Like Christie, 2008 Bassmaster Classic champion Alton Jones also considers a Rogue to be one of his primary weapons in late winter and early spring when the water temperature is anywhere from the upper 30s to the low 50s.

Jones first discovered the magical qualities of the Rogue years ago during a tournament on Lake Seminole, located on the border of Georgia and Florida.  “It was one of those tournaments where the water temperature had dropped down to the 40s,” he remembered.

“I was flipping and pitching around the edges of a deepwater hole in a backwater area and my co-angler was throwing a Rogue out in the middle.  I chalked it up to luck when he caught his first five-pounder behind me, but it got my attention when he put a second five-pounder in the boat. That was the first time that I realized just how good a Suspending Rogue could be in extremely cold water.” Complete Article
