Ledges
Found a big school of fish around 15 ft of water on a drop off, tried a crankbait and chatterbait with no success, so I switched to a dropshot. First cast got hit immediately and we pulled up a 6 pound striper. We were able to get a couple smaller ones after that.

It was a day of hunting in the grass, ticking the tops of submerged vegetation with the chatterbait got them to come out and bite!
