There is a big wave of spawners coming in. Find a bay with feeder creeks about 3/4 of the way back. Then flip the buck brush, willow trees and anything that has some cover. Hard bottom was a plus. If the sun is high try to put your bait in the shady part of the cover. If the bite doesn't come right away reel in and pitch to something else.
