First time one the lake this year. I thought the fish was a little further along but seemed to be still in prespawn mode. The smaller fish were up shallow. Big girls were out in lead in banks but still a little finicky. Shakey head worked but didn't catch any size.

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.
