About Lake Linville

Set in Kentucky, United States, Lake Linville is a reservoir that holds the typical mix of warm-water and cool-water species you'd expect for the area. Anglers fishing Lake Linville 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.
