Fish the pockets just off the main lake next to bluff walls that has water running in them from the rains or had water running in them. The water temps should be a bit higher in the backs and you may find baitfish schooled up in there trying to warm up a bit and the big girls will not be far behind. Find the clearest water possible for the fly and if stained, probably so, make sure Chartreuse is in your jig color scheme somewhere. Fish slow. If too stained for the fly then crankbait the same areas slow, Luhr Jensen Hot Lips 1/4 oz, or one that will get down to 10-14 feet or so.
