This right here is all you need to catch bass in the fall Well folks so today didn't go quite as planned what I plan on doing was going to a new pond Throwing some topwater throwing some jigs catching some fish and then teaching you how I caught those fish like I normally do Well, it's just one of those days It's one of those days where it just the things did not go right for me If you want to see the footage from this morning Click to this time it'll be kind of at the end of the video and you'll see what happened things went bad in a hurry So since the video didn't turn out as planned I figured I still want to teach you guys how to fish how to catch fish Especially right now which is coming up to be the fall. It's Labor Day the weather is cooling down Air temperatures cooling down fish removing shallow out of their summer haunts And I'm gonna go over the top five fall bass fishing baits They'll like to use to catch fish in the fall So this list is gonna be somewhat brief. It's literally five lures You can probably throw a hundred different lures in the fall and catch just as many fish with these are the five But these are the five lures that I personally catch the most fish on in the fall now It is early fall. It's still September I don't think fall officially begins until like mid or late September So it is kind of technically early fall there are baits that work well early fall mid fall and late fall I'm just gonna go over the ones that work in general for me If you want to know the best baits for early fall mid fall late fall check the link down below to my patreon account Every single month I send you a list of baits for that specific month and go over the different lures The different colors to use and how to use them so check the link down below if you want to know that But for today it's just gonna be your generic top five baits I'm gonna start off with top water and then I've got two moving baits and then two bottom baits So for top water a lot of different things work you can throw walking baits You could throw popper you could throw buzzbaits, but for me personally for me hands down the best one is a walking bait Now this one in particular is just your standard kind of walking top water bait like a spook You can go with some multi-join to ones like this that have a lip that'll kind of swim a little bit You can go with small little spook juniors You can even go with poppers like I said here, but generally day and day out just throwing a walking bait works really well Early mornings and late at night as far as location of throw that bait You want to stick to around grass edges if you still have grass where you're at you want to throw them around those weed lines Otherwise, I just beat the bank with anything around rocks or if there's like a lay down tree that I can throw it next to any type of cover But generally the shad move shallow in the fall in the bass are not too far behind them So early morning late in the evening any type of low light conditions those bass are shallow feeding on those shad So as colors go you want to stick to natural shad if you got shad and you're like if you don't have shad You only got blue gear maybe some some greens and stuff like that any any type of natural just match the hatch when it comes to top water So that's top water that's that's basically all I've got so walking baits is just my number one So my number two bait is is a moving bait. It's a reaction bait This is another shad profile lure and that one is a shallow square bill crankbait You can see there just it can be a 1.0 can be a 1.5 It can be a 2.5 it doesn't really matter Shatter generally larger in the fall because they've had all year to grow So don't be afraid to throw the bigger base kind of like this dude here That's a little bit bigger than your 1.5 That's probably like close to like a 2.0 2.5 anytime you're fishing in the fall is a great time to be throwing a square bill Because it deflects off cover well. So if you're fishing around Rocks or you're fishing around brush or anything like that It it comes through the cover well as well as it imitates a shad perfectly It looks exactly like a shad that looks exactly like a shad as far as colors again stick to shad stick to blue Gail if you've got blue gail just stick to natural colors in the location I love fishing these around rock anytime I can get them around rocky points Especially if the wind is blowing rocky points jetties dams anything like that There's burning a little shallow crankbait catches tons of fish now on to bait number three bait number three is another reaction bait and it also imitates a shad But it is a little bit different than your square bill and the one I'm talking about here is a spinnerbait This is a staple in every bass fisherman's box Everybody's throwing a spinnerbait and you normally see me throwing chatterbaits The one time I really focus on spinnerbaits is in the fall The reason why I do that is because a spinnerbait imitates a school of bait fish That blade is a fish that blade is fish this skirt is a fish It imitates a group of fish which in the fall they group up So you want to imitate a group of bait fish versus a chatterbait only imitates one Shad doesn't mean you can't catch them on chatterbaits But I think the big bass especially the big bass target the groups the balls of bait That's why often people catch them on Alabama rigs So instead of throwing an Alabama rig and looking like an idiot I throw a spinnerbait colors stick to white It can be gold blades especially if the water is a little dingy There's some gold blades in there otherwise silver blades work really well Where a spinnerbait really shines is on windy overcast conditions Fear fishing and it's cloudy and it looks like it's about to rain and the wind is just howling You want to pick up that spinnerbait and you want to go to the nearest wind blown rocky point Rocky bank anything like that and there's cast a spinnerbait and burn it stop and start it Just make it look like shad or get any kind of blown up into those rocks And I can guarantee you a basketball crush So that is my top water in my two reaction style moving baits So let's say the fish aren't playing your top water game They're just not interested and they're also not chasing bait fish up shallow Maybe it's sunny maybe it's not windy and there does not really bite in the reaction stuff That's when you want to go to one of these two options Both of these are bottom baits and they fish completely different from one another So the first one I like to start out with is a big fish catching machine This is a bait that you can use your around but I really emphasize it in the fall And that right there is a bass fishing jig This right here is just a new tech jig you guys know that I like throwing new techs And it's a crawmitation It looks just like a crawfish is like a brown craw color a tabasco craw With a little green pumpkin craw trailer And let's say that there are not any shad in your lake More than likely the bass are going to be feeding up on either blue gale or crawfish In the case that they're feeding up on crawfish is definitely when you pick one to pick up a jig You want to throw this around any type of cover, any laydowns, even docks But where I like to throw it is around rocks For some reason the crawfish just love to scurry in the rocks in the fall And the bass are not too far behind them The jig is honestly one of the most versatile fishing lures out there You can flip it, you can skip it, you can punch it I mean you can literally do anything with it, you can drag it So if you're going to only pick one bait to use for the fall It's definitely got to be a jig because you can like I said you can flip it and pitch it Really drag it or you can even swim it It's to imitate a blue gale or crawfish that's trying to get away Anything like that One trick that I do in the fall especially is I add rattles But I basically add two little jig rattles to it And for some reason the fall just seems to work really well So if you're searching for that big bite the big bass You're trying to get something over five pounds I would definitely recommend going to a jig You'll get a lot of bites but you'll also get the quality So let's say the fish aren't biting the jig They're being really finicky And maybe it's dead calm, there's no wind in it Sunny, what bait do you go with Well normally in the spring in the summer You guys know I'd go into like a weightless Senko But for some reason the fish tend to hug the bottom in the fall When that happens I like to pick this dude up And I actually feature this in my last video And I caught a nice fish on it And that is your standard shaky head worm This is something that you can as well throw a year round Catch fish on it year round But in the fall a big shaky head worm like this Something that's maybe like six, seven inches long Go with a natural color like a browns or green Or green pumpkin, watermelon red, that type of stuff You want to go with a light wire finesse shaky head And if you can find any offshore rock piles Especially any rocky points Whether they're windy or not wind blown Whether it's sunny cloudy For some reason shaky heads work really well If it is cloudy I would recommend throwing the June bug color Anytime it's cloudy you want to throw like a darker color And if it is sunny then you want to go to like a water melon Or like a green pumpkin So those right there are my top five favorite fall fishing Basel, like I said If you want to know more in depth stuff I've got nine of my favorite baits for just a month The September posted up on my patreon accounts To go check that out I normally don't like to do these types of videos Where I just sit here and talk Because I get it They are boring But part of my objective in doing YouTube videos Is not only to entertain but to teach you guys how to catch fish And what better way to do that Than to tell you the exact words that I used to do So if you enjoyed this tips video If you really like these like how to Top five bait video type
