Default Fall bite has arrived

Typical fall fishing, but when you find them, there’s a lot of them!! Took my 14 yo brother fishing Friday and it was on! 1st cast and my rat-l-trap got eaten! I thought well, it’s gonna be a good day or that’s the only one I’m gonna catch. Turned out to be a good day. For the next couple hours we didn’t catch a thing. I picked up a spinner bait and it was on! Ended up putting 30bass total in the boat in about 5-6hrs fishing a stretch of grass that was maybe 50 yards long. Just kept going up and down it. The bass were gorging on shad big time. I caught a 12”er that had to have been close to 2lb!! Lol. He was so fat his head wouldn’t touch the carpet. We ended up having to switch back to the trap. Seemed like they got use to the spinner bait. Had to burn both of them. Couldn’t slow roll anything. Went back Saturday with my 18 yo brother and we put 10 in the boat in 2.5 hrs. Same area. I love this time of the year!!

We took a break and tried to catch some crappie. Caught one right off the bat and thought that was gonna work out, but I was wrong. Spent about an hour and half on that and went back to bass fishing.
