Thanks again to all who chimed in on this.

Tried a double fluke rig presented over the weeds today, along with a punch rig and beaver combo.

The double fluke rig was a bit of a pain to cast accurately, butshortening the leaders, helped.  Has anyone tried adding weight to this rig? I was using stout, EWG hooks for a little added weight. If so, where do you add the weight?

The weeds weren't super thick and punching would not have been my first choice, but once I switched to a lighter weight, it was like turning on a switch.  I think the ROF made the difference in getting bit.

I don't throw double rigs often, but when I do, I use a weighted worm hook on the bottom on. 1/16 or 1/8th oz is plenty. This helps stop the whirleygig effect when casting and improves accuracy. It does change the way the baits fall though. I suggest you try it and see what you think. You can also experiment with using splitshots on the line, but I have never done that. 

How deep would you say the fish were once you got into them, @papajoe222?

The weeds were in 14-15ft. topping out around 12ft.  The best spots on weed beds were where a mixture of different weeds, mostly pond weed mixed with hydrilla or coontail moss began, or where the weeds grew to the top and layed on the surface.   This is all from water that sat close to deeper water.

I would look for points of weeds, or indentations.
