ROADTRIP!
:beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:
Looks to be about 4 hours from here. I might could pull it off, probably towing a boat as well (I hate renting boats or borrowing boats when I know mine is sitting high and dry in the driveway).

I'd vote for anytime in October. Late September would be okay, but like was already mentioned the leaves and great fishing would make the long trip some are going to make really worth it. I can't wait!!!! :beer: road trip! I'd be up for bringing the family as well as along as others come along, because my wife and kids will not fish near as much as me.

I'd definetly be game! I think DH would only be about maybe a 3-4hr trip for me. Also, If any of you not-so local guys didn't wanna pull your boat all that way, I'd more than likely have an open seat for anyone that wanted to ride along. :beer:

It is about 4 hours from me, just because I have to go around the world to get there. :roll:
Nothing but backroads unless you travel several miles to the north and cut south or several miles to the south and cut back north.
Fall fishing would definitely be best by a long shot but it would also knock me out of coming, more than likely.
One other thing to consider is that KY and TN fishing licenses are not reciprocal on DH, even though the lake straddles the state line. You might want to consider holding it far enough in one state or the other as to not be concerned with wandering over the line while fishing unless everyone wants to purchase both licenses. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Our licenses are reciprocal over on KY Lake for the shared waters plus several miles on either side.

I would definately vote for the Tenn side. Were are planning a 7-10 day trip and will be fishing in Norris Lake, Tn after the 3-day TinBoats event so, four of us buy out of state Tn. licenses works good. We'll also be driving through the smokies, Cades Cove, etc., making it a nice vacation. We have family in Jellico/LaFollette area we'll stay with for a few days while we fish Norris. We'll also be golfing at Crooked Creek in Oneida (where BassNBob is from). I know there are a lot of Tennessee members who would also like the Tn side, but I suspect there are some Kentucky members coming as well. Just my vote for Tn side.....

Eagle Cove Resort might be the place to stay/launch from then... They are right on the border... so if you wanted to fish KY, you could go there and vice versa. Doesn't matter to me either way... just say when and where.

I would vote Tenn. side as well. For me it makes no difference as I will already have to buy an out of State KY license because I do a lot of fishing in KY, but for guys traveling just for this buying two wouldn't be in their best interest. Most of the lake requires a TN license. I think KY covers only 1/4 of lake at best. This is going to be great I can't wait!
