Fishing Cartoons

My new fishing cartoons. I try to be original and funny, but it doesn't always work. I hope you enjoy and remember, Life is short, get away from the big screen and get on a big stream!  



Check-out my lake, river and bay maps. I hide things in the waters of my maps such as fish/tiny mermaid and folks love to search for them. I call my maps "treasured maps" because folks have that special body of water that they treasure. These maps make great gifts for the lake house owner, lake lover, or fisherman. I have over two hundred on my website that can be purchased right from the site, or I can do custom and personalizes lake, river or bay maps, too. If you would like to see more and read about my treasured maps go to LeoLakes.com

Beautiful Kentucky Lake Wall Map

Not long ago, I finished an overall map of Kentucky Lake that includes Lake Barkley and Land Between the Lake.


If you look closely, you may find a tourist town named Grand Rivers, which is between Lake Barkley on the Cumberland River and Kentucky Lake on the Tennessee River. This little town is becoming a destination with shops, restaurants and even entertainment.  
A great place to eat in Grand Rivers is Patti's an 1880's themed restaurant. It started in 1977 and has grown into the top tourist restaurant destination in Kentucky. Try their specialty, pork chops. I have had them and they're great.

Patti's is a unique and interesting place with not only a restaurant, but many shops to discover. Check it out at: http://www.pattis-settlement.com/index.htm. Also, near Grand Rivers is Green Turtle Bay Marina and Resort located on the waters of Lake Barkley. Its a good place to launch a boat or have dinner.
