Winter bass fishing can be incredibly tough. When water temperatures drop, bass metabolism slows down, and they become extremely lethargic and reluctant to chase bait. If you are still throwing your summer power fishing baits, you are probably going home empty-handed.

In this video, I share my top 4 proven baits for catching cold-water bass. These lures cover everything from suspended fish to bass glued to the bottom of deep wintering holes. We discuss exactly why these baits work when it’s freezing outside and the specific retrieves you need to use to trigger bites when the fishing gets tough.
