bass fishing cold weather
cold weather bass fishing?
Just got my first nice baitcaster for xmas (a curado 200) and Im dying to use it. What would you use on a pond where the ice just melted? Is a carolina rig with a 4 inch water melon worm a good choice? Ive heard I need to go small and slow. Is that right?
In a pond I would try a wacky rig or a drop shot….specially if ice has just melted. Water is cold so the fish are not going to be very active, and will want small meals. Or a CR with a real small weight & some kink of small bait that will float. Color will depend on the water color/clarity.
When you think you are fishing slow enough SLOW down some more.
Good Luck and some kind of plastic craw might be worth trying as well….bass will eat a craw no mater what time of year it is.

I’ve recently discovered a terrific resource for bass fishing techniques. It’s a bass fishing book called “Bass Fishing Exposed”. This is a well-written, thoroughly enjoyable, E-book of bass fishing tips that will help YOU improve all facets of your bass fishing experience. Of all the fishing books I’ve read in my 30 plus years of life (and in particular the books on bass fishing), I’ve never come across a more valuable resource! You will truly have more fun out on the lake! Click here to read the rest of the article:Bass Fishing Exposed
