I don't find them leaving too much as much as just slowing down. Go smaller and slower and you should still find fish in the front. I have been catching fish in 10-20' of water, so I don't think the cold will harm them too much.
they were just getting cranked up and now this. says 30 for the low monday night. we will have to get the long poles out and really get in there deep! anyhow, who is hardcore and still gets fish in these situations? what is your bait/tactic of choice when faced with dropping water temps at night? where do they go when they leave the backs of bays,or do they leave?

Caught so many fish today my thumb is sore from clicking the counter.
I really dont think one night of cold weather will hurt too much. They are in shallow right now, and eating everything. They probably will have lock jaw for a day or two, but then be right back on schedule.
