Most of the bass in Winnie will be shallow this time of year. It is a large lake so start off with a swim jig to cover water. After you find some areas with fish you can slow down and flip a jig.

Points

Dragging 1/8 oz jigs and shiners along main lake points was most effective. Majority of fish were located between 7-12 feet. Long pitches away from the boat.

Minnows

We were sitting on 15 ft of water several yards back from a ledge drop off. The perch seemed to be congregating on the high side of the reef. Full minnows on a tungsten jig or spoon was the ticket to getting our bites. The spoon was the deal for getting the larger fish to bite.

Use your electronics to locate schools of fish and drop down to them. Use your electronics to stay above the school and keep bouncing the jig a foot or two off the bottom.You can tie the mono to the braid and use a snap swivel the attach the jig to your line or use a short piece of mono about 3 feet long to attach to the braid to the mono and then tie to the jig Good luck!
