Lake Carnico is a 114-acre (0.46 km2) reservoir in Nicholas County, Kentucky. It was constructed in 1962.[1] The name Lake Carnico came alive from a name contest that was held by Charles Cox from July 27,1961 to August 5, 1961. [2] Departments such as the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Kentucky Highway Department, and the "Chain of Lakes" state legislation, built a dam and started building properties to surround Lake Carnico. [3] The geography aspect about Lake Carnico is that the water is fresh and the type of fish that live in the lake are Sunfish, Channel Catfish, Flathead and much more.[4] The name of the group of citizens who found Lake Carnico is unknown till this day.
