There is a big wave of spawners coming in. Find a bay with feeder creeks about 3/4 of the way back. Then flip the buck brush, willow trees and anything that has some cover. Hard bottom was a plus. If the sun is high try to put your bait in the shady part of the cover. If the bite doesn't come right away reel in and pitch to something else.

Finish 38 overall in the Toyota Series on Kentucky and Barkley Lake. I caught my fish with a Carolina Rig with a brushhog and Dragging a Texas Rig RageBug around stumps and laydowns. Weather changed a little and got cold so the fish pulled back out to the lead in banks head back to spawning flats. Hard bottom is a must.
