Crank Baits along the shore line

[Shad_Master]

Spent the last couple of days throwing a shallow CB from shore at a small lake near my work -- caught a lot of fish that were following it in and "trapping" it along the rocks.  If this is common - how would you fish a CB from a boat for these fish?  They aren't hitting it on a parallel - just when it's comming in from deeper water and are hitting it 1-2 feet from the shore line.

Based on those conditions, I'd position the boat as close to shore as possible and try to simulate what you do from shore. You probably couldn't duplicate it exactly, but maybe cast out as close to your shore pattern as possible and bring the lure back to shore.
