Alright, listen up, y’all! We gonna talk about catchin’ them bass in the fall, ya hear? Fall fishin’ can be mighty fine if you know what to use. So, let me tell ya, ain’t no big secret, just gotta use the right stuff.
First off, we got them topwater lures. Them bass, they like to chase stuff on top, especially early and late in the day when it’s a bit cooler. You throw them out, make a bit of a ruckus, and BAM! Fish on! I like the ones that make a lot of noise, you know, the ones that go “plop, plop, splash.” Them bass can’t resist that, no sir.
Then there’s crankbaits. These little fellers dive down deep and wiggle around like a real baitfish. Them bass, they see that wiggling and they think, “Oh boy, a tasty snack!” You want to get some in different colors, like shad, white, and that bright chartreuse color. Some folks like the ones that are flat-sided, some like the round ones. Me? I just try ’em all out and see what them fish are bitin’ on that day.
- Shad colors are good
- White is always a good bet
- Chartreuse, that bright yellow-green, works wonders sometimes
Next up, spinnerbaits. These got them shiny blades that spin around and flash, makin’ a lot of commotion in the water. Bass, they see that flash and come runnin’. White and chartreuse, them’s the colors you want for spinnerbaits, just like them crankbaits. I always say, keep it simple, stupid. Don’t need no fancy colors, just the ones that work.
And don’t forget about them swimbaits. These look just like real little fish, swimmin’ along all natural-like. You can get ’em in different sizes and colors, depending on what kind of baitfish them bass are eatin’. Sometimes them bass want a big meal, sometimes they want a little snack. You gotta figure out what they want.
Now, jigs, them’s a whole different story. You can put all sorts of trailers on them jigs – plastic creatures, worms, whatever you got. And the colors? Well, you got your red shad, watermelon, pumpkin, and that Junebug color. Them bass, they love them jigs, especially when they’re hangin’ around cover, like weeds or rocks. You gotta be patient with them jigs, though. Sometimes you gotta let ’em sit there a while before them bass decide to bite.
Lipless crankbaits are another good choice for fall bass. They vibrate like crazy when you reel ’em in, and that vibration attracts them bass from far away. Good for when the water’s a little murky and them bass can’t see so good.
So, you see, ain’t no one magic lure that catches all the bass all the time. You gotta have a few different kinds, and you gotta be willin’ to try ’em all out. And you gotta pay attention to the water, see what them bass are doin’, where they’re hangin’ out. Water clarity is important too, you know. If the water’s clear, them bass can see your lure from further away. If it’s murky, you gotta use something that makes a lot of noise or vibration.
And don’t forget to think about what them bass are eatin’ naturally. If they’re chasin’ shad, use a shad-colored lure. If they’re eatin’ crawfish, use a jig with a crawfish trailer. It ain’t rocket science, y’all.
Whether you’re fishin’ in shallow water or deep water, these lures will help you catch them bass. Just remember, fishing ain’t just about the lures, it’s about being patient, payin’ attention, and havin’ a good time. So get out there, cast a line, and see what you can catch! Good luck, y’all!
