Yes….rocks close to a sandy bottom was a key.
I remember looking for the big isloated rocks on the shore line….that was the key.
I was amazed how far the smallies traveled to hit the slamming shad.

Dad you forgot to mention how peculiar the fishing was when the bite seemed to pick up, not only in the mornings sometimes, but at high noon. Also didn’t we discover that the wind on the lake played a role in the topwater action, especially near the rocky shoals. Greg and I found that having a little wind to produce drift in the boat over a shallow sandy bar with sporadic clusters of rocks and weeds was the best “action” spots, but the best sized fish were a little deeper off of those long reef sections in about 6 foot of water. I totally agree that the top-water bite with those slammin shads was par none, my back still hurts Haha!!!
