Department Lakes with Fish
Attractors
KDFWR regularly
creates and maintains fish attractors and habitat structures in lakes throughout
Kentucky. This list is a partial one and represents a small proportion of the
total number of fish attractors KDFWR has placed. Fish attractors come in a
wide variety of styles depending on the available materials and goals.
The main
types of fish attractors are:
|
