How I crush bass on lakes with no depth map

Just got back from Lake St. Clair and man, what a game-changer! Used to be terrified of these flat, grassy lakes with zero structure showing on my maps. But I've figured out the secret sauce: ✅ Hunt for grass lines & boulders - Bass love to suspend around ANY structure, even if it's just a rock pile or vegetation edge ✅ Follow the baitfish - No contours means bass roam deep water chasing schools of bait. Find the bait balls, find the bass! ✅ Target isolated hard spots - Shell beds and rock piles away from everything else are absolute gold mines ✅ Work the water column - These fish don't hug bottom like normal. They're floating, so fish at multiple depths My go-to setup: jighead minnow and jerkbait for the roamers, Texas rig for thick grass. Electronics help but you can feel structure changes with a Carolina rig too. Who else has conquered these intimidating flat water fisheries?
