Fall Transition - Where Do The Bass Go? ( And How To Catch Them )

Fall transition comes much earlier than most anglers realize. If your fish are disappearing, your transition has already begun! Don't get left behind this year! Let us show you exactly where the bass are headed, and exactly how to catch them!

The Fall transition is incredibly confusing for bass fishermen because it happens despite the day time temperatures staying the same. This particular transition is triggered by night time temperatures and length of day. As soon as your nights begin to cool off, your bass will be on the move. Seemingly overnight the fish will school up and start chasing bait. 

Don't be caught off guard this year! As soon as the night time temperatures drop, start making adjustments. Focus your time on large flats, backwater shallows, and coves where bass can corral baitfish. This is an amazing time of year with huge schools of bass aggressively chasing smaller minnows, but only if you know where to look. 

Below you'll find links to the exact baits we discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes, colors, as well as the gear to fish them effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
