Alright, so I need some help figuring a fall pattern out at my favorite mountain lake in the hills of North Central WV. We're having an Indian summer right now and I'm trying to squeeze the last good fishing days out best I can. I drug my kayak up to the lake last night and started fishing with a white willow leaf spinner bait, square bill crankbait and a green pumpkin tube. I headed to the north west end of the lake where the creek lets in. I was trolling with the squarebill out one side and spinner bait out the other. Long story short I only ended up catching one 13 1/2" on spinnerbait and 9" on square. I went up the creek and tried the tube and then a worm. I could see the fish but they weren't having it.
What I also did see was lizards/knutes swimming in the water. The weren't eating those either.
I need help figuring out how to target these fish for the fall. The water temp is low 50's right now. There are steep drop offs on the east side and tall grass/cattails all around the lake. All spring and summer I was killing them on rubber worm t-rig and top water. Can you give me some ideas please!!!
