I usually use wooly buggers, black first, green second, brown third. A small black rabbit strip about 3" long with doll's eyes on hair head works very well also. Also used a big worm hook and a black 4" power bait with a chartreuse tail, Texas rigged, in really thick weed, on my 7wt, pitching it into holes. Not for the faint of heart to use on a fly rod. Even though all the stuff I had, was tied weedless, it wouldn't work in that stuff in 4ft of water, but, that setup did. It was a sac-religious act, got me some 3-4 pounders though.
