In the winter I fish Table Rock in SW MO. The water temp usually stays in the mid to upper 40s. I go up river or into large creeks where the water isn’t deeper that about 40 feet. I almost always use several baits but the best for the last few years has been Plastisol worms from Strike King and Zman.
Yesterday I caught 16 bass on them rigged weedless shaky with a Midwest finesse head and a VMC EWG 2/0 hook.
