I caught a bunch back a month or so ago. Then, I found them in the river below Old Hickory using a downsized version of a catfishing rig with just enough weight to hold it on the bottom. The bait of choice was half piece of night crawler.
We catch a lot on the lakeside fishing for crappie along bluffs. You just have to fish slow but skip from place to place until you find them. In my experiences they love to hold near rock or rock walls in the winter. Once you find them fish just like you would in the spring just slower and deeper.
