My best luck has been with a Black chatterbait or spinnerbait. Might also try a lipless crank.

+1 on Black Chatter Bait.
Single Colorado Blade Spinnerbait. Big Jigs.
Pretty much anything that will attract a little attention. The fish have to rely more on their lateral lines to pick up vibrations and their eyes will pick up darker colors better than light ones...JMO
I dream of a better world. A world where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned of their motives.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know when to go fishing.
