In current I like big wooden swimmers. My favorites are the large Tattoo in diving or regular and the HUGE BigWater pikies.

Just cast across the current and let them swim. No reeling needed. You can count during the drop-back (if you choose to let some extra line out) to get back to the same spot if you get a fish.

If you're near bridge pilings, make sure to gear up. Current + obstacles = heavy gear.

One general fishing principle to remember is to fish the "changes". Where current meets slack water, where the current is interrupted by something, shadow lines, dropoffs, etc.
