We went to Reelfoot last summer. For what you have stated, I would would suggest Weiss lake. I don't know anything about it, honestly I've never heard of it, but I can tell you that nothing you need is near Reelfoot. It is a 40 minute ride to the nearest city and the only shopping was Walmart. We stayed at the state park campground and it was nice. There were 2 (I think) restaurants there, not counting the one at the resort. The locals don't seem to care for tourists, and know matter what you've read online, don't expect a good fishing experience. The "bait shops" we found were quick to inform us the the bait they sold was for the local guides and that we needed to hire them if we wanted bait. Our waitress asked us why we were eating at that particular restaurant, and if we knew where the Sonic and DQ were. The Asian carp have decimated the gills and crappie. In 4 days we caught 6 catfish. All anyone was catching was catfish.
