Cold fronts coming in with regularity have lowered water temperatures in lakes and ponds and have put fish in an active mood. Target bass on rocky points, brush piles and ledges using jigs and bladed jigs as well as lipless crankbaits. Crappie and panfish have been feeding as well. Look for fish starting to bed and prepare for spawning.
