I know you guys don't get that far up to fish, but I went yesterday afternoon and tore them up. The fish up there are schooling and chasing shad on the surface. I caught fish from about 3:00 till dark on topwater. A sppok was my lure of choice and a torpedo was second. I caught 5 or 6 keepres(14" on this lake) and lost count of the others. Sometimes MeltonHill can be a good way to predict what will happen in a few weeks on other lakes. It is a cold lake that is below the tailwaters of Norris Dam, so things seem to happen earlier there than other lakes.
