Anything is possible, I have in the past using crankbaits, carolina rigs, worms. A dropshot should also work.

Whatever color that matches the forage fish in whatever lake you're fishing, like perch and trout.

Deep end of the dock, but don't pass up the shallow ends either.

Take a raincoat, it's raining. Get the water temp and let us know what it is.

Looks like a rain cloud/storm going over the lake right now.

I like to start fishing smaller lakes this time of year. Pretty much all ponds and lakes have lmb and the smaller the water the faster it warms.

Try tossing senkos at larson lake. I always catch my first lmb of the year there. Theres one dock on this pond. I have pulled atleast 20+ 3 pounders from under it. It has lilly pads all around it in summer and they sit on the edge of the pad line early in the year you cant see the pads but trust me they are starting to grow and thats where the food is gonna be.
