There should be some fish off the beds by the time you get there. I slow roll or swim a Kalin grub off the bottom on flats early in the mornings that time of year. Best bite is usually very early. They seem to move to deeper water during the middle of the day. Thats the pattern that works for me close to May. If it's overcast they will stay shallow during the day. A little wind helps keep them off guard also. If that doesn't work you can always throw a worm or fluke (weightless) around laydowns. The early morning spinner bait is often hot that time of year. If all else fails live bait may save the trip. You can try main lake flats, creek flats, flat points if they are shallow. If they are deeper you could try the North side of Goat islands or the humps around them or anywhere there is a creek or river channel close to a spawning flat. I'm not expert but this is what works for me.
