I haven't fished Barkley this August but I have always done well on shallow flats early and late in the day on surface and spinner baits. Are you fishing main lake flats or flats in the outer parts of bays? I find fish on both but as time passes I seem to find the baitfish moving more into the bays.

main lake flats with shad.
I have found the same thing. I kept thinking the fish wre going deeper, bit I could not find them. Went very shallow out of frustration, and started catching again. It has been like that for at least three weeks for me.
I've stuck them on finesse worms w/ pegged texas rig. 4 a.m. to 9 a.m. around 4' up in the slews and slop nothin over 4-5 lbs.
