Fishing A Frozen Lake!! Rain, Ice, And Bass Fishing!!

We found open water and the bass are biting!! Come along as the boys explore new spots after their main areas are frozen over. The ice cold water is causing them to adapt but it doesn't take long for them to find a pattern that works and start putting bass in the boat! These are the days we don't forget!

A recent cold snap has caused our home lake to freeze and it's been a struggle to even find a way to get the boats on the water. A little ice and snow won't stop us from chasing bass! We don't winterize our boats, and we don't put our gear away for the season. We adapt to changing conditions and figure out a way to keep catching fish! Come along for an awesome day as we explore the limits of bass fishing when it's cold!
