Welcome to the forum, Eric!

I haven't fished Conroe in years. For a murky lake I would go with bright colors that are easier for the fish to see, big, bulky jigs that will move a lot of water and a spinnerbait with a big, single Colorado blade.

Here is a site where I bet you could get some specific info on Conroe:

I always have luck using bright colored lures in murky water...

also, think spinnerbaits & poppers... murky water doesnt allow great sun penitration, so the bass a lot of times, stay in relatively shallow water.

use colorado or colorado & willow combination spinnerbait

on the poppers... use Rebel Pop-R
(usually medium sized) also, a quality buzzbait is great,
put a trailor hook on those to catch more fish

will be glad to answer more questions,

Also, research... research...& research...

buy books and ask the older guys about bassing,

they are walking encyclopedias to success! ;D
