Cold temps and cold water with bass hanging out on the bottom around rocks and drop offs. I noticed on my lowrance active target the bass were not suspended and the jerkbait wasn’t producing like I hoped it would. So I switched it up and tied on one of my favorite jig combos. Dirty Jigs football jig and Xzone adrenaline craw Junior! It worked out well producing some quality bites under some cold and bitter conditions!

This combo is deadly throughout the year. However when the water gets cold and you are still willing to get out there and brave the cold temps this bait can absolutely produce quality fish! When bass are feeding up for winter they will crush this bait and swallow it whole! I like fishing a heavier weight let it get down a little deeper and knock it around rocks along the bottom. Often times when it gets hung up on a rock or falls for second is when they will get it! Just bring some hand warmers!
