Kentucky Crossword Puzzle #KYWEB001 In the puzzle below, a clue pertaining to Russell County is used. Although seven Kentucky counties share Lake Cumberland, Russell County is home to the Lake Cumberland State Resort Park. One of the top tourist attractions in Kentucky, the 60,000 plus acre lake, with 1255 miles of shoreline, is considered one of the best fishing spots in the Eastern United States, and is among the top nationwide for striped bass fishing. Anglers at Lake Cumberland also successfully fish for largemouth and smallmouth bass, Kentucky bass, (our official state fish), channel catfish, walleye, crappie, and bluegill. According to the US Army Corps of Engineers, which manages the lake, the Lake Cumberland area attracts more than four million, (4,000,000), visitors annually. Besides the great fishing, Lake Cumberland is also a favorite among boaters, skiers, campers, and vacationers in general. Golf enthusiasts enjoy the 9-hole course at the park, and an 18-hole par 72 public course nearby -- The Links at Lily Creek. Russell County is also home to the Wolf Creek National Fish Hatchery, which produces all the trout, (brown and rainbow), stocked annually in Kentucky streams.
