The thing that works for me buck tail hair jigs brown&orange with blue pig .When the water warms up to upper 50s go to R trap or SLOW ROLL #5 spinner bait . I make my hair jigs cannt find them down south[with weed gard].The cold muddy water beats work any day so all that other crap about staying home is for :-*, conditions not always the best but make the best fish SLOW.
