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.

Fished the first day of the Toyota Series on Barkley Lake. Was 21st after day 1 and found most of my fish on lead in banks that were relating to wood cover and rock banks. Females seem to not made the push yet to spawn where I was at mostly buck bass. Had to fish really slow and be patient.
