Cold weather largemouth bass

[mctyndall]

Okay so I fish the neuse river here in Eastern North Carolina. There are so branch off creeks that are pretty productive. This will be my first year bass fishing in cold weather. Tips for fishing river in cold weather. I assume bearing the bank is no good ?

I like to slow way down when the water gets cold. Channel swing banks normally produce best for me. Keep lure selection small and simple. Jerkbait,jig,spinnerbait, and an A-rig will usually catch you some fish. Also dont be afraid to burn up any shallow flats with a rattle trap. Fewer bites with cold water but normally better quality
