Stocking White Bass at Upper Sportsman's Lake



2014-02-20 - Frankfort, KY - Photo by Lee McClellan, Associate Editor, Kentucky Afield Magazine.
Dane Balsman, urban fisheries biologist for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, stocks a white bass into Upper Sportsman's Lake in Frankfort, one of the Fishing in Neighborhoods (FINs) lakes. The FINs lakes, along with farm ponds and the tailwater areas below dams, make productive fishing alternatives when heavy rains negatively impact rivers and reservoirs.

KY Outdoors Afield: Spring Fishing Frenzy: Try lakes, tailwaters

The Cumberland River tailwater below Lake Cumberland offers year-round opportunities. In late winter, sauger and walleye can be found below Wolf Creek Dam
Click on headline for complete story, photo(s)

By Kevin Kelly

FRANKFORT, KY - Warming temperatures and longer days trigger an angler's instinct to reacquaint oneself with a favorite lake, and try new techniques and equipment picked up over the winter.

A break in the weather this week stirred hopes that spring is not far away. Some of the best fishing of the year will be had in the coming weeks, but early spring conditions also can be downright challenging at times.

A smaller lake or farm pond - once iced out - and tailwaters shouldn't be overlooked by anglers as potential options when water elsewhere is too high, too muddy and too cold to fish.

Troubling Vandalism at Joe Johnson Park

Special Personal Commentary by: Scott Bennett, Adair Co. Little League President

As current Adair Co. Little League President and several year member of the local league Board it is very troubling for me to see lack of respect for property that has gone on over the years at Joe Johnson Little League Park. That lack of respect came to a head yesterday afternoon, when a group of 8 year old boys went out to the park to enjoy the spoils of the beautiful day and take in some practice. As they approached Field 2 the outfield was full of mangled grass and rutted out tracks from someone's "fun".

Poetry by W.M. Feese, Jr. - My Early Years in Knifley

My Early Years in Knifley
I was born in a mill shack up Spout Springs holler
Where the Feese Brothers sawed timber to make a dollar
They would move to a stand of timber and then
Construct mill shacks for the families to live in.

They'd live in the mill shacks till the timber was gone
Then move to another stand and so on and on
Life was hard for these hardy men
But they did what they did again and again

It was in such a shack that I was born
It happened in August one damp, dewy morn
The year was nineteen forty five
On the twenty ninth day did I arrive

They said the news spread fast in the logging camp
That I had arrived by light from a lamp
My Aunt Mattie was there to help mom and then
She carried me out to show all the men

Not long after I came to be
We moved to the quaint little town of Knifley
It was a bustling metropolis then
A wonderful place for us to live in

A movie theater, pool rooms and feed store
Groceries and restaurants, churches and more
A small town to live in, my we were so lucky
To now have a home in Knifley, Kentucky

My memories of Knifley are precious to me
We lived there from forty six to nineteen fifty
Though but a small child in my early years
I remember we left in sorrow amidst many tears

To Columbia we moved, I remember it well
I was a young lad of five with stories to tell
Many stories of Knifley through the eyes of a child
And later as a young man when we were so wild

Maybe some day these stories I'll tell
Perhaps in a book I may try to sell
But no matter what they happen to be
There'll be nothing but good things about KNIFLEY!
W. M. Feese, Jr., February 20, 2014

Sheriff says simple sign will stop unwanted political soliciting

By Harrison Moss
Personal commentary

Mr Waggener This is an easy fix . Most Adair Countians don't mind candidates visiting. For the ones who do, a simple NO SOLICITING sign in an obvious location should minimize contact. I always respect a NO SOLICITING sign. You should be able to pick them up at Walmart, a local hardware store, or you can just make one with paper and a marker.

Thanks, Sheriff Harrison Moss --Harrison Moss

Candidate sends phone number for personal contact

Many people require personal visits, writer says. But for those not wishing to have visits can call him and he'll respect wishes.

Comments re article 65437 Candidate visits Its an intrusion but a necessary one



By Dale McCloud
Personal commentary

Ed, I would like to respond as I very much respect the rights and privacy of all and respect how they feel concerning this issue. I am not coming door to door because I am trying to bother folks or to invade their privacy in any way. I am going door to door as I have heard so many times in the past" I would have voted for he or she if only they had taken the time to ask me" It would be so much easier to know who does not want me to call on them or to come to their home. I will respect those who do not and hopefully not show up at their door. Thank you, I can be contacted on my cell phone, 270-250-2406. --Dale McCloud

The Barnetts Creek solution to meet candidates in person

Congregation will hold a candidate forum, mix and mingle
Comments re article 65433 Doesnt want candidates to come to her door

By Bill Troutwine
Personal commentary

I have a solution to door knocking visits by political candidates. Last night at our church (Barnett's Creek United Methodist Church) business meeting the attending members voted to have a spaghetti dinner and invite all Adair County candidates to attend. Each attending candidate will be given 3 to 5 minutes to tell everyone what they have to offer and why they deserve your vote. We believe most all the Pellyton community will be attending, and all candidates will also be able to mix and mingle with the crowd.

Likes candidates' visits to homes: The 'How do you do'? calls

Likes local customs. Thinks sign on would suffice for those who do not want visits
Comments re article 65433 Doesnt want candidates to come to her door

By Marina Coffey
Personal Commentary

I like the home "How Do You Do, as a chance to meet the person on a personal level, campaigning for a office they are seeking to be elected.

I understand those who do not enjoy being bothered by a campaign hopeful, however, a small sign on the door to stop the knock should fix this. Customs in a small town fast disappearing these days are still enjoyed by some. --Marina Coffey

Traffic Advisory: Over dimension load

By Chris Jessie

The load we have been tracking over the past couple of days continues north today. It stayed at the Hart County Rest area last night and started traveling north on I-65 at 7amCT. It is moving at speeds from 20 to 40 miles per hour. It will take the Bluegrass Parkway east from Elizabethtown to Frankfort via US 127 to I64 and continue to Lexington. Motorists should be patient if they come up on the queue behind the load's caravan. - CHRIS JESSIE, Public Information Officer, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, District 4 - Elizabethtown

Candidate visits: It's an intrusion - but a necessary one

He not only accepts personal visits as necessary, even if intrusive, but thinks all candidates should respond to media surveys and questionaires. Adds that sometimes, the personal visits give him reason not to vote for the individual.
Comments re article 65433 Doesn't want candidates to come to her door

By Jon Halsey

I agree with the writer that it can be a bother when candidates come calling. However, I welcome the intrusion. I agree with you, Ed, the personal contact is very important. I tend to look disfavorably on a candidate who doesn't take the time and effort to make that contact.

Doesn't want candidates to come to her door

Another viewpoint on one of Adair County's most honored traditions, personal campaigning. The writer makes a good point, which should be respected for those who feel as she does - but we were hoping for more personal campaigning this year, less paid advertising. Maybe there's some simple solutions to the problem.

LWC College seminar plays 'Hunger Games'

Click on headline for story with photo(s)

By Duane Bonifer, Director of Public Relations
Lindsey Wilson College

COLUMBIA, KY - Lindsey Wilson College religion instructor Cinda Swan held "The Hunger Games" Tuesday afternoon, February 18, 2014.

During the weekly meeting of Swan's "Social Justice" undergraduate seminar in Goodhue Academic Building, the class was divided proportionally into three groups: developed countries, newly industrialized countries and developing countries. Each group was given an amount of food that reflected the annual consumption by that segment of the world.

Students sent into developing nations -- which include about 60 percent of the world population -- were given about a cup of rice. Students in newly industrialized countries -- which include about 30 percent of the world population -- were given a basic meal of rice, tortillas and a vegetable. The lone student assigned to the developed countries -- which account for about 10 percent of the world population -- was treated to a dinner of baked chicken, vegetables, lasagna and dessert.

The purpose of the exercise was to illustrate the imbalance of food distribution in the world. - DUANE BONIFER, Lindsey Wilson College.
