Flipping jigs in heavy cover when its cloudy? Pointless?
Ive had the same problem at locating fish when it is cloudy. In attempt to become better at it i've heard that bass will stay in cover for days. so if yesterday was really sunny flipping mats and cover the next day when overcast will still catch fish.

drop shotting
you can use just about anything. i like the robo worm and manns hardnose finess worm alot too but any bait can be used on a drop shot so just match the hatch and you will catch fish. i've actually just seen a rig where you can dril a hole in a crankbaits bill and use the crankbait as a dropshot
