  • Kentucky's Lakes and Their Namesm
    • .._ < ~KENTUCKY'S LAKES AND THEIR NAMESM William A. Withington (University of Kentucky) (Paper presented at the Second Blue Ridge Onomastics Symposium, Roanoke, Virginia, May 16, 1987 ) ABSTRACT. A set of 107 major and lesser lakes situated in all of the state's major regions are the base in an analysis of the diversity of lakes and names of lakes in Kentucky. With a few e x ceptions, Kentucky lakes are artificial created by damming of streams beginning with Herrington, the first large lake, in 1925. Lake names have been grouped into fourteen categories. Three-fourths of the lakes have names in the three categories of Stream (30); community (27); and person (22). Terrain (5) and Administrative Unit (5) are the two most frequent names used among the other 28 Kentt1cky lakes in this study set. Kentucky ' s present landsca pe gives the appearance of a very well-watered terrain with many rivers, lakes and ponds. However, e x cept for a few water bodies in the lower Ohio and Mississippie River lowlands of westernmost Kentucky, the lakes are reservoirs or "tanks" --The U.S. Geological Survey's term--created artificially by damming s treams. Prior to the creation of Kentucky' s first large lake, Lake Herrington in 1925, mos t were small, usually associated with gristmills in need of local waterpower or with communities establishing water supply reservoirs . Beginning with Lake Herrington, c onstructed by Kentucky Ut ilities for hydroelectric power on the lower Di x River, a large number of lakes have been created in all parts of the state.

  • January 12, 2018 Kentucky Waterfowl Ground Counts Location Number
    January 12, 2018 Kentucky Waterfowl Ground Counts This is the winter waterfowl ground count for January 8-12, 2018. We have finally had a week or so of warm temps and a little rain this week, melting some of the ice left by the two week long freeze that locked up most of the state’s wetlands. Our WMA’s are running wells and ice eaters if available, in an effort to open up some hunt units, but with 4-6 inches of ice it is a slow process. Ducks have found the newly open holes of water and are using them to feed and loaf. Moist soil plants still look great across the state. Planted crops favored well in most places, and there is still plenty of food available to ducks and geese, other than what is still covered by ice. Some of the winter wheat fields planted on our WMA’s were heavily used during the freeze, but plenty of other food sources are still available. Another freeze is forcast to hit Friday night and persist through next week. Expect many holes to refreeze. When hunting this weeked and next week, plan for the cold, and take extra precautions to stay safe. Getting wet in these conditions can prove deadly. If you are hunting from a boat, be sure you have and are using your life jackets! The second segment of duck season is now open and will remain open until Sunday, January 28. The goose season will remain open until Monday, February 15, 2018. The Western KY youth waterfowl dates are February 3-4, 2018.
