My favorite way is using jigs. You can also use bottoms walkers with a spinner of some kind behind them or crankbaits/Rapala's. Good luck they should be biting good then. :tup:

I'd still be trying to find flats from 10 - 40 feet and feel out where there hanging and then really work that depth.  I like a bottom walker with a double whammey in orange, yellow, or chartreuse. Then put a big crawler on the end of the double whammey.  Drift along the flats or motor mouch real slow. Good luck and have fun.
I've slowed down enough in my old age to finally let the game catch up to me

I have the same question for later in June, week of the 28th.
Not sure where we'll be....any website familiar with this lake?

Later on try to find points coming out, ledges, the edge of weed beds and other good ambush points for a predatory wolf to ambush its prey.  Thats where they will be.  Oh, also the 200 other places I forgot to mention.

I was over there a month ago in Swahalla Basin ane the lake was way up. Hopefully they dropped the level some!!
