Spent most of day on Rayburn prior to the Big Bass Splash and it was good fishing. Best luck for size was CR lizard with 2' leader, 1/2 oz wt, 8-10 feet deep near points or grass lines with deeper water nearby. Green pumpkin was the ticket and I stayed on the south end. Slow and patient was what worked best also. Lots of 3-5 lb fish with a few smaller mixed in. Ayish Bayou was good....I'm not in tourney and trying to help anyone who doesn't get to Rayburn often. Good luck!
