Tried a few swimbaits and the xzone swammer bluegill colored was the winner of the day. Cast and slowly retrieve off the bottom around brush and stumps. Was catching them in the depths between 10 to 15 feet.

Partner and I got a win on the Cumberland River below Barkley Dam. We were cranking isolated cover. Rock piles, laydown, and points all came into play. This body of water is super pressured and it was important to change it up. Crank it, then swim a jig or pitch something into it. Make multiple cast to the same cover. Good luck and good fishing.
