Same kind of water as Silverwood. Senko or some kind of shiny spinner. You could try a rattletrap but I’m not sure how much cover there is in that lake and I wouldn’t want you to lose them.

Hey guys, I want to add, this lake and another near me are notoriously pressured. Fish rarely bite if anything. I’ve only caught three since July. I’ve thrown everything plus the sink. Also this lake is quite deep. Like 70+ at the deepest. Knowing that, would you change your answer?

If bluegill are a major baitfish I’d definitely try a swim jig in a bluegill (ish) color, same thing can be done for crappie. Other good options would be a chatterbait, larger profile bass jig, or a bluegill swim bait.
My personal confidence bait for just getting bit is a shaky head, works good as long as there’s not a load of grass. Drag it, hop it, shake it. It all works just fine out what seems to work best for you. Elaztec worms are really nice on a shaky head cause they’re so buoyant (if using an elaztec worm get the ZMan SMH shaky head, they work best for those plastics).
Another bait I really like are finesse jigs. Recently I’ve been experimenting with the Picasso Little Spotty (very expensive, small profile jig) with a ZMan TRD (a ned rig bait) and it has been great. Super good downsized profile that the spotted bass around me seem to love. Obviously if you don’t want to spend so much you could get a small finesse jig from literally any other brand and probably get similar results, the Little Spotty is just my favorite for a few different reasons.

Probably a tube or Ned or something like that. Doesn’t look like there’s shit to key on so just searching along the bottom until you found something would probably be beneficial.

What’s the local bait fish species?
What wouldn’t I throw!?
Run a frog on the shore line
Lipless or a jerk bait
Rubber worm, cotton candy color.
