Big bites can be tough to come by, but focus on vegetation with rocks near by. Fish were located in 15 to 20 feet of water. Clip the tops of the weeds with a DT 10 natural patterns seem to work best as the lake is very clear. I use a 12lb flurocarbon with low stretch so I can rip the bait easily. Drop shots and jig worms will also catch fish.
