Severely Clear

Spent about 5 hours on the river yesterday.
The water is cold and severely clear.
We could see the bottom easily in 6 feet.
Hunderts and hunderts of fish visible.
Big schools of 6” and larger shad.  Lots of suckers, carp, and sauger.
Tried topwater for a while.  Watched one smallmouth follow it for 3 casts, and finally he slowly bit on it.
Switched to a small white curly-tail jig and caught 3 more bass.
My neighbor said I could catch sauger on the jig, but it didn’t happen yesterday.
