It's easy for me to say when water freezes over give the bass a rest, my water never freezes. I still believe where lakes freeze over bass need a rest from fishing pressure because it makes sense at so many levels. Bass are warm water fish and struggle to survive under the ice, why add to thier struggle for your own pleasure. To say it's very dangerous goes without saying, you make a mistake in very cold water you are not likely to survive.

Give bass a rest???? I can't comprehend that. You'd have to strap me to a chair and sedate me
