This will help cool the water even more and should pick the fishing up quickly. First you need to change top water baits in size and color before you jump to another bait.
Most fishermen have a time of the year that they like the best.
Some say spring, some winter and some fall. Myself, I like the fall, as the weather cools down and the big boats are docked for the coming winter. Lake Martin starts to be lowered just as the summer ends and is taken to a low between eight and eleven feet most years. This falling water of course eliminates a lot of area for the fish to hide in and it turns the spotted bass on. I am not one for a loss of words when it comes to fishing.
