Hey northeast guys - what are your favorite baits and techniques for fall? It will be here before we know it!

I don't have any yet, started freshwater this year, fill me in.

Southeast, but I like jigs, spinnerbaits, lipless cranks, and topwaters. I love fall fishing. The fish turn on and strap on the feedbags for winter - awesome time of year.

Tubes have been good to me most anytime. Slow w/short hops.

jigs, oh and jigs.

Early fall, jigs and spinnerbaits. Late fall, deep structure with spoons and silver buddies.

Jigs and square bills

Im gonna have to go with spinnerbaits, crankbaits and my favorites jigs and jerkbaits dont forget about that topwater too

Everything?

How about super flukes? I have a few hard jerkbaits, but no plastic.

Well, I pretty much use whatever I'd use in spring or summer, just the location I fish changes.

1) Lucky Craft SP100 Pointer in Shad, Perch or Blue Gill

2) Spinnerbait / chatterbait

3) Jigs & soft plastics I always use depending on conditions

Jerkbaits are money as the water cools... Last year I have a few 20+ fish days just using them.

Swim jigs and topwater stuff (Rage Shads and Toads). I do love the fall fishing, but hate to admit the summer is coming to a close. It's been a great year so far, and I expect big things this fall!

Early fall with warm days and cool mornings I fish topwaters early then cranks/jigs later

Late fall with cold mornings and cool days I fish jerkbaits/jigs/cranks/soft plastic grubs/ fast swim jigs

So that about covers it...keep throwing what you are used to...understand what happens in the fall...cooling water turns over and homogenizes...fish tend to rest deeper and deeper as water gets colder...they tend to come up to warming water during daytime to feed heavily...you sure can have a lot of fun...fish and learn.

Yea everything Tim if I dont use it it just sits around and what good is a bait without a bass on it!

My top 3 are as follows.

BUZZBAITS

T-rigged Zoom Baby Brush Hogs,watermelon/magic.I use them anywhere on the lake.

Baby hog is money as well. Fat IKA decimates for me all season.

I do the same as JFrancho and he said it best. Location, Location, Location.

When in doubt I put on a tube and drag the sucker slow and low. Not the most active way to fish, but it hasn't let me down yet when nothing else is working.

I use jigs, senkos wacky rigged, utail worms. Just keep changing baits if one doesn't work.
