Fishing near Covington, Kentucky

Covington is one of the Kenton County towns of Kentucky. The town itself holds nothing; the country round it does. By distance from the centre: Prisoners Lake about 1.5 miles to the west, Ohio River about 1.8 miles, Newport Reservoir about 3.0 miles to the east, Apple Hill Farm Lake about 5.3 miles plus Doe Run Creek about 7.1 miles to the south. Log jams on Doe Run Creek are worth more than any open run. The water types here vary widely. Slow water beside fast water is the place to be. Winter is a coin toss on these. It is not guaranteed from one year to the next. Prisoners Lake, the closest, runs to roughly 4 acres. Parking is recorded at Prisoners Lake. Open records for Kenton County list channel catfish, rainbow darter and bluegill. The bulk of it is impounded water rather than natural. Prisoners Lake is the one most people from Covington fish first....
