I live a little west of Roanoke, VA and this has been the coldest week for us this fall. It has been in the high 50's, low 60's so far and the low's for tonight are in the 40's. I have a tournament this weekend on a local, deep, rocky lake, Claytor. Think Smith Mountain Lake if you're unfamiliar. I haven't been able to get out lately and won't be able to till the day of it. I was just curious to how your fish are acting this week.

The bass and pickerel were taking plastic worms very well today at Briery Creek Lake.

its been skunky for me. today i noticed the bass holding TIGHT to cover and saw some right on the shoreline but they wanted nothing to do with what i had to offer.

It been very hard for me this week, i got skunked the last 2 times i went out and only one fish the time before.  My brother on the other hand has been catching fish and im sure its because he lubes up his plastics with mega strike.
