Hard Jerkbaits

Boulders
Soft and hard jerk baits on shallow flats adjacent to deep-breaks produce consistently for both numbers and size. I rig a Zoom Fluke and super fluke on a VMC HD Wide Gap hook (3/0 or 4/0) on a Dobyn's Champion XP 683 SF spinning rod with a Daiwa Fuego 3000. My hard jerk baits vary in brands but I primarily throw MegaBass Vision 110s this time of year on a Dobyn's Sierra 683C casting rod with Tatula SV TW 103. Varied retrieves work depending on mood of the fish and conditions.

Minnows
working deeper outside weed lines where weeds to rock met. Find the rock to weeds and you can find the fish. Best depths were anywhere from 10ft down to 20ft. Found some really good healthy coontail on off shore humps next to rock seemed to produce the best fish.

Humps
Working it back with short pops of the rod tip generated reaction bites. 1/2 ounce jig head helped when fishing it in 20 FOW and to get longer casts while casting into a 8-10mph wind with bait casting tackle. This wasn't one of the bigger bass, but was the first and it choked it deep, which was encouraging since they didn't seem interested in much else.

Deep weed lines. Piked liked them too unfortunately as they took a couple of set ups.

Fish were hanging around 12 feet of water, where nice green weeds were present. Had to move the jig really slow to get the bites. Did not get many bites, bit the bites that I was able to get were quality fish.
Panfish / Bluegill
