Great Lakes Bass Fishing Forum

Hey last summer i got a Triton bass boat and have began bass fishing. I research quite a bit and know most of the general stuff, but for some reason cannot get many bass out on the bays. My best days are normally only catching around 3 while being out there for a 4 plus hours. When i get out to smaller lakes such as bass/ green lake i can catch closer to 10 on average but for some reason cannot get the bays down at all. If anyone has any advice or small pointers i would appreciate it greatly
