It’s hard to get a bit right now. A small swim bait on an underspin was the only thing I got a bite on

Work it fast in open water and pause near the edges of grass clumps. Or do the opposite. You really can’t do it wrong

Went to Moodus Reservoir on a cloudy day to do some bank fishing along the bridge. Lots of lily pads so I knew there would be fish there. What worked best were Texas rigged 3 inch senkos casting near the lily pads and letting it sink down. There weren’t many fish in the open water so all of my strikes were on the initial drop. I would cast to all the areas you can before moving on to a different section. Lots of submerged vegetation in the area, so prioritize top water and weedless lures. I ended up with 4 Largemouth and 1 Chain Pickerel.

If you see little bluegill around wood it’s just a matter of time. You’re in the right spot.
