Killum, I guess you must have been doing something wrong at Reelfoot. Having fished all three lakes (Reelfoot, Barkley, and Kentucky) all my life, I have to say that the average size of Reelfoot Lake bluegill has historically always been better than Ky or Barkley. Probably still is even though I'll admit that in the last few years bluegill fishing on both of the big lakes has really improved.
