JeffP,
If you are going to Malone and will be fishing from the shore and walking through the weeds. I suggest that you get some real good tick repellent.
Had a co-worker get Rocky Mnt. Fever a couple years ago from there.

If you go to Barren. I would like to suggest that you fish the spillway. It is easy access and the fishing is most of the time pretty good.
Good Luck
