Not in the middle of the lake but not right up in the cover either.

I caught some of those dinky bass too out in the middle of the lake on a crankbait. I caught two like that, neither of them even hit 8 inches. I caught those two quickly when I tried cranking the middle of the lake so I went back to the banks since I'm looking for something a bit bigger haha.
The deepest part I came upon was I think 12 feet. I only saw little fish in the deeper water. I scanned it pretty good. But even the shell cracker were up next to cover, next to a bush or tree under the Duckweed. Really no good bottom in there for shell cracker to relate to so I guess they will just stay close to some shallow cover. It's good that there are plenty of smaller bass to keep the lake producing good fish down the road. You are right...if one is bass fishing really not much need of electronics in there.
