Questions people ask about Green River Lake
Answered from the same readings as the rest of this page. Where we have no basis for an answer, there is no entry — spot-by-spot local knowledge is not something we can claim for Green River Lake.
- Is it worth fishing Green River Lake today?
- 6 out of 10 — biting. Worth a cast. The strongest stretch is 5:03 AM–7:03 AM. That number is worked out fresh each morning from the solunar windows, the pressure trend, the water level.
- What time should you fish Green River Lake?
- Today's major windows run 5:03 AM–7:03 AM and 5:26 PM–7:26 PM, with minor windows at 12:50 PM–1:50 PM and 10:56 PM–11:56 PM. Sunrise is 7:00 AM and sunset 8:29 PM. A major landing on first or last light is the stretch worth setting an alarm for.
- What is the water temperature at Green River Lake?
- No gauge on Green River Lake measures water temperature. US reservoir gauges report height, not temperature — so rather than estimate it, this page leaves it out and leans on the windows and the pressure trend instead.
- What is the water level at Green River Lake right now?
- 675.68 ft, read at 3:10 AM from USGS station 03305990. Over 24 hours it is down 0.08 ft.
- Can you eat the fish you catch in Green River Lake?
- That is a health question and it belongs with the state, not with us. KY publishes fish consumption advisories through its health or environmental agency, and those are the ones that count. We give no eating advice.
- Do you need a licence to fish Green River Lake?
- Yes. A Kentucky fishing license covers this water, required from age 16. KDFWR sets the rules and is the one that counts.

- USGS 03305990 GREEN RIVER LAKE NEAR CAMPBELLSVILLE, KY 3:10 AM
A Corps of Engineers reservoir near Campbellsville, gauged by USGS on the lake itself (parameter 62614, the pool surface). No temperature sensor at the gauge.
No one types these in by hand. If a source goes quiet, the page says so instead of showing you yesterday.
