I would be tempted to throw a jerkbait but that’s been my solution for everything lately, dosent hurt that it actually works pretty well sometimes.

 

I was just thinking that, but if the line spooks them, presenting the lure as we traditionally would may risk turning them off altogether.

 

Reeling it in like a crankbait might do the trick, though. 

the few quarries I fish around here get good responses from small spinnerbaits, smaller weightless flukes fished like a jerk bait and a KVD Sexy Dawg. 

 

none are particularly deep but id be tempted to try a lipless crankbait run along those ledges if I was in your shoes.

Great idea - I'm actually going to try a 1/4 ounce Z-Man Willowvibe tomorrow and run it along the edges a bit to see if anything happens. We've had some really warm days so I'm hoping I can catch a late season window of activity... we'll see. Thanks!
