In cold weather, we typically slow down how we retrieve our lures.
What we also need to consider, is how fast that lure is falling when it enters the water, and between pauses in the retrieve.
In this video I will be showing you how and why the weight of your lure might be costing you fish in the colder months.
Enjoy!

Tony, I like the underwater videos the weight really changes the drop rate much.
For sure! Thank you for the great feedback Tim!
Great winter fishing tips, Tony! Thanks!

Thanks Leo!
Great video. I wish I looked at it 2 days ago 🤣 went fishing yesterday and used the prawn Junior with the jig head. And had absolutely no luck. Switched to the slam Shady and caught like four small trout thank you. I love your videos.
You’re welcome Jesse!

Good luck out there!
