So I find fish supended in the top of trees/brush with my side imaging unit. Now what? Anyone willing to share in techniques to catch these fish.

What depth? I'd be thinking about banging through there with a crankbait.

crankbait might work... lipless or otherwise... spinner bait slow rolled...

Deep crank to get the more active fish then switch to a soft plastic like a Senko or Fluke dead sticked in the tree and be sure to let it soak pretty much motion less on a semi tight line for as long as you can stand it and then let it soak some more.

Way back in the day I found some suspended in tree in 30ft of water, and they would just hammer pop r's lobbed into the top.

T-rig with a light weight. They could be crappie so try a crappie jig.
