I fish in Georgia and bassfishing is just brutual right now on a lot of lakes.  4 to 6 pounds are winning tournaments and hardly anybody catching a limit. 

What are you guys throwing in that water temp range?

This time of year I'm looking for a pocket or cove with a deep ditch or creek channel in it. Then I'm going to look for baitfish. If there are no baitfish then I leave. If I find baitfish I will do one of two things.

1. If the ditch is 15 feet deep of less I grap a Buckeye Lures Suspend Blade tipped with a Super Fluke Jr. and make long casts and let it fall to the bottom and then Yo-Yo it back to the boat. I work in and around the ditch. The bass should be stacked in small spots so when I get a bite I make dozens of casts to that exact spot and usually pick up a few more.

2. If the ditch is deeper than 15ft I will use my electronics and find the fish in the ditch and drop a jigging spoon on top of them.

Hard to beat a lipless crank or jerkbait when the wind kicks up. I generally do very well in main lake pockets close to breaklines with the wind on them with lipless baits. Just becuase it is cold doesn't mean you have to fish slow.

jigs,blade baits,hard jerkbaits.

i know this may sound crazy, but take a 3/8 shakey head with a 5-6 inch worm. find a ledge or channel bend, and SLOWLY drag it along the structure.

silver buddies also are good.  i would be hard pressed to say a jerkbait at 36 degrees. maybe the 45 mark but below 40 those fish arent going to be very active

Storm Pee Wee Wart in 35*-52* water on rocks and North banks.  I fish all of the above also.
