Four Tested Winter Baits

Winter bass can be finicky, sluggish and when they do decide to eat often focus on suspended schools of baitfish.

Though anglers fish a variety of baits when chasing sluggish winter bass, four tested baits that work under some of the toughest conditions include:

• the Damiki rig - great on suspended bass
• a jig and paddletail swimbait - one of the best all around bass baits
• a suspending jerkbait - can trigger even the most finicky bass as it hangs at depth when paused
• a jigging minnow - great option for mimicking scattered/struggling winter bait
