Crawfish, minnows and nightcrawlers are you best bet. Good luck!

senkos in green pumpkin work well here

small mepps spinners and mister twisters work well.

I caught a small mouth today in Lake Erie on a walleye rig with a worm - go figure.

Small crankbait wouldn't be bad.

Green plastic grubs on jigheads have worked well for me

I suppose it depends on where you are. However when I was recently fishing in the Delaware River, at the Delaware water gap there were a few things that worked decently well. My friend had pretty decent luck with a Gulp five inch sinking minnow, which was essentially highlighter green. I myself had good luck with a floating Rapala that was a shallow diver. He also had luck with another diving crank bait, that was painted like a crawfish.
