Fishing Report, Lake Guntersville 9/22/18

I believe we have reached the prime time for the frog bite, its good, there’s grass-mat activity and there are enough opportunities to feel comfortable that you can catch fish and get enough blow-ups to make a day of it. We had several good solid 5 to 6-pound fish strike our frogs adding to the fact that it is time to focus on the frog bite. 

Add a few more baits to the arsenal besides the SPRO frog, Picasso buzz baits, Missile Bait 48 stick baits and Tight-Line swim jigs and you can address all the patterns we found fish on this past week. Once you get off the mats the ideal depth was about 8 to 10 ft. looking for active chasing and working the bait fish. We’re going to see some rain and cooling temperatures this next 10 days and it should really put a positive stamp on the rest of the fall fishing.

Come fish with me no one will treat you better or work harder to see you have a great day on the water. I have guides and days available all fall, and we’d love to take you fishing. We fish with great sponsor products, Lowrance Electronics, Vicious Fishing, Duckett Fishing, T&H marine products, Boat Logix mounts, Navionics mapping and more. 

If you have been calling me asking is it time for the frog bite, call me and get your date booked; it’s time!

Some Fall Fishing Changes

Habits change in the fall these changes and these pattern movements in fall fishing occurs more in how the largemouth bass changes their habits, and why they relate to open flats more than any time of the year. Reason is simple, bass will more often follow the forage or bait fish than any other time of year; this can make them harder to locate as most anglers are use to looking for structure to hold them. 

The lakes are always full of bait fish in the fall and bass move to the baitfish for easy feeding and ignore their tendency to hang on structure.  Point being is don’t ignore open water points or movement even though it appears to be removed from grass lines or structure that you are traditional use to fishing. This is one of the biggest reasons that crank baits running from 5 to 8 feet of water are so effective in the fall. You can be fishing hundreds of yards off structure and catching fish in the fall just because the bait have moved to the open waters. Long extended points where you’re removed from the traditional structure become great places to catch bass this time of year. Baits like rattle baits become once again effective, as open flats may not be covered in grass, and their tendency to chase becomes a pattern.

Have you ever wondered why in the fall it seems that the bass turn on and off like a light switch, the reason is very simple the bass feed in large groups in the fall? They feed two maybe three times a day, the rest of the day they suspend and become very lethargic in the warm water. Your fishing habits in the fall can many times be timed like clockwork as bass can be feeding one minute, your catching fish and then gone and not feeding the next. This is why I fish so many reaction type baits in the fall, because outside the feeding times the bass can be very hard to catch and the only way is to trigger their instincts to react. 

Don’t let the slow times of fall fishing discourage you, just look at some nontraditional areas away from structure, work reaction baits and you will find the bass.
