KY Afield Outdoors: Productive Fall Spots to Bank Fish for Bass By Lee McClellan Frankfort, KY - The length of day relative to the time of year never changes. As the nights lengthen slightly with each passing day in fall, the overnight temperatures drop and pull heat from the top layers of lakes. This development is already underway, but will peak over the next month and make excellent fishing conditions for black bass. "The cooler, oxygenated water in the shallows draws baitfish and the bass follow to feed heavily," said Jeff Ross, assistant director of fisheries for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. "The shorter days signal to bass that winter is coming and they must feed heavily in fall." The shallow movement of black bass, mainly largemouth bass, but a few spotted bass and even smallmouth on lakes that have them, presents the best bass fishing opportunities of the year for bank-bound anglers.

Carol Perkins: Don't let dreams turn into nightmares Avoiding the Supernatural World on Halloween: The kind of fear I don't like is the kind that comes from the imagination. There are many things to fear in life, so fearing the fictional seems ridiculous. - CAROL You can listen to Carol today on The "Susan & Carol, Unscripted" show, live. FM 99.1 radio Next earlier column: Carol Perkins: Fostering musical ability requires patience By Carol Perkins I have never watched a horror movie on purpose. Never. There is a reason for that. I avoid watching about the "supernatural" world, even though no one would believe those antics on the screen truly exist, nor do I allow my brain to hold on to what I've seen. I have made it just fine without a Chuckie movie or the "Bride of Frankenstein." While many of my friends have seen every famous horror movie dating back to King Kong, I have not. However, I have seen enough of them to form a lasting impression and for a while, a lasting fear. Peer pressure led me to the dark side a few times with movies like "Rosemary's Baby" and "Psycho."
