Fall Bass Fishing Tips for Serious Anglers

Most bass fisherman know that fishing during the spring months is perhaps the most probable time for pulling in obscene amounts of fish. But the spring spawn is only a couple of months long, at the most. So what is a bass fisherman suppose to do the rest of the year?
Well, one option is to consider is bass fishing in the fall. But fall bass fishing is similar to spring bass fishing, in that there is a fairly narrow window of time when you can really get on top of some good fish, and that is timing the water temperature change. You want to time your fishing to when the hot summer water temperature falls into the 60s-70s, as the fall brings in the cooler weather. As the temperature in the shallow water drops into this key temperature range, the bass will come up from their deep water shelter and lethargy, and will begin to take in large amounts of food. And this is the exact time that you should be out there, throwing your best lures at the fish.
As you continue following my bass fishing tips, and the fall wears on, the water temperature will continue to fall, and the bass will start their descent. One thing to note is that there will be a point when the surface temp of the water is about the same as the deep water temp, and then bass will be hard to pin down. The bass will not be compelled to go into the shallows, nor will they necessarily dive to the depths. So you’ll find them at various depths and divers locations.
When the water temp is in the fifties, the bass will be at medium levels, lurking around good structure and cover. But once the temperature gets below 50, you will find it difficult to catch bass at all, even with the best techniques and lures. Water temperatures that cold just cause the bass to get very sluggish, and they do not go after food very often.
