The trick to the winter bass in the softwater is to have a very sloooooooooooooow presentation.
Match the hatch and slow it down.
Crawdads, crawfish, mudbugs or what ever you want to call them are the 2nd favorite of the bigger LMBs.
You can "Whacky" rig them just like you would a worm. That helps keep them alive longer and they get a chance to move around more freely.
No live bait??? Not a problem. Storm lures have an answer for the Mudbug question in any state. It would be helpful to know the color of the Mudbugs during the season that you are planning to fish with them.
There are different colors of Storm lures as well as other manufactures of soft plastics.
1st choice of the LMB in that area would be young snakes. Therefore, the Yamamoto or Senko type baits. The color will depend on the clarity of the water and time of year.
Holler back if you need anything else.[cool]
We will all be glad to help where we can.
