Jared Lintner has recently relocated to Georgia. In this on the water class, it was Lintner's first time bass fishing with a crankbait in the winter on Lake Lanier. Lintner starts by breaking down what you're looking for in good cranking areas for the winter. Before going out in search of bass, he does a walk-through of his favorite winter cranking tackle, baits and colors. With all his Jackall crankbaits and Daiwa Tatula rods and reels, Lintner hits some prime winter natural rock and riprap banks in search of winter bass.
