During the winter, fish tend to be less active and may be deeper in the water. Therefore, it's essential to use baits that can attract their attention. Some of the best baits for winter fishing include live bait such as minnows, worms, and shrimp. Artificial baits like jigs, spoons, and soft plastic lures can also be effective. When using artificial baits, opt for smaller sizes and natural colors to mimic the fish's natural prey. Additionally, slow down your retrieval speed as fish are less likely to chase fast-moving baits in colder water.
