I would say with the cold temps they are calling for it will hard for it to thaw out. I would say postpone it. I attached the forecast for Tiptonville.

Okay folks, we need your input. We have a tournament scheduled at Reelfoot next Saturday, Feb 1st. We were there yesterday and there still a good bit of ice. In fact, when we drove through the campground, there were people walking on the ice between the trees. We didn't see any ramps on the south end that you could launch from to get to open water. The forecast is showing temps below freezing both day and night until Thursday, when it's supposed to be 41. I don't think we can expect a significant amount of ice melt between now and Saturday, so, here's the dilemma: do we postpone the tournament, or do we keep the tournament date and change the location to Paris or Pickwick?

Postpone to a later date!
Showing 80 to 100% rain for pickwick the 1st. But the winds not showing to be bad around 10 MPH. Looked at some of the water shed lakes where yesterday. And most of those were covered with ice. You may see Ice on some of Yellow creek by this weekend. But if you change it to pickwick let me know. And if I can find someone to fish it with me. I will try my best to fish it.
