Welcome to the site. Not really a whole lot of info, such as WHERE you are would be helpful. But I like spinnerbaits, topwater, and plastics in and around weeds. If by dark you mean it has low visiblity than a Single colorado bladed spinnerbait, or a shallow diving crank(Mann's -1) with internal rattles, along with lizards, and zipper style of worms. Anything that moves more water, or has vibrations/noise would work well. But once you get into the weeds, then the bait being brought through the weeds themselves will attract the fish, so the rattles aren't a necessity. I also would suggest a good scent to help the plastics move through the weeds better. I actually like any cooking spray with Garlic flavoring.
Lizards

Welcome Southern, you'll find this forum friendly and informative. Enjoy.
I'm with Lizards. Dark or murky waters a great places to work spinnerbaits with a single colorado. Jigs with rattles and zipper type or paddle / curly tail texas rigged worms are also good. In the darker water, noise and water displacement are keys to entice a bass to bite. If grass is a real issue try a floating worm on a carolina rig or the old standby, the rattle trap. Good Luck.

Plastics with little weight so as not to get hung in the grass. Will do well I assure you.

Is the grass closer to the bottom or on the surface? If it was on the bottom I'd get a crankbait that goes to that depth and knock it off the bridge pilings, if on the surface, weightless plastics.

ummm..........i guess i didnt read it correctly,i didnt see the grass part.this changes every thing.if the grass is near the bottom i suggest a 5 in stickbait wheightless,actually make that c-rig lizard in the bottom grass,and the stick
in the top grass.try to get a floating lizard.strike king 3x lizards float very well.but before rebasser says anything,they will start sticking after they have been in the water for a period of time.so have the extras ready
