Best Fall Baitfish Lures

 Is there any time of year that bass are more focused on baitfish than the fall?


I don't think so!

Since bass are so keyed on baitfish when putting on the fall feed bag, what are the best lures to throw and increase your success?

Watch the following video and see!


According to bass pro Jeff Sprague the top five include:

  1. Walking baits
  2. Lipless crankbaits
  3. Squarebill crankbaits
  4. Chatter-type baits
  5. Jerkbait
Those may work for him but personally I would add spinnerbaits and buzzbaits to the list as we;;!

Do you have any favorites?

Getting Goosed When Bass Fishing?

I Came across a pretty interesting find when I was searching for information via YouTube on kayak bass fishing.

Here’s a dude, fishing for bass in an area with lots of vegetation (great cover right) and a couple of tag-a-long geese watching every cast… 


Everything looks innocent enough. I’ve had many encounters with waterfowl (ducks, geese & even swans (though the swans can be real nasty) where they were aimlessly swimming round the boat while fishing…  

Never really had much of a problem… 

I have to admit though, I have never had the same type of encounter as this guy 🙂 (whew!)…


I guess it goes to show… you really shouldn’t be teasing the wild critters… 

Especially if fishing for bass from a KAYAK! 

And it definitely gives a whole new meaning to the expression … getting goosed! 

Fortunately it seems everyone and everything came out OK
