Kansas has been in the 60's for the past few days which is rare for this time of year. I got spring fever already and planning on heading out after lunch here in a few hours to try an catch a bass or two. There's two places i'm goin to try one is rocky not much cover thinking bout maybe a crankbait there, and the other has some big laydowns thinking a jig-n-pig, or a soft plastic texas rigged both fished S-L-O-W. Anyone else have any ideas that i could try. Will post results later! Matt  

Try a weightless senko rigged wacky style...  

Try the jig in the rocks also and the crankbait in the tree.

Id also use some type of jerkbait maybe both floating and suspending ones

I'm curious how it went KS_Bassin.  Water temps at Smithville Lake, north of K.C., are hovering between 38 and 39 degrees so I'm about ready for spoons and slow, slow jigging.  I'm having a bent prop shaft repaired so I'm unable to get out in my boat right now.  

Well i had a good time fishing  ;D i ended up catching some crappie and a bass bout 14" off a crawdad colored crainkbait in the rocks . As far as the laydowns i tried a texas rig, a jig, a crankbait, and ended up with a fairly nice cat i'm guessing he was trrying so soak up some sun the log might absorb? or that was his home? Anyhow i  had a great time even though i didn't catch much seen plenty of ducks and geese so next weekend i might take out the shotgun !!  ;D
