If you are dead set on reelfoot in May. I do guided trips on reelfoot and can put you on some for a day if you would like. I don't charge near the amount of blue bank or some of the other guides. The middle of May is my favorite time personally for catching crappie on Reelfoot and can easily show you how to do it in one day so you can have a successful trip for the rest of your time. I also do guided trips on Kentucky lake if you decide on that path. Just PM on here and I will get back with you as soon as I can. Thanks and good fishing
