Found a big school of good perch over 10"s using fatheads targeting the best remaining live grass. I would rig a drop shot setup and pull the weight into a weed line and the perch would come over and eat the minnow right on the grass edge while the weight was hung up.

Perch
We found some active birds and walleye were underneath the schools of little perch. Hopping blades or swimbaits off the bottom and then letting them fall was the key.

Largemouth were holding very tight to newly green reeds in maybe a foot of stained water. My derby partner was also catching them in the same areas with a Texas rigged creature bait of a similar size and color. It felt like they were hitting it on the fall. You would lift up and there would be weight and your line would swim away.

The key was finding chunk rock or big boulders or rock to sand transition. It was like clock work. Find one of those areas along or surrounding a secondary point and drift the ned rig or hop the tube or pull the swimbait along the bottom, moving slowly, and once you felt the transition or pulled free of the boulder just wait for it.
