Bass are hanging out close to shore still with the warm weather recently. Fish are sticking close to cover like rocks and submerged timber. Squarebills and lipless crankbaits are working well.

I wanted to get on the water at dawn to hit the top water action...but things happened and my time on the water got started at noon...Ugh. However, regardless of what time you're out on the Sacramento River, if you want to catch some fish, you can always count on a wacky rig. The most action came at about 10 ft of water, with some slow twitching a Yamamoto Senko. I've always found that watermelon with black and/or red flake does the trick. Largest one was 2 pounds, but they're all fun to catch.

Slow day at Paupack. Spent the morning tossing an s waver around looking for a big striper. Ended up landing a few large and smallmouth bass. Lake was busy and boat launch was hectic. Water still 60 degrees.

The fish in Guntersville have really decided to move shallow! Obviously there is still a schooling bite, but this day we caught over 50 bass punching! Our bag went 23 pounds anchored down by a 6-2 big fish! - We needed an ounce and a half weight to get through some of the thicker stuff. Most of the fish hit on the first fall, but some were a little more finnickey. We were pretty far north in the lake but I guarantee other matts are starting to heat up by now. - The Xzone Lures adrenaline craw is a go to to immitate bluegill in this little bit cleaner water in the back of these creeks in Matts.

I used several crank bait but the perch lure attracted the large trout. I was able to land an 18 inch and 24 inch rainbow trout

Just a regular morning throwing the ultralight around. These bass are still hitting the worms and are starting to get fat and happy.

Find them at mouths of coves 2-3 hours before sundown and they move out deeper into the night I’ve seen a school of them over 100 feet wide of what looked like boiling water smashing alewives at the surface( near the point down brawley school road)

Cold front came in. Water was 73 degrees, though. Caught a few on the 3xd crankbaits in shizzle and gizzard shad. Started to rain, so we called it a day.

Points
Largemouth were loving moving baits on this warm fall day. There was a lot of grass still in the chain and fish were grouping up on the edges of flats and underwater points. The 3 hot baits were a 6th sense crush squarebill, 3/8oz jackhammer, and a white megabass SV3 spinnerbait. Running these baits over the top of the grass got a lot of strikes (and some bonus walleyes).

Fished a club tournament and fished docks all day. We were not ble to get any fish in any other bait in any other area. Docks on points with boats were the best producers. Baits had to be carefully skipped under docks into the smallest areas to get fish.
