Default Weeds..what to do ??

Since my normal fishing grounds are covered with sand, mud and oyster
reefs..( SW flats)..I'm having a hard time dealing with the cut weeds
floating all over the Southern Wisconsin lakes.

It seems that the town fathers send out a flotilla of "weed cutting boats".
They chop and cut and chop and cut, and are supposed to scoop the cuttings
up into their oversize mauls. Many of the cuttings wind up floating on the
lake.

Add to that, some gooey, sticky, messy type weeds that cling to every crank
bait and even to topwaters!!! What does one do to get through the morass? I
notice the locals all think drowning leeches straight down to be a
solution...but....I'm not going to do that.

I'm thinking I have to go rig some special weedless plastics. But, I
probably don't have the patience to fish them slowly enough. All ideas
appreciated. RichG TX- WI
