Kentucky & Barkley Lake Completed Areas
Additional Scans of the popular lake navigational charts
are now available. See the updated list below for numbers of upstream
charts for Kentucky Lake, Pickwick Lake, and Wilson Lake.
SIDESCAN -- Big Sandy South
(New!!) -- This is the largest sidescan section
of Kentucky Lake to date. This set encompasses over 4000 acres of the
famous Big Sandy Embayment. The area of coverage is from Big Sandy River
mile 5.5 (powerline), south the river mile 12 (just northeast of Country
Junction). The entire West Sandy/Britton Ford arm has been sidescanned
along with Swamp creek. The area originally Topo and 3D mapped is the
core area that has been expanded by over 100%. Be sure to see the product
page for a full representation of the area sidescanned. The area is
definitely not lacking for cover in this crappie haven. One can easily
identify 10,000 structural features (a very conservative estimate).
(Completed October 2005)
Barkley Lake
Northwest (New!!) -- This area includes 3000 acres of Barkley lake
between Cumberland River miles 32 and 38. The major bays within this
area are Nickel Branch, Willow, Demumbers, and Carmack Bays. Other points
of interest include Crab creek and a very large Secondary channel just
east of the Canal and the Cumberland river channel. Bass, crappie, white
bass, redear and even catfishermen have a wealth of areas to explore
with the tremedous amount of subtle underwater details revealed. (Completed
