Splatterback, not exactly sure where all in the Top 5 were - but I did hear the guys that won were fishing North Barkley with c-rigs. Talked to another team in the Top 5 that was fishing North Bark and North KY. As for us, we were mid-lake and had the same difficulty as you - we didn't have a fish over 3# either day. Lots of bites, and had to weed through alot of shorts, but not the right pattern to win on....
