Thinking about fishing a night tournament out there later this month. Never seen the lake. Wondering about what areas to stay clear of when running. Stumpy and shallow areas. Don't want to tear anything up. They are putting in by the dam. Any info appreciated. Thanks

There is a run on the opposite bank but it is at your own risk. The whole center of the lake is full of stumps so if idle or fast idle for sure at night. I think if you search, there is a Google map that show the basic idea of how to run it.

I was running that side once and barely knicked the skeg on a stump. Made the old butthole pucker up!

The night tournaments have been won with 9-14 pounds. Anything deep is swallowed up with sand bass, so I would stick shallow and just fish. Flip a Texas rig at everything and you should catch some fish
