This time of year on the Kissimmee Chain I usually look forward to a cold front. The reason is it puts most of the bass that are around spawning locales in to the matted grass. 1.5 Oz tungsten sinker, 7-9, 6 power Scenko Stix Flip Stick, 8:1 Reel, and a Gambler lures Burner craw gets the bite every time. They key is identifying the mats adjacent to the spawning areas and than dialing in the depth and composition of the productive mats. It may take a while to get the first bite but once you get dialed in, your efforts can play big dividends and put tournament winning stringers in the box.
