The cold dirty water blues

Billy Ray Sykes - graduate

I need direction. Decided to challenge myself yesterday. Went out after a cold front to make some bass bite. Flung everything I had for the 4 hrs. I had. What do we do when there seems to be no hope?

Billy, That's the toughest condition there is. Congratulations on taking it on! There are a few things I do when I have deal with this condition. The first thing I look for is the clearest water there is. The clearest water will often be the warmest water too. Chasing the warm water is the most importing in most cases. When you there I want to use lures that the fish will be able to find. Big jig, chatter baits, Colorado bladed spinner baits, thumping wide wobble crank baits. Another thing that can really help is scents in this situation. You will also have to fish slow when the temperature is falling. Chase that warm water and good luck!
