When water temperatures drop, appetites increase and a variety of fish species come in shallow to feed.

A crankbait or bass jig fished during the right conditions can wreak havoc on a variety of feeding species during this time, as walleye, catfish, drum and other deeper-water fish move into sometimes a couple of feet of water or less to fuel up for winter.

WESTMORELAND — At times, fishing can be a numbers game.
