Hitting a 6 iron out of that lie is probably not the easiest or highest percentage play.
I like to hit low punches from lies like this with a steep angle of attack. I don’t think it needs to be extra precise, but minimize the contact with the grass before the ball.
Shots from the rough often need 1-2 extra clubs putting you at a 5 or possible even a 4 iron.
If you see the lie and you think that you will have trouble clearing the water, you already know that you should lay up. I’m a 7 handicap, not a heck of a lot lower than you guys but that’s my .02
