Fishing - Bass Fishing Tips During The Fall Season In East TexasFall is a great time for fishing in East Texas. As the nights get longer and the days get cooler the water temperature in the lakes starts to drop. When this happens, the bass start to move up into shallower waters so they can fatten up for the winter. This fall feeding frenzy makes for some excellent bass fishing and a great opportunity for you and your family to catch a lot of fish. A lot of the younger bass will start schooling and feeding on shad just out from the brush lines in some of the creek channels on Lake Livingston in Polk County. These creeks will typically range in depths of about 10 to 20 foot of water. Schooling bass are fun to catch using a silver spoon or a chrome rattletrap. Just throw out into the middle of the school and hang on. These are not going to be big bass but because of the numbers they will be fun. Plugs Plugs on the other hand are crank baits. These lures are designed to resemble the body shape of a fish and are made to run underwater. These plugs need to move to make sure that it will catch the attention of fishes and therefore lure them into the hook. Spoon lures Spoon lures are flashy fishing lures especially when it catches the light. It also moved in a wobbling or darting direction, this adds its ability to catch attention of the fish. If you’re fishing for some of the larger bass, move up into the brush and start fishing with soft plastics in about 3 to 10 feet of water. You also can catch these fish using a spinner bait. Here’s a little tip I learned a long time ago. If the sky is clear then use a spinner bait with a silver blade and a white skirt, but if it’s an overcast day then use a gold or copper colored blade on your spinner bait with a chartreuse skirt. I know this sounds simple, but it really works. Fall fishing can be a great time to catch some good quality bass. So don’t waste the opportunity, take your son or your daughter with you, take the whole family, and get on the lake and see how much fun it is to catch bass in the fall, because fall fishing can be some of the best fishing of the entire year in our East Texas lakes Sinji Mikami presents the following posts
