About Bullock Pen Lake

Set in Kentucky, United States, Bullock Pen Lake is a reservoir that holds the typical mix of warm-water and cool-water species you'd expect for the area. Anglers fishing Bullock Pen Lake usually focus their effort on transitions: the edges of weed beds, points that stick out into deeper water, and the shaded sides of any inflow. Early morning and the last hour of light tend to be the most productive windows on a body of water this size.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Flathead catfish

    Fish near structure like submerged logs, rock piles, and deep holes, especially during low light conditions, as flatheads are ambush predators.

  • For Largemouth bass

    Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.

  • For Creek chub

    Use light line and small hooks when targeting creek chub as they have small mouths and can be easily spooked in clear, shallow streams.
