Is It Fall In Your Area Yet?

Friday of last week water temperature on Toledo Bend in Louisiana/Texas was in the low 80's upper 70's, so right on the cusp of fall.  Not much action going on in a small friendly tournament we had: fished for 4 hours, placed 3rd out of 10 and caught one keeper at 2 pounds 8 oz, fished weed lines and docks near creeks, so maybe they are not that shallow yet???  Just had a pretty dramatic cold front come through yesterday/today dropping air temperatures by 20 degrees here in Louisiana.  That ought to cool the water and hopefully get some activity into the solid fall patterns.  The Red River/Sabine will usually runs 2-4 degrees cooler in my area than local lakes so chances are we are just starting to see a transition in the non-flowing water bodies....

I am heading out in the morning and the windchill is supposed to be 29 degrees at 7am.

 

The afternoon high is supposed to be somewhere around 50 degrees.

 

I just got some new Lucky Craft SKT crankbaits (Medium and Deep) today and plan

on putting them into the mouths of some Bass first thing in the morning.

Our water is in the mid 60's and we are going look for schooling fish that are chasing shad tomorrow. It's hard for me to rely on my electronics so much but that's how you learn.

39* when I launched this morning.

Not quite here yet, but the fish know it's close. We've had a couple of cold fronts with lows in the 50's - the first morning when they've hit has been some really hot fishing, but then it slows down real quick, and stays slow thru the next low pressure.

 

Overall though, it's been a heckuva a lot better over the last month than the summer... whew!

[JT Bagwell]

I have to tell you guys the Lucky Craft S.K.T. MR in MS American Shad is one of the best crankbaits that I have ever used. The fish were absolutely crushing it.

 

I caught so many fish on it that every time I got it hung up I was worried I would lose it because I only have 1.

This weekend water temperatures in a Reservoir in Central Louisiana was 70 degrees even (bigger drop than I expected).  Got out at about 10:00 on Sunday (Infant kept me up all night, got to sleep occasionally), caught one on a spinner bait (probably 1 pound) and the rest of the time not much bass action.  Friend went out early in the day and caught 4 in 4 hours.

Same for MN, it's felt like winter the past 5 days. We had snow over the weekend.

Finally!  Tomorrow has a forecast low of 57.  That will be the first time since March that we have been below 60.
