It wasnt critical when I won the 2010 Classic on Lay Lake with a Red Eye Shad, and there was actually still a thin layer of ice on some of the backwaters when we started The key is to fish it near the bottom at this time of year by dragging or short hopping it, rather than burning it higher in the water column, like you would in much warmer water

Laydowns If youre fishing a public lake or pond from shore, you need to differentiate your presentation from other anglers because the bass are probably pressured

Congrats to @blueridgemusky, caught on a War Eagle spinnerbait: News 1
