This is the situation, a power plant lake with hot water discharge.  I was there yesterday and there are a lot of fish chasing bluegill on the bank.  There is a water visibility of about 8 feet or so.  It is very clear for around here.  My question is what would you fish with.  I was thinking about a green pumpkin senko and a scrounger jog head with a green pumpkin skirt.  Let me know what you think.

Personally would start with a crankbait, and a spinnerbait. If the fish are actively feeding and chasing bait no need to start with a slow technique like a senko. Go for the active fish, it the action slows then switch to the senko or jig.

Try a sunfish/blugill swimbait maybe a 4 or 5". Fast and slow retrieve.

Try a lipless crankbait.

I would go with a swim jig, or maybe a swimming a keel weighted Rooster, either one in a green pumpkin color.

What would you guess the water temp is?

A crank or spinnerbait are good choices but it seems like that is some clear water for both techniques. I would go with a paddletail or soft jerkbait. What is the temp and depth?

I only know of one place that has water that clear around me and spinnerbaits don't get bit well.

I think a soft swimbait or paddletail would do the trick.

Another vote for spinnerbait first, then trap, then crank, finally senko.
