Rip Rap
Really tough post cold frontal conditions in sub freezing temperatures on Lake Palestine during my tournament. On Day 2 the sun came out but water temps were still in mid 40s. I focused on riprap and areas that the sun could warm, looking for a reaction bit and bass cruising up against warming structure. I had success slow rolling a Bassman Compact Tandem spinnerbait through these long areas in both the morning and late afternoon.
