hunting &
fishing
Pack your bags…you need to go to Western Kentucky for the greatest outdoor experience of your life. The true outdoors is right here at
your fingertips. Whether you want to spend a relaxing few days fishing on some of the best lakes and rivers in the country, a long weekend hiking or biking along our many trails, or hunting in one of our
public wildlife management areas, you can find it all right here. Outdoor recreational opportunities are all around you. You can watch
eagles and osprey, cruise down one of our scenic waterways, ride
horses and ATV’s, go kayaking and backpacking, or go camping at
one of our many campgrounds. The possibilities here in the outdoors are endless.
FISHING
With over 217,000 acres of water and over 3,000 miles of shoreline,
Kentucky and Barkley Lakes offer prime fishing year round. You’ll be
sure to find a big catch! The lakes offer catfish, largemouth and
smallmouth bass, Kentucky (spotted) bass, white bass, striped bass,
white and black crappie, bluegill, and rockfish.
HUNTING
Kentucky’s growing deer herd and turkey flock
mean this season will be one of the best ever
to go hunting in the state. Kentucky has 1.6
million acres of land open to the public
for hunting so finding a spot that’s
right for you isn’t hard to do.
Where can you hunt? You can
hunt on the many wildlife management areas or in Land Between
the Lakes, which offers more than
230 days of hunting opportunities
throughout the year for Turkeys,
Deer, Small Game, and Waterfowl. Find more on LBL
Hunting at www.lbl.org.
For more information
about the Outdoor activities
in our area or for a complete listing of Hunting seasons, Fishing limits,

KWW Welcomes You
Kentucky’s Western Waterland, KWW, is a 15-county non-profit organization. KWW represents and promotes all
facets of the tourism industry from the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers to the Lakes Area and beyond to Todd County.
KWW was established in 1969 and is managed by a Board of Directors elected from across the region. KWW is
funded primarily by annual membership dues and fund-raising efforts. The annual regional visitor’s guide and map
published by KWW are the official regional publications. They are mailed by KWW and the Kentucky Department of
Travel and Tourism in response to inquiries received from across the nation. The guide and map are also distributed at a
number of travel and sport shows each year, all of Kentucky’s Interstate welcome centers, and many businesses in the
area who provide copies to their customers.
KWW Welcome Center Office Hours: Monday – Friday 8:30-5:00; Open Saturdays March – October 8:30 - 5:00
