Well once you get off the main lake there is not many boats that play and stuff if you are looking for fishing...I come from the Hindman area and Martin area to get to the lake....however I love yatesville it was a good lake but I would rather go to pville now....and it isnt a 45 minute drive from yatesville to paintsville it is only about 30 if that....driving 65 though...

I used to go fish at the Magoffin end of the Paintsville lake, around the Jellico area, and i did pretty good. Yea, I just guessed at 45 minute because it takes me 30 from downtown Paintsville to the crossroads on 23 at louisa. It is about another 10 minutes to the main lake ramp from 23.
