Was fishing a remote lake in WV several weeks ago, extremely clear water.

The day was relatively slow for fishing, bluebird skies.

As I was working my way back to the ramp, monstrous boulders suddenly appeared in 10-15 feet of water.

Threw a wacky rig on a 1/16 head and landed 3 bass in a matter of minutes.

Boulders are something bass can cling to.

Where I fish big boulders, or rock piles + other structure are Spotted Bass magnets.   During cooler weather exposed ones will hold fish.  When it's warmer deeper ones are where they're at.   I caught my PB Spotted Bass earlier this month at at big under water boulder.  (about the size of a pickup)   There's a tapered rocky point that ends at a smallish creek channel.  The boulder is on the other side of the creek channel.   I can usually find Spotted Bass either along the point, or in the creek channel or near the boulder.  I've got "catfished" there a few times too.   This spot is ~50 yards from a channel swing in the main river channel.   I believe there's some "magic" current going on there when the power company is running the generators.   FWIW this area isn't depicted correctly on charts by Navionics or C-map.   I wonder if it's on Lakemaster maps.  I'm guessing not.  I rarely see anyone fishing there.
