Fall Bass Fishin

[brewer88]

So this will really be my first fall fishing season here between deployments and training rotations and was wondering what the bass fishing is like. Is there a time where activity picks up? I was out on the river sunday when it was nice and cool and caught a bunch of smaller bass on a buzzbait off a rocky shore, id love to be able to keep doing that but not sure if it had to do with the weather nor not. any tips for finding them around here in the fall are much appreciated!

Fishing in the fall is fun and frustrating at the same time. The fish are easy to find. They roam around with the bait. You know you are all around them bc they are schooled up and busting bait everywhere. Getting them to bite is another story sometimes. Topwater, rattle trap, squarebill, spinnerbait, etc.

I agree with Texas Rig.

Find them busting on bait, and get a bait in there. Sometimes the bait is so thick, it's hard to compete. I still think we have a few weeks before the fall pattern begins.

Bass will start to move shallow as the water temp drops and are very heavily focused on feeding for the Winter months. Beware, a cold front in Fall will ruin the fishing a lot more than in the Spring. I typically will fish into mid to late October and then it's fully hunting season for me so I leave it alone until Spring time.
