When the middle of the fall comes and cold fronts hit water temps drop my favorite lures to bring out and keep hamdy will be a Livingston stick master (jerkbait) it dives up to 4 ft on the jerk and suspend have ebs technology mustad hooks I also like to use strike king caffeine tubes in a white shad pattern

One of my go-to's when the temps drop is a blk/blue Rage Space Monkey on a jighead. Worked just like a jig. Not sure why but bass up here eat that better than a jig most of the time when water drops to 55 or below.

Fishin the chrome rattle trap crank low and slooooow..... tried quite a few things, this has been my only lure thats been consistent. Water temps holdin steady @ 55+/- with sunny days being the most productive.

Really isn't a bait in the box that doesn't work at some point during the fall. Once the water temps really start to cool off a rattle bait, suspending jerkbait, and a jig are my main go to baits.

A 3/4 mag trap over the top of grass.  I work it like a jig.  Just keep it going fast enough to skim the top of the grass without getting snagged.

Keitech Easy Shiner ... slow and steady gets them for me.

Chrome and blue trap pumping the rod with a steady retrieve, I've caught at least twenty in the last two weeks on this, my trap has some awesome battle scars

Here lately its been drop shot, shaky head, and senko style baits wacky rigged or texas rigged. We won the lunker in our club tournament Sunday on a weightless texas rigged senko

Pop-rs!  I caught several dozen spots yesterday using top water poppers.  I like squarebills/shallow shad-raps fishing with a slow retrieve when the water temps drop too.

 

It's too bad our temps are still above 60.   I didn't see any thing below 63 yesterday!

I don't rule anything out, BUT when the water get's into the 40's like it is now, the stuff at the top of the rotation will be a finesse jig, a small 3" or 4" bait on a drop shot, or a shaky head for slow presentations. And a lipless crank, suspending jerkbait, and a small swim bait for moving baits.

I rely on three baits when the water temps. drop into the 40's all the way until there's ice covering the surface. A Mepps in-line spinner, a suspending FatFree Shad or Norman Little N, and a white jig with a smoke colored Kalin's grub.  That Mepps Aglia is something that they rarely see, can be fished relatively slow  and it has a different vibration and flash than a bass style spinnerbait.
