If your fishing just from shore Jenn, this weather is going to make it tough for you to score on larger fish of any species in shallow water, unless you have access to a deep hole with running water. For example in Turner on 2A or 2 near a wide sweeping turn, I used to stop every summer I'd visit a friend up the road and fish the hole below a river coming into that spot, can't remember the name of either. We used to drift earthworms with splitshot into that hole and it would be a trout, smallie, catfish, seemed like something different every cast. Lake fishing for largemouth or smallmouth from shore would be better off after dark, maybe run a jitterbug on top or a colorado blade spinnerbait (like the Strikeking Midnight Special), jig & pig if you have the right structure. Any rocky flat with any deep water nearby might have larger fish up on it after dark. If you have access to any smallie rivers, I'd get me a float tube and beat the heat by setting up a nice drift with a couple vehicles, throw some inline spinners, small spinnerbaits, maybe some small poppers and have some fun with some smaller but scrappie smallies.
