As summer fades some may think good fishing days are fading with it, but that’s not the case. Fall is an excellent time to continue fishing and reel in some monster fish. Cooler weather does, however, change a few strategies for catching large mouth bass.

The best baits are always the baits similar to what the fish are hunting, naturally. During the fall as bait fish are what is on the menu tying on baits like shad, minnows, and sunfish will catch your desired catch’s attention. Lipless crank-baits reeled at a slightly slowed speed with little jerks are also a great option for fall fishing.

Fish will chase their food, especially in preparation for winter. Following schools of shad jumping is generally a sure fire way to get in a shoal of bass. Look for small fish jumping out of the water and sometimes you can even catch a glimpse of a bass jumping after them.

If you’re out for monster fish, fall is really a better time than the spring. Fish aren’t waiting on nests, rather waiting on food!

Large fish are more often in covered areas such as submerged trees and brush, water vegetation, docks, etc. than with a large group. To catch large bass, remember to throw a large bait!

A low hanging limb over our pond, it has great potential as a hiding spot for fish!

Some day’s the fish just aren’t biting, but there are always memories to be made and fun to be had by the water. Be flexible, patient, and willing to try a different bait or a new location.
