All I can say is look around for trasition areas. close to deep water. thats where I've been getting most of my fish. I'm not familiar with most of the lake around here but I've been learning. I must have changed lures 10 times this past weekend before I found some thing they would take. Last week it was jigs and brushhawgs. This week it was 4'' worm on a shakey head. And the wind blown rough shore seemed to produce more than calm water. Also since most of the lakes are up they seemed to be relating to where the original or normal shore line would be. I hope this helps..
