bass talk
so lets talk bass fishing. shallow weedy nj lakes and ponds. early fall (right now). as i'm sure we all pretty much know trying to research species/seasonal strategies yields a lot of information that we, in NJ, can't really use as we have a pretty unique fishery in general as far as forage and weeds go.
so anyway I notice a pretty significant decrease in the effectiveness of certain summer patterns as the days get shorter and the nights get cool. Wacky rigged senkos under and near structure will still work but it def starts tailing off.
I'd like to think with fish getting more aggressive (in general...in theory haha) searching lures would be the best bet. I've caught fish on spinner baits, chatter baits, top water buzz lures, swimbaits, etc...but as far as largemouth bass fishing in shallow weed lakes I don't think i've really ever found that go-to strategy for the early fall. at least not to the extent of light jigs in the spring and wacky worms in the summer.
