Fished Barren all day Saturday and probably caught 30-35 fish. Only had 5 keepers but all five were decent fish. 5 fish sack was about 12 lbs. Fishing was tough until 1:30 then they turned on. Saw a lot of bigger fish cruising in the main lake cuts. All fish came on a shakey head and smoke purple tube. Bite was different, never really felt the bite, fish were hitting it on the fall right up next to the flooded brush. Was a good day though for the first time on Barren.
