Drop shotting a small swimbait in a light color produced unbelievable numbers of fish, most were small but the first couple bites usually had more size, occasionally changing to a dark bait would also generate larger bites. Targeted shallower water around 6-8ft, outside weed edge with rocks. Rocks with no weeds was a no go. A simple stop and go retrieve worked slowly would get bit nearly every cast.
