 Wellcraft St. Tropez, which was much better to sleep on compared to the pontoon. Chad asks Fran and Rob about their favorite areas on the lake.  They like 76 Falls.  It's close to Grider Hill Marina.  That's a plus for them because their Wellcraft doesn't have the power of other boats on the lake.  Rob comments about how much he enjoys the opportunity to go to sleep and wake up on the water.  It's worth the 3-hour drive. For Adam, even though it's a 5-6 hour drive to get to the lake, the serenity and ability to unwind is worth it.  However, the duration depends upon how many Walmarts or Dollar Generals he hits on the way.  Chad comments that it's a 2-hour drive, unless Molley's driving. Lake Cumberland Marinas and Campgrounds While this might not capture all of them, here's a good list of marinas:   Alligator 1 Alligator 2 (also known as Wolf Creek Marina ) Conley Bottom Lee's Ford ·      State Dock ·      Burnside ·      Somerset ·      Rowena ·      Grider Hill There are only 3 recognized campgrounds on Lake Cumberland: ·      Pulaski County Park ·      Lake Cumberland State Park ·      Conley Bottom Campground Favorite Activities at the Lake Adam talks about how much he loves to cook.  He always fixes nice meals.  One of his favorite recipes is Sausage Jalapeño Bombs, which he cooks right there on his boat.  The smell usually attracts other boaters for a quick sample.  Being able to share food and meals with friends is all part of what makes this so special for Adam. Molley talks about how Grider Hill Marina, build in the early 1950s, was one of the last family-owned docks on Lake Cumberland.  It was bought out a few years ago by a company called Safe Harbor.  There's a lot to do in and around the lake area.  One of Adam's favorite activities is to boat over to Cemetery Point at sunset.  There are many places people love to visit and explore on Lake Cumberland.  Having the chance to watch the sunset, while you're on the water is a terrific experience. What Other Lakes Have You Visited? Fran has visited Dale Hollow.  She and Rob have also been to Barren River Lake and Rough River Lake.  She's not a fan of boating on the river.  Adam comments you're either a river rat or a bathtub boater (lake boater).  It's Not All Fun and Games Adam and Rob talk about the time their engine stalled in some pretty deep water.  They were half-way back to their destination, and pretty far from shore.  The question was whether they should have tried to repair it or just toss out the anchor and anchor light.  The problem was the depth where they were at the time. In another incident, Adam had some boat trouble and ended up swimming the boat back.  They sometimes refer to him as Aquaman! Rob really enjoys the Grider Hills area, especially when he can get a few hours on the boat before everyone wakes up.  Places to Eat around Lake Cumberland During the conversation, a few places are mentioned. Fran mentions that Junction Station is a gas station restaurant that serves a pretty good breakfast.  The Eli Country Store is known for its cinnamon roll pancakes.  If you cross in to Tennessee, you can find a steakhouse.  It's only about 25 minutes from the marina.  Molley asks again about the boats the guests own.  Fran and Ron have the '86 Wellcraft St. Tropez.  Adam has a '73 Trojan Express Cruiser.  And at this point, the conversation goes off the rails for a bit. Choosing Lake Life for the Family If you decide to choose lake life is can bring the family closer together and create lasting memories.  There's definitely a sense of community at the lake.  There are events like the dock crawl where people get together for friendship and a little competition.  Fran explains that their children have grown up now.  Time at Lake Cumberland gives them the chance to unplug from the day-to-day world, reconnect to each other and to create new experiences together.  The group talks about when they begin to feel that sense of “we're going to the lake.”  You can feel the stress melting away.  Adam explains how the Lake Life actually chose him.  He hasn't turned back since. Chad tells a story about the time Rob and Fran's boat started to sink.  A clamp came off.  They didn't realize it until the marine assist boat was towing them back to the marina.  It definitely spoiled some of the joy of the trip. Chad explains how a guy with a jet ski basically took over the ramp, recently.  There are simply things you need to understand about launching and trailering your boat/PWC.  Check out the episode on Ramp Etiquette. More Fun Facts about Lake Cumberland The sunsets are beautiful.  The lake actually has more shoreline than FLORIDA.  (Yep, Google it).  The people really make this such a great place to visit.  This sense of community fosters a feeling of belonging and creates a support system that enhances the lake life experience. Chad comments that this sense of community is common to a lot lakes across the state.   However, there's always that one guys at the ramp.  Check out the episode titled, Don't Be That Guy! Molley notices that with the dock, the group really doesn't have to deal with the ramp.  Fran has a pop-up wagon they use to bring everything from the cars straight down to the boat.   That's a wrap for this episode.  We'd like to thank our friends Fran, Rob and Adam for guest hosting with us.  We hope you found it helpful, insightful and maybe a little entertaining.  Thanks for Listening!

Episode 27:  Welcome to Lake Life with Molley and Chad! In today's episode, we're joined by a group of friends to talk about Rough River Lake in Kentucky.  Our friends are Chuck, Dawn, Spence and Lisa.  This is a continuation of our tour of lakes across Kentucky and Tennessee.  Let's jump in, so to speak. Rough River Lake Offers Diverse Activities Rough River Lake is a 65-foot deep reservoir located in Breckenridge, Hardin and Grayson counties, in Kentucky.  It offers a wised range of activities for visitors to enjoy.  It's a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts. The lake has 220 miles of shoreline, providing ample space for visitors to explore and enjoy the beautiful scenery.  Interestingly, it's actually linked to Green River.  Whether it's swimming, boating or simply relaxing on the shore, there are plenty of opportunities to soak up the sun and enjoy the water. Fishing is a popular activity at Rough River Lake.  The lake is known for its diverse fish population, including crappie, bass, hybrid bass and bluegill.  Bass tournaments are held regularly, attracting fishermen from all over.  Whether you're an experienced angler or just starting out, Rough River Lake offers a great fishing experience. For those who prefer a more relaxed experience, Rough River Lake offers opportunities for leisurely boat rides or picnics along the shoreline.  The calm waters in the no wake area provide a peaceful and serene environment, perfect for enjoying a day on the lake. They discuss the historical significance of Rough River Lake.  Chuck and Spence share a funny story about their family's connection to the lake, dating back to the 1960s when their grandfather and great uncle built a cabin there.  The original cabin still stands today, serving as a gathering place for family and friends.  The lake has several boat ramps, making it easy for visitors to launch their boats and explore the lake.  The state dock is a popular spot, providing convenient access to the water.  There are also neighborhood boat ramps available for those who live in the area. Family Bonding at the Lake One aspect of Rough River Lake that stands out is its ability to foster family bonding.  The podcast.  The guys talk about their childhood experiences at the lake, where they would spend their days water skiing and fishing.  They recall the excitement of progressing from wearing life jackets to being able to wear ski belts, which was a big privilege.  These activities not only provided fun and entertainment bus also taught everyone important life skills such as swimming and water safety. There's a mention the importance of family time at the lake.  They describe how the original cabin served as a gathering place for extended family, including grandparents, aunts, uncles and siblings.  Chad talks about the lack of phone reception in certain areas, which allows for uninterrupted conversations and connections with their children.  They describe how being in a secluded cover creates a space for meaningful conversations that may not have happened otherwise.  This aspect of the lake is seen as both a blessing and a curse, as it can lead to surprising and sometimes humorous interactions. Another highlight of family bonding at the lake is the annual family reunion.  Dawn mentions how they turned their regular golf weekends into a larger family gathering at the lake.  This event brings together cousins and extended family members for a weekend of fun activities.  They usually include cookouts, dance parties and euchre tournaments.  Lisa agrees how much they really enjoy these gatherings and the sense of unity they bring. Lisa shares personal stories about their families and their experiences at the lake.  They talk about watching their children grow up at the lake and the memories they have created together.  They talk about an old cabin nicknamed the “OC” and how they wanted their children to experience the rustic charm of the place, despite its imperfections.  These shared experiences have grounded their children and crated a deep love for the lake and all it represents. For the most part, the group stays at Rough River, but from time to time they'll visit friends on Lake Cumberland.  The Lake Brings Relaxation Dawn talks about how your worries and stress will melt away as soon as you reach the lake.  Everyone just relaxes and unwinds.  The lake forces you to slow down and enjoy the present moment. Chad mentions the slower pace of life in the communities surrounding the lake.  They emphasize that the lake provides an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, allowing them to embrace a more laid-back lifestyle.  This slower pace allows for more meaningful interactions with family and friends.  It gives them the chance to truly connect and enjoy each other's company.  Without the distractions of technology and work. Spence talks about their boat (an Axis wakeboard boat), paddleboards and kayaks.  These give everyone the chance to explore the lake and engage in fun water activities.  They reminisce about their children's younger years, when wakeboarding and surfing were a regular part of their weekends.  Although their children have grown older and their interests have shifted, the lake still offers opportunities for them to bond and spend quality time together. They also mention the sense of community that exists around the lake.  They talk about meting up with neighbors and friends, sharing stories and enjoying each other's company.  The lake becomes a gathering place, where people can come together and for connections.  This was a terrific escape during the COVID pandemic. Being Content with their Current Boats One recurring theme throughout the episode is the contentment they each have with their current boat choices.  They express their love for their boats and who well-suited they are for Rough River Lake.  Dawn talks about their white, Cobalt Boat.  It's a runabout with an inboard and outboard motor.  It's the perfect size for the lake and they wouldn't buy another boat.  They have a 26-foot model that's perfect for Rough River Lake.  It's got plenty of room for friends and activities.  They're fully satisfied with their current boats and have no desire to upgrade or buy a new one.  They appreciate the size, comfort and suitability of their boats for the lake.  They are grateful for having a boat that allows them to fully enjoy their time on the water. Interestingly, they talk about who they use their boat year-round.  The lake is extremely peaceful during the winter, especially when virtually nobody else is around.  It gives them time to unplug feeling nothing without feeling guilty about it or engage in some type of project. Spence and Lisa wouldn't mind a getting a new boat.  It might be pontoon time for this family.  The group also talk about the need to prioritize using their boats during the summertime.  Sometimes this means turning down invitations to parties or events.  They've invested in their boat and lake home, so why not use it as long as possible? Relaxing Weekends on the Water Molley and Chad talk about their first boat and the test ride they took in freezing weather.  Of course, learning to trailer the pontoon was much different than the v-hulls they were used to using. One of the guys recalls their grandparents' pontoon boat with a 47.5 horsepower Johnson outboard engine.  Only an engineer could have come up with that level of specificity! An Ideal Weekend on the Water Spence describes their routine of leaving on a Thursday afternoon and arriving at Rough River Lake within an hour.  It's great to be able to spend time with family and friends who visit.  There's again that sense of being able to totally unwind and forget about life back in Louisville.  When the weather's good, there's always plenty of time for getting out on the water, floating or some other water activity.  When the lake is quiet, it's a special time.  The serenity of the water during weekdays (especially Mondays and Tuesdays) can be a complete vacation.  It's great to be able to explore all the different places without the weekend crowds.  The water can also seem so pure; it's pristine nature and definitely worth the experience. Chad describes how they try to do a full moon cruise at least once a summer. Fireworks on the Water One of the highlights of their boating experience is getting to watch fireworks on the water.  It's something special and completely different from watching it from land.  They've watched fireworks during the Fourth of July weekend.  They're terrific near the lodge and the dam in Grayson County.  There are typically boats everywhere and it creates a beautiful setting, with all of the lights.  It's really nice to be able to anchor the boat so close to the action.  Another aspect is how the water reflects the fireworks and how the sound echoes off the rocks and hills.  It's very similar to going to see Thunder Over Louisville, but without having to fight the crowds. One Fourth of July weekend, Chad and Molley got together with friends and rented a few houseboats.  It was a great way to watch the fireworks.  Although, Chad admits trying to get some sleep during the show that year.  Over all, it's a special way to view the fireworks and it's a way to create some terrific memories. Where to Put in on Rough River Lake? The consensus is that people who are new to Rough River Lake will enjoy using the state ramp, on the main channel.  From there you'll have easy access to the south fork and the north fork of the lake.  You're also close to the lodge and the state park marina.  The lodge has a nice restaurant.  By the way, make sure you check out Nick's Boat Dock to get some ice cream or eat a pork chop sandwich at their Sometimes Grill.  Lake Levels Lowering for Dam Repair The group spends time discussing an important topic, the dam repair which is causing lake levels to be lowered.  It's definitely going to impact the lake and surrounding areas.  The repair project could last 6-8 years, based on a previous project at Lake Cumberland.  That project took 7 years.  Rough River Lake summer pool is going to be lowered by 5 feet.  That's going to have a huge impact on the size of the lake.  It's a tremendous volume of water.  The lower levels could make it impossible to access certain beach areas. Obviously, it's a necessary project, but the necessary improvements will also result in a multi-year challenge for people who live on or near the lake, as well as those who travel to Rough River Lake on the weekends.  The shorelines are going to change.  This will most likely cause the closure of some beaches, which also affect boaters and campers.  There's a good chance that docks might be able to be moved and other spots will obviously become more popular on the lake. As boaters, the group discusses how the lower water levels will expose numerous submerged obstacles, such as trees and old bank structures.  This can pose a significant threat to boaters, especially if they are unfamiliar with the lake.  Something else to consider is that boaters will tend to see more crowded conditions.  This would also make it tougher to find good parking near certain ramps.  For those who have docks, they need to consult with the Army Corps of Engineers about extending docks.  The Corps will do it's best to balance the work and the need for the surrounding community to be able to thrive.  It's going to be a difficult balance.  For instance, some lakeside or area restaurants may not open, due to the potential drop in boaters and tourists.  This will further limit the options for dinning out. At the end of the day, the community will need to navigate the uncertainties and challenges ahead to ensure the sustainability and enjoyment of the lake for years to come. Molley takes a couple of minutes to talk about Trooper Island on Dale Hollow.  They did a full episode on it.  She gives a shout out to Mike's Landing Restaurant on Sulfur Creek, at Dale Hollow. On Rough River, you might want to check out Little Dave's Restaurant and Pizza.  They used to cook pizza on a boat while anchoring up in various coves.  Lessons Learned on the Water Molley asks each of the guests to talk about something they wish they would have known when they started. #1:  The Positive and Negative Side of Sunscreen Many new boaters listen to this podcast.  As the group discussed experiences with boating and lake life, the topic of sunscreen came up.  Obviously, if you're going to be on the water, you need to apply sunscreen.  However, you also need to be aware of what can happen to your boat's upholstery.  Make sure you and your guests sit on a towel if they've applied sunscreen.  Speaking of your upholstery, check out some great tips about what types of food to bring and what specifically to avoid in Episode 2. #2:  Don't Fight the Slower Pace at the Lake The lake is going to slow you down.  It's natural.  Enjoy the down time.  You'll get so much more out of it. #3:  Safe Boating Advice When you first started driving, it took a while to get familiar with the rules of the road, how the car handled and other safety issues.  It's the same for boating.  Sure, you may have a lot of room out on the water, but there are still dangerous areas, and hazards you may not see.  If you're new to boating, you should definitely take a boating safety course and learn the rules/regulations of boating.  When new boaters fail to follow the rules, it puts everyone in danger and can ruin what should have been a great time on the lake.  In Episode 1, Molley and Chad spoke candidly about their first few times out on the water and some of the mistakes they made. #4:  Be Patient with the Big Investment If you're considering buying a boat or buying a lake home, you need to do your research.  There's a lot to consider.  It's going to take patience and understanding, if you want to do it right.  There's a lot more work and maintenance that goes into owning a boat or lake home.  Some people may not be ready for it.  As a word of advice, the group talks about the importance of helping out, if you are invited for a boat trip or a weekend at the lake.  There's a lot that needs to be done and your hosts will definitely appreciate it. The final segment is a general discussion about driving and trailering their boats.  There was a special mention of Current Watersports in Shepherdsville, KY, so we thought we'd include a link. They also have locations near Cincinnati and Knoxville. Check them out! That's a wrap for this episode.  We'd like to thank our friends Chuck, Dawn, Spence and Lisa for guest hosting with us.  We hope you found it helpful, insightful and maybe a little entertaining.  Thanks for Listening!

Episode 26:  In this episode, Molley and Chad continue their focus on highlighting several different lakes in Kentucky and Tennessee, Trasee and Fess are here to provide insights and recommendations about Norris Lake. Norris Lake, located in Tennessee, is a popular destination for lake enthusiasts and vacationers alike. With its vast size, muddy waters, and unique floating communities, Norris Lake offers a one-of-a-kind experience for those seeking a lakeside getaway. Trasee and Fess have been going to Norris Lake since 2005, giving them a wealth of experience and knowledge about the area. They own a Sea Ray 220 Sundeck, which is not their first boat. They talk about their earlier days with a smaller boat (Sea Ray 190). When asked why they chose Norris Lake out of all the lakes in the region, Trasee explains that they were introduced to it by a friend. They used to gather with friends for Labor Day vacations, exploring different places each year. Eventually, they heard about Norris Lake and decided to give it a try. They initially had a challenging experience with low water levels and muddy conditions, but they fell in love with the lake and have been returning ever since. Norris Lake is a man-made lake, spanning 33,000 acres with 809 miles of shoreline. There are many marinas scattered across the lake, with Trasee and Fess admitting that they have only visited five out of the twenty-one marinas available. They also mention that all marinas have boat ramps, making it convenient for boaters to access the lake. Trasee and Fess have a home in Andersonville.  It's near the middle of the lake.  They have easy access to at least 5 marinas. The Floating Communities on Norris Lake One unique feature of Norris Lake is the presence of floating communities. There are approximately 2,100 floating houses on the lake, and many marinas host these communities. The hosts inquire about Trasee and Fess's thoughts on the floating houses, and they reveal that they were initially intrigued by the idea but changed their minds after speaking to people who had experience with them. Lake Like Is Fun and Convenient Lake life is fun and convenient. Trasee and Fess discuss their love for the lake and the reasons why they chose to embrace the lake life lifestyle. Their stories highlight the enjoyment and convenience that comes with living near the water. Trasee's love for the water began at a young age when she had the opportunity to spend time on a friend's boat. She quickly realized how much fun it was and became hooked on the water. Fess, on the other hand, grew up as a river rat, spending his time on the Ohio River and Kentucky River. When Trasee expressed her desire to explore other bodies of water, they decided to venture into lake life.  They spent 12-13 years boating on the river, but Trasee really wanted to go back to the lake. The convenience of lake life is further emphasized by the accessibility of the water. Most places on Norris Lake allow residents to walk down to their docks, making it easy to enjoy the water without having to travel far. This ease of access is a significant advantage for those who love water activities and want to spend as much time on the lake as possible. Fess mentions that the lake is controlled by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), which uses it for hydroelectricity. This control ensures that the lake's water levels are regulated, providing a stable and enjoyable experience for boaters and residents. Additionally, Norris Lake is known for its clear waters, thanks to the Powell River and Clinch River that feed into it. This clarity adds to the beauty and allure of the lake. Lake activities are relaxing and fun Trasee and Fess mention that they are pleasure boating enthusiasts. They enjoy cruising around the lake, stopping to relax and have a good time. When they have guests or visitors, they bring out rafts, tubes, and skis for more adventurous water activities. Lake activities can cater to both those seeking relaxation and those looking for more excitement. Chad and Molley also enjoy floating on a giant mat or lily pad. They describe how it can be a fun activity for both adults and children. Trasee and Fess mention that when adults are on the mat, it turns into a floating bar, with everyone enjoying their drinks and conversation. This highlights the social aspect of lake activities and how they can bring people together for a good time. Trasee and Fess also mention their favorite spot on the lake called the Big Water, which offers beautiful scenery and a chance to swim and relax. They enjoy exploring different parts of the lake and taking in its size and beauty. They appreciate the fact that Norris Lake has remote areas where they can escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy the peace and tranquility of nature. Advice to New Boaters on Norris Lake One of the main advantages of boating on Norris Lake is the ease of access. Unlike other bodies of water, such as the Ohio River, Norris Lake does not have a strong current, making it much easier to navigate in and out of with a boat on a trailer. This is particularly beneficial for new boaters who may not have as much experience maneuvering their boat. The absence of a current also means that there are no difficult angles to navigate when getting the boat onto the trailer. Additionally, the lake offers a peaceful and serene environment for boating. While weekends can be busy with other boaters, it is still possible to find coves and hideaways to escape the crowds and enjoy some solitude.  It's great to go out early in the morning to avoid the rush and enjoy the calmness of the lake. They love sitting out and watching the sunset, highlighting the beauty and tranquility of Norris Lake. For new boaters, Trasee and Fess suggest avoiding going out on a holiday weekend for the first time, as these times can be particularly crowded and overwhelming. Instead, they recommend choosing a quieter time to get familiar with the lake and its navigation. It is also important to scope out the area ahead of time and know where the rental and dock are located. This can help prevent any confusion or getting lost on the water. In terms of the lake itself, Norris Lake offers a unique experience compared to other lakes in Kentucky. Trasee and Fess have visited other lakes such as Lake Cumberland and Dale Hollow and Taylorsville Lake.  They prefer for Norris Lake due to its distinct features. Norris Lake has many fingers and coves, providing opportunities for exploration and discovering hidden spots. In contrast, Dale Hollow is described as a big bowl with islands, lacking the same level of diversity in its landscape. Chad always brings up a story about Molley at Dale Hollow. After a long day of enjoying the lake, she described the water as feeling thicker, possibly due to the minerals present in it. This unique characteristic sparked a debate about whether to speed up or slow down the boat, showcasing the interesting conversations and experiences that can arise from boating. If You Could Buy Any Boat, What Would You Buy? Chad asks them about their dream boats.  Trasee immediately says, a Sea Ray 270 SLX.  Fess loves the Sea Ray 34 Sundancer.  He thinks it a great cruiser option for the lake. Fess talks about Froggie's Patio Bar and Stardust Marina on Lake Norris.  The group talks about how people are accessorizing their slips in very creative ways.  It may not be the most relaxing, but it's another great aspect of the Lake Life. Boating Creates Lasting Family Memories Trasee talks about their experiences boating with their son, Layne, and how it has brought them closer together as a family. They mention that when their son was younger, he would always go out boating with them, bringing along his friends as well. They recall one particular memory of having a group of friends out on the boat, with one of the younger brothers refusing to get off the tube. This memory highlights the fun and excitement that boating can bring to a family, creating moments that are cherished for years to come. There's also the freedom and relaxation that boating provides. Boating allows you to escape from your daily routines and enjoy the peace and tranquility of being out on the water. They talk about how boating has become a way for them to reconnect as a family, especially now that they have a place at Norris Lake. Having a place to stay at the lake makes it easier for them to get away and spend quality time together. They express their excitement at the prospect of their son joining them more often now that they have a place at the lake. Lake Norris is also known for having some great food at the marina restaurants.  Most of the marinas offer some form of local entertainment.  Trasee talks about why Shanghai Marina is one of her favorites.  There's a wide variety of food and settings.  Community and Friendship at the Lake There's a sense of community and friendship that can be found at the lake. Boating allows you to meet new people and form lifelong friendships. The boating community is always willing to help each other out and offer advice. They also talk about how boating has provided them with opportunities to have conversations and create memories that they may not have had otherwise. Memorable Lake Adventures and Laughter Trasee recalls a summer where they realized they weren't using their boat as much as they would like. They reflect on the time and effort it takes to prepare the boat for each outing, but ultimately decide that the memories and experiences they have on the lake make it all worth it. They discuss the tough decisions they have to make, but ultimately conclude that the sense of community and friendship they have found at the lake is invaluable. Greatest Lake Life Memory Molley asks them to share a key memory involving Lake Life. Fess shares a memorable experience of being at the lake with friends. They recall a Labor Day weekend where they witnessed a friend sitting in a motorized tube, surrounded by the NFL cheerleaders from Cincinnati. The image of this friend, with a hat on, cigar in hand, and reading a book, is a source of laughter and amusement for the hosts. They remember this moment and it has become a story they share whenever they get together. Trasee shares the memory of their son learning to ski for the first time. This moment is etched in their memory and brings a sense of pride and joy. She also recalls jumping off a bridge at Norris Lake, an activity that is common at many lakes. Despite hurting herself in the process, the adventure and laughter that accompanied these experiences was worth it. Molley and Chad describe a time when Chad decided to jump off a high spot, when he thought Molley was cheering him on.  Turns out she was trying to tell him she was out of film.  Chad had to jump again! Chad also discuss the fun and excitement of tubing at the lake. They share stories of tubing with friends and the determination they all had to hold on and not let go. They recall the sheer joy and laughter that comes from being on a tube, even if it means getting whipped around and potentially hurting themselves. Fess talks about the time their nieces and the fun they have had with them on the lake. They mention how hilarious it was when the girls confidently claimed that no one could knock them off.  But, they had to stop so the girls could fix their hair. Defining Which Job Each Person Has Fess mentions how they used to trailer their boat until they bought a condo with a slip and lift. They describe this as a game changer, emphasizing the convenience and ease it brings to their boating experience. The conversation then turns to the roles each person plays in their boating adventures. They mention how one person handles the truck while the other handles the trailer. They share stories of their partners' impressive skills in maneuvering the boat and trailer, creating a sense of admiration and camaraderie. This highlights the sense of community and friendship that can be found at Norris Lake, as people come together to share their love for boating. Closing Words Trasee and Fess invite everyone they can to come and enjoy the lake with them. This highlights the inclusive and welcoming nature of Norris Lake, where people can come together and create lasting memories.  We're looking forward to creating even more memories and laughter in the upcoming summer and cherish the moments they have already experienced at the lake.

From the 2023 Spring Media Camp at Dale Hollow, Russ talks with Mark Ridl, owner of Corn Field Fishing Gear in this episode of the BrushPile Fishing Podcast.

It's always good to catch up with old members of the PaddleNFin family and today is no different. The Noobs show is happy to welcome PNF alumni Shane LemMon back to the podcast! Listeners may remember when Shane bought the Bass Thumbs podcast to Paddle N Fin for a time. He made the trip to Dale Hollow last year and we had a great time sharing the water and fun times with him and his wife. We start by catching up with what Shane has been up to since then. He continues to do the Bass Thumbs podcast, shining the spotlight on the west coast kayak angling scene, which often gets overlooked by all the coverage we get on the east coast. He also is running a regional tournament trail and also competing in tournaments as well. Shane then also talks about his new partnership with Yamamoto baits as well as a few other well known big name sponsors! We specifically talk about the new Yamamoto Yamatanuki 2.5 bait. Having heard good things about this bait, and seeing Shane highlight it on his social media, he shows off the new bait and goes over the different ways it can be rigged and the many different applications it can be used for. Shane also goes over a few other new offerings from Yamamoto and a bit of juice on special rigging tips and options. We finish out by highlighting a recent tournament he competed in that was captured by a videographer friend of his, and the big bass he caught on camera. All in all, it was great catching up with Shane and learning about the yamatanuki as well!

Episode 24:  Welcome to Lake Life with Molley and Chad! In today's episode, our friends Jamie and Adam join us to discuss Nolin Lake in Kentucky.  It's also called Nolin River Lake.  Interesting Facts about Nolin Lake Nolin Lake spans parts of Hart, Grayson and Edmonson County, near Mammoth Cave National Park.  It's another man-made lake, like Barren River Lake. It covers roughly 5,700 acres.  There are several popular campgrounds near the lake.  They are Dog Creek Campground, Wax Campground and Moutardier Campground.  There's also Moutardier Resort and Marina.  The Nolin Lake State Park also features a primitive campground at Brier Creek (this may actually be a privately-owned campsite). Fishing on Nolin Noted for its blue-green water, Nolin River Lake is recognized as a top 5 Kentucky fishing lake for catfish, bass, crappie and walleye (or it could be white bass). Getting Their Start with Lake Life Adam started his lake life experience back in 1994-1995.  He bought his first fishing boat in 1996.  Jamie comments that they actually bought a 22' Crownline runabout, before they settled on a specific lake.  They visited several lakes with the kids.  The past year, they switched to a tri-toon pontoon boat. Chad comments about how pontoon boats have evolved over the years.  He was amazed at the prices some of them go for (i.e. $225,000).  Jamie and Adam add that boat prices have increased 30% over the past 3 years.  Molley says this could be the COVID-demand.  People wanted to get out, without being around a lot of people, so the interest in boats surged – resulting in a price surge. Molley describes her experience with early pontoons and how the public has begun to change how they look at the comfort and features offered by this class of boats.  It's a significantly easier ride, even if choppy water. The Decision to Buy a Home at Nolin Lake It was very convenient to drive to a lake that was close to home.  They already had friends at the lake.  Once they found a nice home for sale, they jumped on it.  When COVID hit, it was a terrific refuge.  Chad described how his family used their lake house all the time during the pandemic. What's a Lake Life Weekend Like? Jamie notes that her anxiety starts on Thursday night because she just wants to get there.  Adam heads down Friday morning with the kids.  Jamie arrives after work.  Adam starts the weekend with typical chores (e.g. cutting grass, filling up the gas tank, etc.).  Afterwards, he and the girls might head out on the water for a while.  Adam's excited about having the tri-toon this year, because he can simply tie it up to the dock, rather than having to mess with the trailer.  When Jamie arrives, she might go out on the water, but usually decides to start dinner for the family.  When they had their runabout, they each had their specific job when it came to trailering the boat.  Adam handled the truck and Jamie handled the boat.  Having well defined roles can save a ton of stress and frustration.  Chad and Molley explain why in Episode 1.  The pontoon is going to take a bit more finesse.  Adam and Jamie did some practice runs, when the lake wasn't real crowded. Molley and Chad have had their own “adventures” when it comes to trailering their tri-toon.  In Episode 8, they offer some great tips for ramp etiquette and trailer safety.  It takes good team work, practice and patience.  Although, Chad admits, he still has those moments. (You'll understand if you listen to this episode).  You might also want to check out Episode 7, “Don't Be THAT GUY!” Jamie explains that they have a neighborhood ramp that does make launching and trailering the boat a little easier and much more convenient.  The boat ramp is always a tricky place.  Molley's mom commented in Episode 14 that if people would just remember to show some common courtesy, things would go better for everyone.  At the ramp, it's all about situational awareness. Let's get back to the typical weekend topic.  Jamie describes Saturday morning.  Adam usually starts breakfast and they hit the dock.  They've learned to involved the kids with lunch and snack prep.  Jamie's primary job is to make sure everyone else has their stuff taken care of, that sunscreen is applied and that they don't forget trash bags.  This is a Pro-Tip! The girls like to go tubing.  Adam recommends doing this earlier in the day, in case there's a lot of boats on the water.  If you can get out early, it's a bit less crowded. What other Lakes Have They Visited in Kentucky? Adam has fished in most of them.  For pleasure boating, he's been on Nolin, Cumberland, Green, and Dale Hollow.  Jamie grew up going to Green River Lake in Campbellsville.  She briefly discussed the difference between going in an RV verses having a home at the lake. Even their dogs get excited when they figure out everyone is heading to the lake for the weekend. Back to the Saturday schedule.  Once the tubing is done, they'll go find a cove with some friends and tie up for the day.  They'll try to watch the sunset and then it's time to head back to the lake house for dinner.  After dinner, they might decide to go visit with neighbors until it's time to head to bed. What Advice Would They Offer to Someone Considering the Lake Life? Adam points out that piloting your boat on the right-side, just like when you're driving actually is a thing.  Jamie comments that Lake Life can be a lot of work, but it's all worth it.  It's a financial commitment, and there's a risk of burnout if you're going to do it every weekend.  But again, it's worth it! If You Won the Lottery, What Boat Would You Buy? Jamie says she'd get a large Sea Ray or 28' Crownline to cruise in.  She'd want an open bow.  But in reality, she'd be just as happy owing a tiki hut on an island serving margaritas.  Adam says he'd buy a place in Florida and a 390 MTI.  What Advice Would You Offer to a New Boater? Adam says you have to have patience.  Don't worry about the boat.  Just enjoy the experienced.  Jamie comments about how much she enjoys spending quality time at the lake.  There are always great conversations.  It's brought them closer over the years.  Chad comments how no-signal on the cell phone often helps the kiddos to open up about what's actually going on in their lives.  Jamie also really values the sense of community at the lake.  Their little neighborhood is pretty close-knit.  Everyone keeps an eye on everyone – especially the when it comes to the kids.  It's a safe environment and everyone keeps an eye out for each other. Molley talks about how there's a specific spot on the trip down when it really hits her that she's at the lake.  The stress literally melts away. Nolin Lake was built for flood control.  This means the US Army Corps of Engineers drops the water level during the winter.  Adam adds this begins on October 15th.  Once that happens, you really shouldn't try to take larger craft out on the water.  The water level is increased, beginning on April 15th. Jamie talks about how her kids love to use low water levels to do some treasure hunting.  It's amazing how many anchors you can find and recover! In closing, Jamie recommends patience and caution.  You need to be aware of your surroundings.  She talks about how a storm quickly rolled in and the winds really made for some tense moments. Molley strongly recommends everyone having specific jobs to do.  If a crisis occurs or surprises happen, everyone knows what their responsibilities are.  It's a good life lesson for the kids. That's a wrap for this episode.  We'd like to thank our friends Jamie and Adam for guest hosting with us.  We hope you found it helpful, insightful and maybe a little entertaining.  EPISODE SPONSOR INFORMATION: We'd like to thank today's sponsor and encourage you to contact them for your insurance needs.

Episode 23:  Welcome to Lake Life with Molley and Chad! In today's episode, our friends Holly and Josh join us to discuss Green River Lake in Kentucky.  Let's learn more about their lake adventures. Have fun on the lake The lake is a great place to have fun and make memories. Whether you're fishing, tubing, skiing, or just hanging out with friends and family, there's something for everyone. Green River Lake is an 8,200 acre lake with three marinas.  It's known for its fishing tournaments and its sense of community. People are friendly and welcoming and there's always someone to hang out with. The most popular gathering spot is Butler Creek, but there's also a cove called Mount Washington Cove that people like to hide away in.  Holly and Josh have a fishing boat/pontoon, a Bayliner ski boat and a 28-foot from Cruiser Yachts. On average weekends, they'll go out and get some sun, ski tube with the kids, or go to Party Cove and listen to music and drink. If the kids aren't with them, they'll just float and relax, and then come back and grill out, play cards and play games.  Make memories on the lake For those who don't own a boat, there are plenty of rental options. You can rent a pontoon, a ski boat, or even a yacht. No matter what you choose, you'll be able to explore the lake and have a great time. For those with kids, the state park campground has a beach where they can swim and play. And if you're looking for a more adventurous experience, you can join a fishing tournament or take part in a raft-up.  Molley talks about her first memory at Green River Lake.  She and her brother encountered a guy fishing, but forgot to ask what he was using that day.  Chad's family typically camped and then rented boats at Green River.  They talk a little about dealing with inexperienced jet ski operators. Josh shares his memories about his parents starting out at Green River Lake.  Holly describes how her kids know what each of the marinas and docks feature.  If They Won the Lottery What Boat Would They Buy? Holly would get a seafoam green, center-console Scout.  Josh would choose a wake boat and a houseboat.  What Are Some of Your Favorite Lakes? Holly grew up going to Cumberland and Dale Hollow and remains partial to both.  She's heard nice things about Norris Lake.  It's a great mix of scenery and things to do.  She's also been to Rough River.  Josh has been to Taylorsville, Nolin, Barren, Cumberland, Dale Hollow and Green River Lake.  Explore Different Lakes Exploring different lakes can be an exciting and rewarding experience. It can be an opportunity to make memories that will last a lifetime and to experience a variety of different cultures and scenery. From the calm and peaceful waters of Green River Lake to the wild and windy waters of Cumberland, there are plenty of lakes to explore. Green River Lake is a great place to start. It's perfect for fishing, and it's easy to navigate. The lake is wide enough that you don't have to worry about getting lost, and it's small enough that you can cover the entire lake in just a half tank of gas. There are plenty of cabins to rent and plenty of social activities to participate in.  Cumberland is a great lake to explore too. It's much bigger than Green River, and it can get very windy. But when the wind comes across the main channel, it can be like the ocean, with three-foot whitecaps. This can make for a rough ride, so it's important to be careful. The lake is also home to some of the best bass fishing in the country. Dale Hollow is another great lake to explore. It's a smaller lake, but it's still a great place to fish and it's a great place to relax.  Exploring different lakes can be an amazing experience. You get to experience different cultures, different scenery, and different activities. You get to make lifelong memories and friendships, and you get to see what each lake has to offer. If you're looking for an adventure, make sure to explore different lakes.  Enjoy Time on the Lake Molley talks about how coming home to their own lake is just as special. After visiting different places, you get to come back to the familiarity of your home lake. You know the area, the people, and the activities you can do. You also get to make new memories with the people you love and care about. When you're driving to a new lake, it can be a bit of a challenge. You may not know the area and you may not know where you're going. Chad comments about how navigating a new lake may require looking at your phone trying to figure out where you are. But, when you've been going to the same lake for years, you know the area and you know how to get back.   When you're on the way to the lake, you may have a certain spot that you look forward to. For some, it's the water tower, for others, it's the rooster farm. For others, it's the movie playing on the DVD player. These little things can make a big difference when you're on the way to the lake.  Favorite Memories When you've been to the lake for years, you may have a favorite memory. Holly describes how it was when a friend asked him to shave a “K” for his girlfriend's name on his back. The same guy tried to do tricks on the slide and ended up hitting his head. Chad talks about the time his father-in-law helped him gain the respect of his son by whipping him around on the tube. Molley talks about how much she enjoys seeing the lake through the eyes of someone who's never been on the lake.  These memories are all enjoyable, but it's important to remember that safety comes first.   One Piece of Advice for a New Boater For Holly, it's before you get out on the lake, it's important to make sure you read the manual. Whether you're in a boat, a pontoon, or a tube, it's important to make sure you know the safety protocols. The last thing you want is for something to go wrong and for someone to get hurt.  Josh suggest that you put the plug in, as well as a spare set of keys in case something goes wrong. Overall, it's important to remember that reading the manual before boating is essential. It's important to make sure you know the safety protocols and that you have the necessary supplies. Boating can be an amazing experience, but safety always comes first.  Romantic Date Night on Boat Holly reminds Josh about a romantic date night on their boat. Just imagine, you and your partner out on the lake, the stars shining above, and the cool night air on your skin. It's a truly magical experience. Josh had the perfect plan. He brought a foam mattress to lay on, so they could look up at the stars. He also brought Prosecco and a charcuterie board for them to enjoy.  If you're looking for a romantic date night, a boat is the perfect place. You can take in the beauty of nature while spending quality time with your partner. It's a great way to connect and create memories.  EPISODE SPONSOR INFORMATION: We'd like to thank today's sponsor and encourage you to contact them for your Lake Cumberland real estate needs.

Episode 22:  Welcome to Season 3 of Lake Life with Molley and Chad!  In this season, we're going to discuss various lakes and why people like specific lakes.  In today's episode, we interview Anna and Todd about Barren River Lake, in Kentucky.  Todd grew up on this lake. Barren River Lake Molley begins with some interesting facts.  Barren River Lake is in western Kentucky.  It occupies parts of Allen, Barren and Monroe Counties.  It's actually a man-made lake.  Todd adds that it reaches 10,000 acres at summer pool.  It was built for flood control.  The US Army Corp of Engineers can raise or lower the level of the lake in an attempt to reduce the amount of water that could cause flooding after a severe storm.  In mid-October, the water level begins to be reduced, after the spring and summer rains have moved on.  At winter pool, it's the water level is approximately 26' lower that during the summertime.  Marinas on Barren River Lake According to Todd, there are currently 3 marinas available to boaters and the general public.  Todd wasn't sure if Walnut Creek Marina was still open.  His favorite marina is The Narrows. Todd and Anna Discuss How They Started their Lake Life Journey Todd grew up in the area, but Anna didn't have this experience growing up.  Todd began getting into boating with friends and families when he was young.  The lake was full of some fun Sunday memories.  Todd and Anna got married in 2001.  Todd's dad gave them his boat, a 1988 Dyna-Trak Fish & Ski.  It was the first boat they owned as a couple.  Anna comments that this was a new experience for her.  Chad had a similar experience, because he didn't grow up around boating, either. Anna describes trying to learn to trailer the boat with Todd.  The process seemed a bit overwhelming.  Now, she lets Todd and his dad handle it.  In 2007, they decided to buy a pontoon, given some of the issues they had around trailering the boat.  They've been able to simply dock the boat to make things easier. Anna and Todd typically put the boat in the water around May and it stays there until October.  Once in a while, things don't work out.  That's when Todd mentions how they've learned to depend on the guys at the Barren River Boat Shop.  Todd's good at breaking things and they're good at fixing them! Scheduling Lake Time For Anna and Todd, it's usually weekends and sometimes a 3-day weekend.  If they can get down for an entire week, it's usually an entirely different experience.  Chad comments how Tuesdays and Wednesdays are terrific because there's hardly anyone else out on the water.  That's Anna's favorite time. Favorite Locations They like to go tubing in the Beaver Creek area.  Barren River Lake also has several no-ski areas.  Molley explains why these exist on Barren.  Certain areas aren't maintained, so there may be hazards, such as tree stumps and other items beneath the water.  These can pose a danger, so it's safer simply to designate them as no-ski zones. Molley and Chad have had some experiences in these areas and tell a brief story about how they've lost anchors.  By the way, they're looking for show sponsors, so if manufacture or sell anchors, here's your chance! Todd admits he's donated 2 anchors to the bottom of Barren River Lake. Family Activities on Barren Interestingly, Todd comments that they don't see a lot of skiers on the lake.  His son, Cole, likes to wakeboard, kneeboard and tube with friends.  Anna says Todd is always the driver when it comes to pulling tubers.  She enjoys riding more.  Todd refers to her as “The Admiral” because they don't drive.  As a Pro-Tip, they've learned to limit the number of tubing sessions in a given day.  They like early mornings and later in the afternoon, instead of going all day long The Current Boat Anna and Todd currently have a 22' Barletta tri-toon.  They still have their other boats and a couple of jet skis.  They built a lake house, which makes it much easier to have the boats and spend more time with them. Experiences on other Lakes in Kentucky Anna comments that they don't take their boats to other lakes.  However, she's been to Lake Cumberland, Lake Herrington (Harrodsburg area) and Norris Lake (Tennessee). Todd has been to most of the lakes in Kentucky, with the exception of some of the ones in eastern Kentucky.  He's been to Dale Hollow, Barkley, Kentucky Lake, Nolin, Green River Lake, Rough River Lake.  Growing up in Glasgow, Barren River Lake is home and he still has plenty of family there. Molley grew up on Barren River Lake.  She recounts how her family used to campo at Barren River State Park, near Walnut Creek.  This was there Labor Day Weekend lake. If You Won the Lottery, which Boat Would You Buy? Anna says they actually love their current boat.  Barren River Lake isn't a huge lake, so having a really big boat would be impractical.  He does like the “surf-type” boats.  Cole might enjoy surfing behind it.  They really like the tri-toon life.  Anna's partial to the big lounger seat.  Chad and Molley talk about their pontoon, which also has the big lounger seat.  It was the main reason they bought the pontoon. What's Something You Know Now, that You Wish You'd Known Earlier? Todd mentions how much he loves being able to dock the boat, instead of having to trailer it each time.  It's so much easier and less stressful.  Chad comments on his experiences on the ramp.  There's always “that guy.”  In fact, they did an entire episode called, “Don't Be That Guy!” Advice to New Boaters Anna explains that before they built their lake house, they used to have a slip at the State Dock.  They would either stay at the lodge, or rent a small cabin.  Her advice is to understand that lake life is a commitment.  There's a lot to it.  Todd agrees.  It can take up the time he might spend on other activities, but they really enjoy being on the water.  This is something to consider if your kids are into summer sports.  It's going to be a challenge to balance all of it. Todd mentions that their lake life has been through some transitions over the years.  They used to spend a lot more time on the lake, but their son has gotten involved in sports.  This has pushed them to make their time more impactful.  However, one of the fun things is having Cole and his friends come to the lake with them.  Anna recounts how they love being able to have guests down to the lake.  It's fun to see people enjoy new experiences.  Then again, she really enjoys those times when it's just the three of them.  Molley adds that there's a huge benefit to having the kids with them.  They usually don't have a good cell signal out there, so they're forced to do something else besides being glued to their phone screens.  It's amazing how many great conversations suddenly occur. Closing Comments about Barren River Lake Todd admits this particular area is a well-kept secret.  It's a smaller lake, but it's almost twice the size of Nolin, Green River Lake and others.  Glasgow is close and offers restaurants and other attractions.  Bowling Green is fairly close.  It's only a 1.5 hour road trip from Louisville.  Anna recommends catching a sunset near the dam.  It's worth it. Their favorite boat launch is Port Oliver.  It's fairly new and really wide.  His dad says it the best in Kentucky.  Todd comments the lunches at The Narrows Marina are terrific.  Get there early! That's a wrap for this episode.  We'd like to thank our friends Anna and Todd for guest hosting with us.  We hope you found it helpful, insightful and maybe a little entertaining.    EPISODE SPONSOR INFORMATION: We'd like to thank today's sponsor and encourage you to contact them for your insurance needs.  The Alan Hall Agency Website:  https://www.alanhallagency.com/ Phone Number:  (502) 345-9440 Thanks for Listening!

American Bald Eagles made a comeback in the upper Cumberland region of Tennessee and Kentucky thanks to an Eagle Restoration Program conducted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nashville District.

Episode 19:  In this episode, Molley and Chad speak with their friends, Brad and Kendrick, about being new boat owners.  Brad and Kendrick were around the lakes, growing up, but now have a boat of their own. Brad explains that for the past 4 years, they've been lucky enough to have inherited their parents' boat.  “It's been an experience from day one!”  They have a funny way of explaining how they've decided to handle the specific jobs when it comes to launching and trailering the boat. Brad discusses how stressful it was launching the boat for the first time.  Kendrick called it “the excitement.”  Molley asks about the moment they finally felt comfortable with the boat.  At the beginning of their second summer, their parents gave them their Sea Ray, which was a big upgrade from the boat they'd been using for the previous summer. New Boat Owner Miscommunications Brad recalls the problems they had the first time they were trailering the boat.  They didn't have their communication and signals down, so it was pretty chaotic.  The boat ramp is always a nerve-racking situation.  Brad strongly advises that managing the boat ramp takes 2 important things:  Communication and Patience. The four of them joke about the added pressure when you're new to boating, or especially at the beginning of the summer, and you're trying to get the boat launch while the kids are pressing buttons and switches, without you realizing it.  What Is a Perfect Day on the Water? Brad describes his perfect day on the water.  He really liked it when all he had to do is show up and ride as a guest.  He likes driving his own boat, but it's a lot of responsibility. What Lakes Have They Visited? Kendrick grew up on Nolin.  As boaters, they've visited Green River and Lake Cumberland.  Brad adds Dale Hollow to the list.  They really got their start on Green River. Brad jokes about taking their 18' craft across the main channel at Cumberland and how choppy it could get because of the larger boats.  Kendrick kept her cool during one particular challenging ride.  Molley actually has a picture from that day. Advice for Young Couples Considering the Lake Life? For someone totally new to the water.  Brad recommends spending the summer with someone who has a boat.  The idea is to give you a reality check on all of the things that go with owning a boat.  He also discusses the importance of having a group you can talk with and get advice from as you're getting used to owning a boat.  You might get stranded and need someone to help you out. Kendrick explains that if you didn't grow up around the lake and boating, it's a whole new world.  You need a good support group. Brad discusses the importance of understanding the size of the boat as it relates to the specific lake you plan to visit most often.  Are you going to take guest?  What water sports do you want to do?  All of these factors are important to your decision about which boat to buy.  What's That One Bonehead Mistake You Could Have Avoided? Brad's been around boating since he was young.  His parents took him on the water as early as they could.  He loves the memories he created on Lake Cumberland.  But then there will always be mistakes. Just a couple of weeks ago, Brad figured out that he forgot the plug.  He's scratching his head, because he's still making mistakes, as a somewhat experienced boater.  This was the first outing of the summer.  There were so many things going on that day, including a curious 2-year-old daughter who likes to try out the new switches.  They laugh about it now, but wow, what a day. Chad discusses the time he lost the keys to the boat shed.  He was in a bit of a hurry and left them on the back of the truck.  Two weeks later, he did it again!  Molley explains how they've decided to switch to combination locks. More Advice to New Boaters Brad comments how many things simply come down to respect.  Respect the environment.  Respect other boaters.  That includes appreciating the environment.  Clean up your trash.  Interestingly, he also asks people to not be focused on calling attention to yourself. Chad loves when he and Molley just find a quite cove.  Molley can read her book and Chad takes the opportunity to do a little fishing.  Brad adds that it really took them 4 years until he and Kendrick go the chance to take the boat out by themselves.  It turned out to be one of his favorite times on the boat. Molley explains how much she values those quite experiences.  Having people down to the lake is always fun, but entertaining is still work.  As busy as life gets, it's important to make time to get back out on the lake.  The experiences, face time, time with your kids (and their friends) and so many other positives happen at the lake.  Take advantage of it. If You Won the Lottery Tomorrow, What Boat Would They Buy? Brad would get a 32' center console Sunsation.  It'd be big enough for their group of friends.  It would handle the traffic on Cumberland and it's still small enough to be towable.  Although, he also likes Howard Boats.  Kendrick has a different idea.  She wants more room for friends.  She'd like an open-bow runabout, at no bigger than 30'.  But, she really wants a swim deck. What Has Been Their Least Favorite Thing About Boating? For Kendrick, launching the boat is the most stressful part.  Brad comments on the maintenance, especially winterizing and de-winterizing.  Regardless however, boating has been such a great experience for them. We'd like to thank our friends Brad and Kendrick for joining us for this episode.  Molley and Chad recorded this from their cabin at Trooper Island.  Check out Episode 19 to learn more about that fantastic resource on Dale Hollow Lake. That's a wrap for this episode.  We hope you found it helpful, insightful and maybe a little entertaining.  Thanks for Listening!

Today on WASTOIDS With, we're talking with country singer and raconteur Dale Hollow. "Yours truly" might possess signature yellow lens glasses and a Manu Ginobili-like frame—with a wit and tongue ‘n cheek bravado to match—but behind all that is a distinct voice, delivered with the ease of a natural songsmith. For this WASTOIDS chat, Hollow sits down with Duwaun Johnson of The Country Brothers to talk about how he hooked up with masked singer Orville Peck, his love of basketball, his cover of the 2010 dance sensation “Dancing on My Own” by Robyn, and his favorite Coen Brothers movies. Got something you want to holler at WASTOIDS about?

Jack Daniel Williams crushed with forward-facing sonar to win the Toyota Series Presented by A.R.E. Central Division event on Dale Hollow Lake. After beating out a giant field and a ton of local talent, Williams stops by the pod to talk about how it came to be and go in-depth on his techniques.

While on the recent Paddle N Fin tournament at Dale Hollow, I was privileged to be introduced to our guest on tonight's show, Jeff Hepp. Jeff served as our unofficial chaplain for our event, and was staying with the PNF crew and joined in our shenanigans throughout the weekend. Jeff is a veteran and has started an adventure of his own to catch a fish in all fifty states! On tonight's show, we get to know Jeff, and learn about the struggles and highlights of his Fish the 50 adventure so far. Jeff talks about the many species he's encountered so far and the baits he carries as he seeks to locate fish in the many different places and situations he gets to fish. We also cover the therapeutic benefits that fishing can have for people trying to recover from a variety of mental and emotional issues, as well as the role faith has played in our lives. Tune in for a great interview with a great guy!

It's been almost three weeks since I've recorded and the reason why was because Anthony Garcia was on a THREE WEEK TEAR! He won KBF Roosevelt Trail then he won the ABA IRON MAN event on the Delta and then he traveled out to Louisiana to Caddo for KBF and took 2nd place in the trail and 3rd place in the Pro Series! Anthony pocketed almost $10,000 in his three week tear and caught so massive fish doing it!  Also I recapped my trip out to TN for the Paddle N Fin event at Dale Hollow!  Keep your thumbs ripped!  Follow Anthony Garcia  Instagram: https://instagram.com/gteam_outdoors?utm_medium=copy_link YouTube: https://youtu.be/2g_hfZp0jxA Follow Me: @bassthumbsfishing Learn more about your ad choices.
