Fall Fishing Strategy/lures?
I throw a KVD 1.5 gizzard shad a lot in fall,i start at main lake points close to creek channels and work back to end of coves. Great time of year to be on water when everyone has hunting on minds and weather is cool. Gonna be a while till fall gets here. Right now we been using a shakey head with zoom junebug red trick worm and drop shot with 4"worm in this heat.

Un-Snagging Deep Crankbaits
http://m.basspro.com/EZ-Lure-Retriever-Kit/product/52869/ I use alot of Poes cranks at $10ea. and so does my fishing partner. This has saved us a lot of $$$$$.When you get hung up try to get straight above it and hold your line semi tight and drop retriever from several feet above lure up and down. Works most of the time after a few knocks.

Texas Rig Question
[quote name="CDobber" I did actually go to the store the other day looking for a stronger, mono/flouro type leader when I knew I was replacing my steel leader opted to try the Fireline, but found it next to impossible to try and do an Albright on it (an unfamiliar knot to me to begin with) as the line did not want to wrap cleanly.....

Texas Rig Question
Anytime i fish a t-rig i always tie direct to lure.You get way more feel for the bait and what its doing. Something i started doing years ago is to keep one finger resting on line and keep as little slack as possible so you can detect light strikes. Also keep an eye on line sometimes it just moves sideways when a fish picks it up and you never feel it. Its by far my favorite way to fish(love that tap)!!! My main setup is 3/16.oz weight with 4/0 hook and 6-7.5" worm. Good Luck :-)

Favorite Lures Or Bait
Another vote for T-rig. Most time a 3/16.oz with 7.5" worm is in hand or close by ;-)
