Wow! Those are some beautiful fish for a smaller lake! I love kayak fishing as well, have thought about outfitting mine with a small trolling motor but just never committed to it so far
Why don’t fish and game stock Laurel River Lake with Hybrid fish, plenty of deep cool water for the Hybrids to roam in, if it was voted on by the fishermen of Ky they would say stock Laurel River Lake with Hybrid striped Bass
