Default Need help, reservoirs

I got out and fished a couple of reservoirs last weekend. This is the first time fishing south of Indiana except one time from shore in Florida. I caught some fish but the lakes are not at all what I expected.

First there is little to no vegetation. There's no weeds and I only found pads in one little spot. I believe that the bottom is mainly clay. About the only structure I found were some stumps but they were pretty shallow (<3') and didn't seem to have fish on them. There were also very few laydowns or anything near shore in the water. Both lakes were only about 20 feet deep or so at the deepest. Both had a creek channel in them but I didn't see anything outstanding in the channels that would hold fish.

I felt really lost out there! On top of this it was really the first time of the year that I was "bass" fishing since the season is still closed in NY where I came from. Any help or tips would be appreciated since I know these lakes have good bass populations in them. It is full summer down here in Mississippi too with water temps 82-84*.
