Cranking Shallow Pockets in the Fall

As bass follow baitfish like shad around throughout the fall, there are many days bass will chase and corral baitfish at the backs of small pockets and coves…

Crankbaits, especially shallow-running squarebill crankbaits are a great tool for rooting out these bait-chasing bass cruising the pockets and coves in search of their prey…

Take a moment and listen to what Bass Pro Stephen Browning has to say about his approach to cranking shallow pockets in the fall…

As the bass chase baitfish into the backs of coves and pockets, is there really any better bait to throw other than a crankbait?

Thoughts on Fishing the Wiggle Wart

There are numerous crankbaits on the market today; some meant to fish shallow, others deep; some meant to be fished in cold water, others when temps are soaring…

One “old time” crankbait model was created to fish under a variety of conditions but really shines during the cool-water period when bass are keying on crayfish… It’s definitely a favorite bait of mine during that time of year!

The crankbait I’m talking about…

Listen to Bassmaster Elite Pro Brandon Palaniuk as he provides the ins and outs of working this outstanding crankbait :D

And in this video, the folks from Angling Edge TV show you how to locate the weedy hotspots in this case relative to milfoil.

Personally I catch more bass "out of the grass" each season than from any other type of cover or structure!

How about you?
