I would also look at green river lake. it is closer than the others. Itmcan be hot that time of year. If your stayig close to the ville lime that you could guage the weather and lake conditions.

thanks. I haven't ruled out green or barren. It's just my buddy has never caught a smallmouth and I know those 3 lakes are full of them. I know green and barren has some good numbers as well.

If you are not dead set on smallmouth. It would be a no brainer for me. Barren no doubt. We have wore them out on Good Friday. Spinner baits and Crankbaits around bluff walls.Awesome!

Interesting. I was there around that time last year and it was the worst day of fishing I had all year. I was fishing very shallow as it appeared they were on beds, surprised they were suspending on bluff walls that time of year. Thanks for the tip.

Barren isn't out of the question. Thanks. We aren't dead set on anything really, we may end up crappie fishing before it's said and done. I just figured it would be easier to hook up on a smallie then before they went deep.

I would take Laurel off your list if you have never fished it before. It can be a very humbling experience even if you fish it regularly.
