Glad you joined LuvSumFishin. Jerry should be able to put you on those fish with no problem. You've got a good teacher.
From what I know growing up on small oxbows, slow trolling about "tittie deep" (as my grandfather would say) is a good technique to try. In late May and June, find the deepest water and try this technique. I find it best to drag a chain and let the wind push you slowly. What lake are you fishing?
