Ended up fishing a club tournament and found a good pattern with bass chasing schools of bait. Coupled the spinnerbait with the crankbait to generate all my bites!

On a day they should’ve been eating reaction baits, it seemed like the only place we could get bit were at the ends of deep lay downs or chunk rock that were near current breaks and also changes in bottom composition. I don’t think color was a big deal. They wanted something in there face that they could see in the super stained water.
