Fishing
Cast away your cares on Kincaid Lake! The lake supports a large population of keeper-size and trophy largemouth bass, as well as an abundance of channel catfish, bluegill, sunfish, and crappie. At Kincaid Lake, fishing is a challenge for both the beginner and the avid angler! We are also proud to partner with the KY Department of Wildlife Resources to host a loaner pole program, allowing kids to borrow poles and tackle.
A state fishing license is usually required.
