I've been fishing Blackwater the last few weekends and I've caught two 20" on two different weeekends. I've been using a big 6 arm artifical umbrella rig and it catches one everytime I go there but I think my issue might be I'm getting there right as the bite turns off. which I'm getting there around 10 or so. So I was thinking what I need to do is spend the night and get up ealy in the mornings and hit these points I've been catching them at and when lunch time rolls around just stop trolling for the day because of two things. (1) the bite turns off mid day and (2) the boat traffic gets nasty where I'm at. So that seems to be my situation.

Most of us are up and out at daylight and fish till the pleasure boaters take over around 9:30-10a. The fish tend to be moving out into the channel and deep by then anyway

I'm guessing they are still up and around the points correct?

Points are always good areas to target - but as you can see from some of the resent posted reports the fish are holding in 20' - 40' of water - so if you're targeting points it needs to be major points that extended out a ways into deeper water. Not that they might not come up at night - not been doing any night fishing recently.
