Rip Rap
Cranking riprap with a Spro Rock Crawler in 6-10 of water brought a couple of bites around midday. The water was slightly stained and 44-46 degrees on the main lake. We also had a couple bites flipping a 5/8 ounce Cage Feider jig on outside channel swings in 3-5 feet of water. The key was finding near vertical laydowns.

If you find yourself struggling on Lake Delhi then be sure to tie on a Ned Rig. It doesn't seem to matter what time of the year it is, this bait will catch some fish for you. It works the best around rocky shorelines or rock piles in deeper water. Just drag it along the bottom and occasionally let it sit. Depending on you location you'll be able to catch largemouth, smallmouth, crappie, bluegill, rock bass and even some nice walleye. Green Pumpkin always seems to work.
