I was thinking about going to Bartlett at night although I don't know the lake. I guess.it might just be a learning experience for me. Thanks!

I would launch at yellow cliffs and head up river. You got echo cove crappie cove and jack cove. Also their are many other smaller cover along the way. Just be carful cruzing around shore with big motor. Last Friday right before dark I hit a big boulder with my motor. 20 ft from shore. Anyways all those coves if launch from yellow cliffs are to your left. And you always got cats bay. Just across the launch left of the cliffs. They all have been productive for me in past some more than others. Ill try and post a good pic of lake from launch to those coves

It's the cove in between the the two. It's a smaller cove than jack or echo but I was in their Friday night and loaded with bait fish and blues. Here is pic. Never caught a crappie out of thou.
