It's a tough lake to fish, I fished there about 15 or more times this year and only had one really good day , let me tell you it was good too. The fish are in there, just getting them to bite is another story. As far as Friday night tournaments, I haven't been in the last couple weeks but sometimes it only takes two or three fish to win. Good luck and hopefully you'll get that good day soon, because it's kept me going back ever since!
