How's the "cold" weather fishin' for the panfish? I have had some success on Little Nippers I hardly ever bother in the winter, there's a reason they are called sunfish. The guys&gals South of Dallas seem to do great yr round though. Winter time can be awesome but you have to have the patience as they are sluggish here in the winter during winter time here I give up on all artificials just put a worm about about 3-6 feet under a bobber (your gonna want a decent size rod) and try to fish all the structure you can find I have a stream with a slow current so I use that to drift fish kinda lol
Its not about how deep you can fish but by how you wiggle your worm

Post a picture of some huge, big panfish you've caught! Body of water would be nice! Here's my biggest warmouth to date, Dog Park in Farmers Branch What a beast of a Warmouth.

Yeah, greenies have a big mouth just like warmouths. Yellowish, reddish, orangish color on the bottom fins is a dead greenie give away. If you have a pic of the craw, I can probably ID or at least let you know where to find more. It always works out that way, we finally fish with a lure we've had for years and it works, and then we can't find them in the stores.

Shad Minnow (now called the shad rap) similar body's but the lips weren't as big so it would only go about 3' deep and oh my gosh! Talk about catching some fish!
