It's been cloudy all day and the rain is coming down.  Going out in a few hours so, when the weather gets bad what lures and techniques do you use?

I was thinking about flipping and pitching some of the nastiest cover I can find

Why ?

Since there aren't many weeds shallow up here, yet, nasty wood is about all the cover you'll find, and any shallow bass will often associate with it.  Don't be afraid to look for deeper coontail.  Many of the ponds up here are supporting quite a good amount growth, deep weeds look fresh.

They will not be as tight to cover.... :-/

Throw a double willow spinnerbait until your arms fall off around grass edges and any windy banks...

What else ?

I thought the same as well this past weekend.  Nothing to show for it, until I started throwing a finesse jig into a fallen timber.  It might have to do with temps dropping that day to below freezing, water temps dipped to 44°.  Today its been warmer, and on the rise.  I expect the spinnerbait will crush this Saturday.

As Catt says, spinnerbaits and my personal favorite Buzzbaits.   During the summer here in Florida we get some quick storms moving through, and as the wind picks up and the water gets some ripple, I'll toss a spinnerbait.  

After the storm. winds usually die down and I'll throw a buzzbait along weedlines.  To bass rains mean something is getting washed into the water and usually that something is on top, why not let it be your buzzbait  ;D.  Also, if its dead calm and still cloudy try a Pop-r after the storm, they'll crush it.

I wouldnt be throwing a buzzbait in Pennsylvania in March...

maybe a ripping crankbait nippin the bottom and off of some underwater points?

When windy I like pounding the wind blown banks with spinnerbaits, lipless cranks, and big loud prop baits!

Try swimming a black power worm...this can be deadly.

:-X  Probably wouldnt be my first choice, but I cant say it hasnt produced.  The spinnerbait would be better, but....

Depends on the "where"
