It's always a great feeling when you put an idea in action and it works out for you, congrats on a nice catch

38 Super Fan I hope things pick up for you, hang in there

Thanks for the replies everyone. I'm glad to know what I'm experiencing is typical of fall fishing. 5Bass your reply helps a lot. I to try to locate the shad as well when fishing in the fall, but your tip about using a spoon seems like it could be great at times.

The bass will stay shallow as long as the bait fish do. Once the bait fish move out the bass will follow.

The fishing for me this fall has either been red hot or very slow. The bite has been changing often, one day they can't get enough of my baits and in the next day or two they seem to slow down a lot. There have been a lot of changing temperatures lately, but when the temperatures were steady the fishing seemed to do the same thing. I was just wondering if any of you guys are experiencing or have experienced this much change in fall fishing?

An 18" crappie! That's a giant, congrats on a good outing

Looks like you had a great time! You were definitely catching some hawgs, congrats on the pb smallie!

I would definitely go pro if I had the opportunity. I already fish as much as possible and there's nothing I enjoy more than getting out on the water. Even as a career I don't think fishing would feel like work to me because I enjoy it so much.

Great fish, congrats on your catch

Great fish and congrats!

Another great day indeed, in fact I've never seen you not have a great day

That is a rough day, hang in there! Keep us posted I'd be happy to help in any way I can

Great fish!

What are the areas like that you have previously fished and done well at? In my experience when the temperature drops like this the fish will become a lot less active and they will have a much smaller strike zone. Try fishing closely to any type of structure with something that sinks slowly (like a 1/4oz jig or a weightless plastic) and be sure to make multiple casts to the same piece of structure because a different angle can make a world of difference when the fish aren't active. Also be sure to slow down your presentation. Hope this helps.

Great fish!

Nice video, it looked like a blast

Great fish Fat-G that's a hog!

That's great that you're getting the young ones into fishing at such an early age. Hopefully your re-stocking process will go well, and there will be lunkers in there in no time

Getting a new PB always feels great, congrats!

Nice fish, congrats on a good outing
