nightsessions Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 What are some big topwaters that can be worked really slow in the winter? I know the 3:16's, but curious to see what else you guys throw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishingallday31 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 I like to dead stick baits near shallow bays and docks. Fish hold to wood in the wintertime here, whatever holds heat. That said my winter is not harsh like some winters I have heard about on the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazybassfisher Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 A floating 10" TT or a dead twitch are really good choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ltrain Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Every Swimbait is "topwater" around here in the winter time. ISO_the1, Top Ramen, Zack Carscaddon and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SethB Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 I wouldn't say I do it a lot but when it feels right. I have caught fish on the 7" and 9" Slammer in winter. Mostly low light conditions and right on the bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassindaily Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 a roman made trick, you can fish that thing super sloooow on the surface Welcome jake! Back to the topic I got a few on the rat pitching it against docks but otherwise it was all sinking baits like the tripletrout and 250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Ramen Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 The Wake Jr. and waking Arm are my go-to baits but lipless topwater baits also work well. In addition to the Freestyle baits, a floating TT or similar bait can be very effective when fished slowly or dead-sticked. I have an old floating Hinkle shad that's caught some good cold water fish. fishaholic211 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
