Man I was having real good luck about 2 months ago in there. I was bass fishing. I killed em on pads early then would get on the trees, and submerged tree tops right out in front if the boat ramp, after the sun came on up, and used a chartreuce blueback crankbait 8ft diver and let it bump off the timber. Caught alot of fish. It would b mixed bag like that. Would catch white bass, largemouth, drum, and some whopper crappie. I never tried vertical jigging it. And its too stumpy to spider rig or troll crankbaits. And better not plane out on big motor either unless u are wanting to use ur insurance on ur boat. If u have side imaging graph you can find the fish schooled up and have a good time in there. When cranking I would stay in the 7-11 foot range.
