C'mon down.

I do have a buddy who lives in N. Carolina. Hoping to get down there once this winter, depending on how busy I am at work.

Anything big fished slow.  

 

IMHO, once it's cold the bigger fish go deep and tend to inhale baits gently using as little energy as possible.  So I like to use big jerkbaits, large (but not huge) soft-paddle tail swimbaits and jigs with a larger trailer and I fish them really slow.  I think the key is to find the fish first.  If you find bait fish, somewhere close by are bass. 

What if every single cove, creek arm, and pocket on the entire river system has enough Shad to walk across?

Get video of the walk. It'll go viral. You'll get rich and be able to upgrade your fishing arsenal.

I've seen them like that also. They were so thick, throwing a jerkbait you would have a threadfin on every hook of every treble. So I pulled my Roboworm off my dropshot and used the shad and caught some very nice crappie but never found bass on those shad that day.

I have had success with numerous   baits in cold water. November is an unpredictable time but like any other month , once you get on them a lot of fish can be caught .  I already mentioned the jig and pork frog . Also the 6 inch jelly worm , Bomber Model A  and  Rapala Crankin Rap square bill have produced memorable days . Argobast Mud Bugs have worked in  late   winter . An  anomaly was one day during a moderate snow bass had shad corralled at the back of a cove . We caught bass after bass on a buzzbait .
