Under those conditions...I would have stayed home and cleaned my reels.I would have thrown a red'ish colored square bill crank in the laydowns, pitched a tube and/or chigger craw in the same laydowns, threw a jerk bait over creek channel bends, slow rolled a bandit 200 on points. But with the water temps in the 40's, blue bird day, Ohio river tributary...the odds were stacked against you. Am itching to get on the river myself but it's usually may or early June before the river is what I consider "fishable".
