Alright, let’s talk about catchin’ them bass in the fall, ya hear? Fall time, that’s when them fish get all riled up, gettin’ ready for winter or somethin’. So, you gotta know what to throw at ’em.
First off, topwater lures. You know, them things that float on top and make a fuss? Bass, they love to smack them things, especially early in the mornin’ and late in the evenin’. Colors? Well, I like somethin’ bright, like chartreuse or white, maybe with a little blue or pepper mixed in. Somethin’ they can see good in that murky water.
Then you got your crankbaits. Them things dive down deep, where the big ones hang out. In the fall, them bass, they start movin’ around, lookin’ for grub. So, you gotta get that crankbait down there where they are. Crawfish colors work good, or maybe somethin’ that looks like a shad. And don’t be scared to bounce it off them rocks and logs, that’s where the bass are hidin’.
Now, spinnerbaits, them things are flashy, ya know? They got them blades that spin and sparkle, and that drives the bass crazy. White, white and chartreuse, fire tiger, them are good colors. You wanna throw them spinnerbaits around them weeds and bushes, where the bass are ambushin’ their dinner. Just keep that thing movin’, and them bass will come chasin’ after it.
- Topwater lures: Good for early and late in the day. Bright colors work best.
- Crankbaits: Get down deep where the big bass are. Use crawfish or shad colors.
- Spinnerbaits: Flashy and good for around weeds and bushes. Keep them moving.
- Swimbaits: Look like real fish, bass can’t resist ’em.
- Jigs: Good for fishing slow and deep.
And let’s not forget about swimbaits. Them things, they look just like a real fish, swimmin’ along all innocent-like. Bass, they can’t resist ’em. You can get swimbaits in all sorts of colors and sizes, match ’em to whatever the bass are eatin’ in your neck of the woods. Just throw ’em out there and reel ’em in slow and steady, let them bass think it’s an easy meal.
Lastly, we got jigs. Them things are good for when the bass are hunkered down deep, not doin’ much. You gotta fish ’em slow, and you gotta be patient. But if you stick with it, you can catch some real monsters on a jig. Black and blue, green pumpkin, them are good colors for jigs.
Now, listen here, October, that’s a real good month for fishin’. Up north, them bass are still hittin’ on topwater and them lipless baits. Down south, you wanna be throwin’ them crankbaits and workin’ them frogs in the grass. You can even punch them jigs through that thick stuff and pull out some big ones.
Remember, when that air and water start gettin’ cool, them bass, they gonna be movin’ into shallower water. So, you gotta adjust your fishin’ accordingly. Don’t be stuck in your ways, try different things, and see what works. And another thing, don’t forget to check the weather. Them bass, they bite better on some days than others, you know? And always keep an eye on that water temperature, that’ll tell you a lot about where them bass are gonna be and what they gonna be doin’.
So there you have it, some tips for catchin’ them fall bass. Now get out there and give it a try, and don’t forget to bring a net, ’cause you might just catch yourself a big one! And remember, fishin’ ain’t just about catchin’ fish, it’s about gettin’ out there in nature, breathin’ that fresh air, and just enjoyin’ yourself. That’s what I always say.
One more thing, always be respectful of the water and the fish. Don’t leave your trash around, and practice catch and release if you can. We gotta take care of these fishin’ holes so we can keep enjoyin’ ’em for years to come.
