I found water 56 degrees and stained, and also 51 and clear, both areas have grass near flats and deep water with stick ups, which would you fish and how would you fish the grass? 5-10ft deep

Wacky rig? But in stained water? Seems like a clear water method

Wack attack was what worked best today in stained water (it was the warmest where I was fishing) I used a zipper type worm that was half dark purple with the other half orange/red. Other murky water tactics (bladed swim jigs/orange, gold, chartreuse spinnerbaits, dark colored jigs failed to produce much)

If the water has been stained for a few days the fish seem like they get used to it. Chartreuse with gold double willow leaf spinnerbait will usually get em. By stained what do you mean? Like how far down can you see a flashy bait? If it's more than 18 inches I'd fish that before I did clear water.

Or weedless wacky jig?

Wacky rig? But in stained water? Seems like a clear water method I'm not a professional by any means but I have caught bass in stained water all the time. All I need is an excuse to use it. Of course it works well in clear water to.

Give me the stained water, hack attack jig,Cordell crank, 1/2 chartreuse hildy with 1 bronze blade 4-4.5, Drop shot asst swim baits..And yes the teaser rig is a under utilzed technique..Interesting with a wacky..Throw a senko like that, see if it gets larger bites..Also if you can find gremlin pinch weights, try with your rig..They are bullet shaped...Good luck..If it aint broke, dont fix it..
