Slow down, and when you think your retrieve is slow enough. Slow it down

Yeah, good advice. I try to work it as slow as possible but river current
makes it difficult. The slow metabolism of the fish this time of year
dictates the slow retrieve, well.. most of time

I was hoping for some new tips for cold water river bass.


You got smallmouth? Sometimes a crank bait off current breaks by rocks and
bats can surprise you with reaction strikes a faster retrieve than you might
think with the current or quartering casts upstream.
