Largemouth BassTechniqueUmbrella RigsSeasonWinterStructurePointsEven in the cold these fish are smashing an A-Rig at wheeler. Fishing the mid section of the lake around creek mouths and channel swing banks are producing a lot of fish. Fun way to catch them this time of year.

Water was decently clear and fish were on long points and chasing bait. Most reaction baits could catch them, but a crankbait and umbrella rig seemed to work the best on cold days. Best way to fish the crankbait was to reel really fast and then pausing 3-4 times per cast. Fish seemed to be slapping at the crankbait and having upgraded treble hooks made a real difference.

Got on a few but not having any practice before the tournament! Just couldn’t get a pattern going! Caught a few out on Main Lake Rive Channels! And something I did catch pretty good on was with live scoop! Find your pocket you like and look for a lil draw in it anywhere and I we found fish in about ever lil draw like that we could find! Had 10 pounds in five small fish!
