Rig weedless. Weedless heads like war heads are ok but they will hang in rocks. Not the hook always but the head.

Weedless like mc slugs (a personal favorite) or big jerk baits (like zoom super flukes. Another personal fav) or gulp jerk shad rigged with owner sled heads or Texas rigged. The narrower weight is better suited.

Trick. Cast right into rocks with jerk bait. And I mean right into as in slams into rocks or lands just short. Immediately put into gear. Tight drags and spectra of course. Then let sink. Keep rod top always pointed straight ahead at bait. No jerking to set hook bill dance style. Let line go taught then wind. Do not swing on fish !!!!!

Let it fall. No retrieve necessary. Five cranks and you're past the fish anyways.
