That's a good pick Mr. Ray, they will be hard to beat! I don't know if me and SYG can compete with some of the more experienced anglers on this lake like them and a couple others, but there is only one way to learn the lake and see what happens. I have been looking at the map alot, and it's ALOT of water to cover. Gone starting looking in the rain this weekend though.
