The sad thing is we watched a fellow from Tompkinsville boat 6 and lose 2 on the same point we had the bites on. The biggest was a 21" 5lbs smallie. He tried to let us catch a fish he even switched sides of the point with us and that's where he caught the big one. Oh well, at least we saw some fish. We fished the main lake points?
Don't know where you put in at but the One Stop in Celina opens up at 5am CST and they sell shiners as well. A little drive from Burkesville but you can also get one heck of a Pork Tenderloin biscuit for breakfast as well.
