  1. Reality-Direct on

    It’s hard to say, personally I would hike around and observe the water and the land. Is there anything floating in the water like bugs, frogs, etc? Are there terrestrials (grass hoppers, spiders, ants)? What is in the water, are there minnows, larvae, crawfish? Lastly if you can observe what the fish are eating. Are they eating off the top or are they down below. Based on this information search for lures or flys that will match what they are eating.

  2. Agree with the other suggestions. I’d also add the following:

    1. Finesse paddletail like a 6th sense divine, rigged weedless on a belly weighted EWG (maybe a 3/0)

    2. Fluke, weightless on a 5/0 EWG

    3. 1/8oz roostertail, just keep it over the grass

  3. Depending on depth, I’d use a crank bait up to that 6-8 ft depth mark. Maybe pitch a jig and pig into pockets of cover around the 2-3 foot mark. Or cast and retrieve a spinner up to the bank and bring back to the boat. All ways can land some good fish
