Wintertime bass fishing on Caddo can be tough but it can also be a great time of the year to catch that lunker of a lifetime. The pattern and lure I would first choose to go with this time of the year is a jig fished on the cypress trees in 4-6 ft. of water.
I usually use a bl/blue or br/orange colored 1/2 oz. Cyclone Slippin Jig. I like to use either a craw worm, lizard, or pork trailer this time of year.
Don't be surprised to find fish up shallow on a warm sunny series of days even this early in the year. Don't expect a lot of bites in the winter but with patience and persistence you can get some real quality bites.
Rattletraps, flukes, and swimbaits are some other choices also.
Water temps are ranging from 47-50 degrees and the lake is a little high.
