Fishing seems to be tough down at Lay lake right now but when you pull up to the right brush pile it can be lights out! My go to baits were the crock-o-gator 3/8 oz zapper jig in magic craw with a ring craw trailer also made by crock-o-gator. Electronics played a huge roll in finding the brush piles in 20+ foot of water. I was also getting bites on the Damiki armor shad on a 1/4 ounce keitech ball head jig swimming it over the piles and watching the fish come out and eat it on livescope. I also noticed that the fish were less likely to bite the closer I got with livescope so being able to see the pile at 70-80 feet was critical along with making long casts to get the fish to bite.

They were generating a little current and the fish were on rock up the river ambushing baitfish and the spinner bait was getting bit.
