I would shoot for the southern end of the lake. Maybe down around Murray.

The lake is shallower there (albeit it might make a negligble difference) and farther south (again perhaps a neglible difference) so it might warm earlier and offer better fishing.

You need to be open to the idea that the wind might preclude you from getting out on the main lake and it might be necessary to trailer to another ramp in order to fish a different bay. Plus, if you watched the Bassmaster classic you know this, one bay or creek arm might be the hot spot on a particular day or week.

Good luck with your trip down.
