Again, not looking for topwater tactics. Im asking about what you can do to the lake to make it a better topwater fishery. I appreciate the comments, just not the information I am looking for. Sorry I wasn't more specific in the original post.
I don't know that you can "make" your BOW a better top water fishery. I do believe it is best certain times of the year, and at certain times of the day. If you're fishing during those times of the year and the day and you've tried various lures to no avail, then it seems unlikely you'll somehow be able to coerce the bass to change their feeding and predatory interests. You'll have to "just enjoy" the type of bite they give you there, and then fish topwater at a BOW where the fish are more interested in hitting lures at the surface.
