    AWESOME video, Matt! I went out to Lake Fork in Texas last week and had little to no luck because I was using the entirely wrong baits and methods. I got home and watched this video. Ohhh how I wish I had watched it before going out to the lake! Even though we're still hot here, the things you were talking about in this video were EXACTLY going on. Once I watched, all the pieces came together and it dawned on me what was going on with the bass. Now I know and I'm already making plans to go back out with this new information. Thank you so so much!

    I am a novice fisherman, and this is the best, most informative and helpful video I have seen, and I've watched quite a few in the last few years. Thank you for making videos that are helpful for those of us just starting to learn.😃

    Another great TB vid! For someone who deals with chronic nerve pain, these vids are a huuuge help to me. I dont get out on the water nearly enough, and when I do, I want to make it count. Much appreciated Matt & Tim. 🙌

    Your so lucky to have the lake to yourself. Here in NC there would of been 50 pleasure boats gone by and 25 bass boats during your 25 minute video. That's on a weekday. Thanks.

    Perfect timing. Transition here began a couple weeks ago. Pads and grass are dying off, night temps are much cooler. It’s time to break that summer pattern!

  • @matthewhaas8373
    @matthewhaas8373 5 лет назад

    This is true, this video time is funny for me. I am in Minnesota & decided to try some cranking around a point off the deepest hole in the lake the other day (haven’t done much cranking this year) and I got on a killer bite! So much fun. Your videos are such a great tool!

    Never caught anything on a jig, tube or spinner. I watched one of Matt's videos where he explained how to use these baits. So I went out and used a tube and a jig (colors and presentation per his advice) and for the first time I caught bass on these lures. Thanks, Matt!

      @GeorgiaBassmaster 5 лет назад +2

      robert pasbrig that’s what most people think, that’s why more people fish in the spring meanwhile the lake will be empty in the fall. Leaves more fish to be caught by folks like me.

  • @John-uj9zy
    @John-uj9zy 5 лет назад

    For Central Ohio the magic number is 55. Once we have 3 or 4 consecutive nights in the 50's the transition starts. Cool steady rain for 2 or more days around this time of year will also start the transition. All that cool water hits the roots and its game on. Around here maple tree leaves are the first to start to change color. I've noticed the buzzards group up and start their migration at the same time. I work outside almost everyday. There's a crisp clean breeze. The transition this year came a week or two earlier than last year.

    I started watching your fall videos from 2018 a week ago. You guys are the best. I’m probably going to watch this video a dozen times in the next month. Tied on a finesse jig with a rage craw, a shakey head and a bluegill jackhammer a week ago and immediately got bites. Used the shakey head to locate and the jig to get the bigger bite. 👊🏼👍🏼

    Once early October hits I put flipping jigs away an mainly use swim jigs with slower retrieve an longer pause. When you fish fast in the summer it's great but as it starts to cool slow down retrieve an lengthen pauses 7 seconds an up if 7 seconds too short add 1 second each attempt

    Hey just purchased a few of these lures you suggested. Cant wait to try them out. Definitely been seeing a little change here in NW Arkansas. Keeper large mouths pushing the shad back in a pocket rear of coves
    and going to town on them late evening. Caught 5 in a row 15" to 19 " Did not get a bite from locations I had been catching them the last several weeks back. Not a big change yet but I definitely see a slight change in activity for sure.

    I’m in the north and the grass actually started to grow back instead of dying like you said I was fishing the grass and wasn’t catching anything on a whopper, lizard , jig , and even Texas rig I was walking and was about to step on a live craw I picked him up hooked him and the bass killed it I went from 1 fish in 2 hours to 17 small mouth and 5 largemouth in just another 2 hours I’m trying to find patterns because the new water I fish is a reservoir and it’s super deep and you can’t put a boat on it the grass is so thick and bad I can’t throw anything and can’t figure it out it’s super rocky so it sucks because square bills , jigs , and shaky head isn’t working

  • @ethanowens7687
    @ethanowens7687 5 лет назад

    Great stuff as always guys! A few follow up questions:
    1) If your fishery does not have shad as a bait source, but does have pan fish and tilapia - does this still apply? If not, how do you break it down?
    2) If panfish and tilapia are major fish sources, is matching the hatch as critical? What I mean is if panfish are the primary bait forage, should you be fishing panfish based colors and less white/black/chartreuse like on topwaters or other lures?
    Thanks!

  • @joegrande4848
    @joegrande4848 2 года назад

    The transition already started last week. I been slowly working baits an lures. Also with fishing slower so I can find rock or brush. During summer I've paused 3 to 5 seconds an got bites I've already noticed I've had to pause longer an slow retrieve down some. I still vary my retrieve but when I reel my line in its a bit slower.

  • @joegrande4848
    @joegrande4848 2 года назад

    Always use 1 cast an area an keep moving. You'll covor alot more water. When doing this as it gets cold slow down retrieve an lengthen pause. Yes do this if you winter fish, that 1 cast per spot may take longer but that's a good thing keeping it in strike zone longer. You can use the winter style retrieve in hot hot 🔥 🥵 days in the summer as fish will be in covor to stay cool an will slow down due to extreme heat

  • @danieladame8595
    @danieladame8595 5 лет назад +1

    Great video and perfect timing! I live in Southeast Wisconsin and those consistently cooler nights have just begun over the last week. I have been looking forward to the fall transition impatiently for a while. Due to when we usually lose the ice and the 2 month period that bass fishing is closed, we normally don't get to fish the prespawn here so the next best thing is the fall transition. Do A-rigs work during the Fall transition? It seems logical to me if the bass are pinning bait fish that it would be a very natural way to not only locate them but get those reaction bites,

It's time to get them big bass groupies and make sure they all pile on at the same time around a tree, stump or grass line. Just don't let em start flipp'n into your heart man. Tim be a bad ass tho. He's the one getting them big girls that gotta be finessed to hit. Just make sure to hit all the humps and to run that big ole monster in the holes and get to the back of the pockets...
