Trolling anglers should target major coves and creek arms, with baits trolled near the surface. While top-lining 150-200' behind the boat, try using plugs that dive to different depths to locate the fish. A Rapala Shad Rap and a Rapala Jointed Minnow are to great bait to use. The Shad Rap has a larger bill and will dive deeper than the Jointed Minnow. Also, a large bait will draw strikes from a long distance, and even smaller planted fish will strike these large lures. Another technique that has been producing limits is a crawler fished behind a teardrop shaped flasher.  Bank fishing and still-fishing from a boat has produced the most fish. Walking the bank as you cast will help you find the fish. A 1/4-3/8 ounce Kastmaster seem to be the most productive "chuck and wind" lure. Make sure to change speeds. Bass bite is slow. \
