If the weeda aren't all the way to the surface, you could also try a spinnerbait or buzzbait. Cast and retrieve the spinnerbait so it is just under the surface of the water causing a bulge in the surface as you retrieve it. Start reeling as soon as it hits the water, and keep the rod tip up high, you can reel a bit slower with a higher rod tip.
