During his slow time of year with high water and muddy waters, is trolling with crankbaits or spinnerbait recommended?
I prefer using a fly rod but will resort to any level to catch a fish.
How about using rubber worms, Texas rig style?
Trolling when all else fails?

I spoke with a guy last week who was catching some nice peacocks while trowling crank baits... that was the only way he was catching.
On Saturday I fished with a guy that is a pro bass angler. He was catching largemouth using worms and drop shot rigs in the tree tops and heavy brush. He was amazing.

Go to Google and type in " drop shot rig " and all kinds of stuff comes up...

We didn't have any 4 inch plastic worms so Chris just broke off the last 4 inches of a longer one. I don't even remember the color.
But boy, when you twitch that thing it has some nice action.
Chris was also using a regular 6 or 8 inch plastic worm. rigged Texas Style..... a bullet shape weight on the line and the worm hook point stuck back into the worm to make it weedless.
We just pulled up to a fallen tree and he tossed the worm right into the top of it and then started letting out line and the worm drop strait down.
