Shallow.

All you need to worry about in the Fall is chasing bait fish....rattle trap and top water bite, big ones in shallow creeks in about 1-6ft of water.

right at 3.

Yeah but the bass still have to be near structure, just fish deeper they are there, if the ponds almost dried up you may wanna get those fish outta there before they suffoicate.

Me and a buddy caught a limit this past wed at falls...on crankbaits.

Really good day of fishing this past Wed. all me and my buddy threw were crankbaits, the bite was pretty slow in the A.M. believe it or not, and picked up around 11A.M. to 2P.M. fish a drop off near the main channel and were on fire for about three hours. It was awsome.

Happens to the best of us.

Depends on if it's a high or low pressure front, me, I always go to top water, after the rain stirs up a lake and or a pond I fish shallow. Cools off the surface temp somewhat, the shad come to the surface and I break out the top-water baits.

You should've posted this in the Southern state thread, but anyhow, Kerr, just this year the lake has been comming back to life. Meaning they had a freashwater disease that affected the bass and most would die or never see adulthood,now in the early 90's bassmaster elite series did fish kerr and it produced a lot of really nice bass...to make a long story short, all the bass now are for the most part, healthy and better numbers of quality fish have been caught this year. My advice is get a topo map of this lake, there are two so depending on where you are putting in, would be great if I knew where you were putting in at, I know for a fact members on here from VA and NC know a lot about this lake and will be glad to help you out. Where are you putting in at?

For me, spinnerbait colorado blade, a big one, gold,skirt color black or white and chartruse. I use darker baits and the bright colors I use are red and orange.

So high rock lake is hurtin, eh?

I normally use the scents that are already on most lures.

Most of the time, you have to spend over a certain amount.

Don't get to carried away lol, at least get it outta your system while you are young...

Fast and slow depends on the water temp and barometric pressure.

A professional resume,it's a start.

Keer must be comming back, they had a lot of diseased fish that kept the bass from reaching decent size, glad to hear it's comming back to life.

Color only affects MY fishing presentation depending on the lighting condition, wind and chopyness will only make me wanna change to the lure that fits the condition. If it's dark outside I use darker colors, and the water is murky or staind. Clear I use brighter and natural colors sunny or cloudy. The only time I actually change the color is at night, darker the bait the better.

Not only spinnerbait, try colorado blade.
