Fishing Tips For Clear Water

[learning]

My experience fishing for Largemouth Bass has been in murky lakes with alot of weeds, logs, etc. I got access to a reservoir with very clear water, alot of rocks around the edges, and some but very little vegetation. I can see alot of LM Bass swimming in there. but have only been able to catch a few on a crawdad lure. Any tips for this type of lake?

Drop-shot, and cranks. But my first suggestion is what you've been fishing, crawdad baits. Of course I'm never afraid to throw a spinnerbait either. A decent swim bait could also be productive.

Long cast and the lightest line you can get away with, One golden rule: if you can see the fish they can see you. Try to use lures that are more natural looking in color to the base forage of the lake, flourocarbon lines may help quite a bit too.
