The conditions spell "d-i-a-s-t-e-r for fishing the day after the front moves through your area.

 

Next day you will have blue bird skies and lockjaw bass.

 

Wait a few days and go back out and the bass will be feeding again.

 

Good luck.

We had a “bomb cyclone” weather event here, Wednesday and Thursday. 20+MPH winds and close to 4” of rain. Today was overcast and high of 50 degrees. I braved the banks as the river was flowing strong. I looked for current breaks and was able to catch one small Largemouth. 

 

The local canal water flow was shut down so I was only able to get one Fallfish. At least I didn’t get skunked.

I love those mudlines. Fish sit in the muddy water and ambush bait swimming in the clear water. Basically the same as how they use a weedline.

Don't stop fishing just because of weather, nows the time to practice your real skills, finesse, slow down, different colors of bait, etc.  Some fish are feeding on something most times and in fall you never know when one is there waiting to take your bait.   I caught a 2lb crappie the other day after a cold front, caught it on a small brim jig!
