Depends on whether the fish on on top of the grass or under it.
"..The pleasantist angling is to see the fish
Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

I used the term "punching" because i really dont know what to call it. I am throwing from the bank about 25-30 yards out and the hydrilla comes all the way up to about a foot below the surface. And the hydrilla is very thick. And these fish are out in the hydrilla and i dont know wether i should use a very heavy weight and get the bait in the hydrilla or just use a very light weight and drag it on top of the hydrilla. Suffix832 casts better. 65lb braid, heavy action rod, 1-1/4 ounce Sniper Jig with Reactions Innovations Beaver. That's all you need to put a hurting on them. Hop the bait.  https://m.facebook.com/Hi-Yah-BAIT-CO-205876213100659/

I will try over the top first with multiple different lures. Fluke, senko, spinner bait, chatter bait, etc. If that doesn't bring them up, I'll try to drag my spinner bait through the grass as slow as I can and jerk it free of the grass if it gets hung up. If that's not working, I'll go through it with the lightest weight I can get away with.
If I'm fishing hydrilla, I have confidence the fish are there, just have to figure out what will trigger the bite.

Throw a Booyah frog over the top and let them come up and get it.
