"Max" ... Buck Creek is on the far Eastern end of the lake, and actually runs into the Cumberland River well East of Burnside State Park .... so you'll be almost on the opposite end of the lake from Buck Creek. But ... no worries, as you'll have several large creeks to check out that branch out behind Jamestown Marina & the Cumberland State Dock.

The rains forecast between now & then, just may put some color in the water ... so you may want to go well back into those creeks to start, and work your way out. Not sure where the fish are as far as their spawning run goes, but I'd still approach the banks (esp the clear water areas) fishing from deep to shallow.

Haven't fished Cumberland for Crappie during this time of year, in a long time ... but, I do know that small pockets with wood cover & dirty water "can" hold a number of good sized White Crappie. There may even be some Black Crappie still holding in the shallows, which is why I recommend fishing the shallows from a distance.
