A favorite presentation/bait once water reaches 50 deg ... working 1/2 black (or black with other colors) single blade spinnerbait with trailer over, through or around patches of submerged vegetation especially in low light conditions. Vary retrieve (slow roll, pulsed, yo-yo) and let the bass tell you what they want. This one wanted a slow-rolled spinnerbait, popping the bait through grass when it made contact. Have a follow-up bait like a t-rigged senko for short strikes.
