"Tough Fall Bassin"!

[RB]

I'm convinced that Tag is an intelligent trout that knows how to use a computer and put all that info out to keep bass anglers going for bass instead of shifting over to trout. Great post

[BassFanatic]

good info tag very detailed thanks!!

Sparky: I've been fishing 40 to 45 feet deep. Haven't found any suspending fish.

BB: LW is a big lake man. I'm not surprised if we haven't bumped into each other.



Tag definitely puts a new perspective on things. Sounds like there's hope left in the bass season. One thing for sure, I believe the smallies eat in a smaller window time period as the water gets colder. This time of year I like heading out later in the day, a little warmer.

I need to invest in some new electronics, maybe I can put in on my x-mas list.

Yeah I'm running with a Humminbird 300TX,..not the best but I'm not gonna upgrade just yet,..hoping the "newer" Bass Boat I purchase will already be set up with some "nicer/newer" electronics,..definately a must though!

Here's one for you BB. Some of the best electronics available, problem is it will be a rough riding SOB

Thank you for the positive feedback, guys. I'm glad to hear you found a few of these tips helpful. I have been getting a lot of questions lately regarding fall smallmouth so I wanted to post some basic strategies for targeting them this time of year.

DEZZY DEZ, I met you at Lake Whatcom and Lake Washington this year when I fished with the Hawg Hunter crew. I should have worn a name tag. KVD of Washington? I appreciate the kind words but there are dozens of much better anglers in this State that spend 5 times the amount of time on the water than I do. Maybe one day I will have the time to travel and compete against the best in our State. Until then I will just talk about fishing on the forum and get out on the water a few times a month.

The only reason I catch big fish on 95% of my trips is because I always go to the body of water I feel is best for big fish based on the current conditions. Fishermen that fish a lot of tournaments don't always have that same luxury.


Good luck to all you die hard bassers fishing this fall and winter!

Tag,..regardless of where you're ranked/rated with the "Best of the Best" of Washington State in MY book you're TOPS,..Not 2 many,..if any at all,..would invest time on a Forum the way you do,..your Treasure-Tips are much appreciated and you're a valuable resource for WL.COM! Thanks!

Hittin Lake Wa this morning with BassFanatic,..gonna see what we can find,..BF is gonna use the soft-plastics and D-Shot,..Jig FBH 28'-36',..I'm on a recon mission puttin in work for some Big Bass,..marking spots on the topo for future reference ie. points, ridges, creek channels, humps and flats,..if I do get hit then that'll be a bonus,..throwin 8" BBZ-1 FS all day,..who knows,..maybe I'll get some follows,..even a strike,..either way hittin the whole water column and covering allot of water! Can't let the time of year or the weather dictate if I Bass or not,..!

BB

[Bisk1tSnGraV]

Good luck out there and have a great time on the water. Looking forward in hearing your report when you and BF get back.

[BassinBomber]

Well the trip on WaWa turned out pretty productive,..threw the 8" BBZ-1 all day,..what a work out,..had 2 follows but Bass didn't commit,..BF threw the palstics and landed 3 Smallies they were slots but just barely worthy of pics,..all were caught in 30'-35' on the D-Shot,..marked some hot spots on the topo for future reference,..LOL,..I had 2 stick 2 my game plan even though I wanted to switch up and take some Bass since BF was landing them,..but alas I kept chuckin away with the Swimmy,..nice day on the water!

BB

[Bisk1tSnGraV]

Great job BB and BF ... sounds like a successful day out on the water!

Nice Job on sticking with your Game Plan BB ...I will p.m you some advise later today .. Nice work boys stay at it ..

BBD

[BassinBomber]

Thanks guys,..it was really tough 2 not switch up and start throwin plastics and jigs especially when BF is hauling them in like he was,..Lake Wa has the potential 2 produce Bigg Bass and I really want 2 find them,..they are there it just takes some hard work and the right attitude,..I guess when your partner is landing them it makes it a bit hard 2 focus,..but I did what I had 2 do and surveyed the areas I chose,..but all in all it was a very productive day on WaWa,..LOL,..even though I didn't land any Bass,..LOL!

Way to stick with it guys.

What do u mean by slots? Smallies don't have a slot anymore, just largies.
