We fished Six O on Saturday from around 6:30 to 2:00 under bright skies with a comfortable breeze.  We landed 30 total with 23 being harvested.  The remaining 7 were between 1 3/4 and 3 1/2 pounds.  The 3 1/2 lber actually came from right under the boat house.  The water was crystal clear and the vegetation was healthy and growing to the surface as much as 10' deep.  We had luck with weightless soft stickbaits, T-rigged curly tail worms, and a jerkbait.  As other members have noted, this is one lake where you'll see a lot of these harvest fish up in the very shallow water chasing (and leaping out of the water) after dragonflies.  This is a beautiful property and a large lake - the pontoon boat is so stable and comfortable - FYI we used our 30 lb trolling motor and it barely moves the big boat against the wind - anything over a 11 or 12 mph wind would be a problem getting around safely with just that 30 lb thrust motor.  I'm sure that 45lber would be just right.
