Where Do Bass Go In The Fall?! (And How To Catch Them)
Fall Bass Fishing has arrived!! Here's what you need to know! Bass are schooling up and feeding on baitfish. If you're not catching them, you need to adapt right away because it's happening, and you're missing it! Regardless of the type of lake you're fishing, we're here to help. From where bass position in different types of fisheries, to the baits we use to catch them, we're about to lay it all out for you!
Fall is a peak time for bass fishing! Whether you like to fish shallow or deep, there are aggressive fish to be caught. We use different lures depending on the type of fishery, but the concept is always the same; find the baitfish, find the bass. Keep moving, keep searching, and keep your eyes peeled for signs of life in the water! If you can find the baitfish, active bass aren't far away.
Below is a breakdown of the gear we recommend using during these conditions. We've included rigging components where applicable and even included our favorite colors for each technique. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
