If the water is as clear as it was when I was fishing, and the wind was kicking up as it has been a lot recently, throw the most natural looking jerkbaits you can find in about 6-10 feet above the boulders and new growing weeds. I found lots of success with the matte perch and clear laker colors as they are great imitators of their forage.
