Largemouth BassTechniqueHard Topwater (Prop)SeasonFallStructureBaitfishWater temperatures are sitting about 65 to 68 degrees. Strong winds today it was sunny with cold winds. The wind helped carrier great distraction on top water baits. Bright colors such as green yellow and white are making a wonderful appeal for bass. I've made great appeal for a catfish on today's adventure. Using a consistent slow retrieve made to most progress in these conditions presented so far going g into the colder seasons. Just remember Morgan lake is a lakes we can fish all year round. We have this ability due to the plant producing warm waters to the lake all year allowing anglers to fish all year long like myself. Hope the tips help and the information help with future fishing adventures.

Largemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonFallStructureBouldersWater Temps are cooling dramatically. Strong bites on drop shot yesterday not very many bites in anything without live baits such as worms. Chatterbait got fewer bites but still had little success
Species
Largemouth BassTechniqueShallow Diving Crankbaits (0-6')SeasonFallStructureBaitfishWater levels are really low. Gather a few bites on shallow dive crankbait. Water temp was 68 degrees. Nothing solid with flukes nor with necko rigs. Tried flipping trees and rocks no luck. Once Water level comes up getting closer to winter we may have better success.

Largemouth BassTechniqueSoft Body Swimbaits (Large)SeasonFallStructureLedgesWater Temps are cooling off sitting at 71 degrees today windy conditions not to much luck today. It seemed to be decent bits using sift swim baits fishing at 4 to 12 feet deep. Didn't have much success without soft baits or even live baits such as worms.

Largemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonFallStructureBouldersThe fish are finally staring to move up shallow and are really starting to focus mainly on shad and shad shapes. We caught them the best dragging around isolated grass patches and boulders. Fishing should continue to pick up with the continuation of cold nights.
Species
Largemouth BassTechniqueLive Bait RigsSeasonFallStructureBouldersWater temperatures are cooling down. Today was at a lower 70s sitting at 73 degrees. Cloud cover and slight wind forecast for the day. Live bait had better attraction considering seasons are changing and Temps are starting to fall a bit. Mercy water. So when using a chatterbait it was good to run a swim bait trailer with a pausing retrieve. Live bait was better to run its course with enough slack for bait to travel but not so much you love the bite. High caught for the day was 3lb. 9oz.
Species
Largemouth BassTechniqueBladed JigsSeasonSummerStructureDocksWater Temps was 76 degrees light windy day. Chatterbait with a constant retrieve had major success. Top water had little success. Also had some success with a Carolina rig as well with googans bandito bugs
Species
Largemouth BassTechniqueBladed JigsSeasonSummerStructureDocksWater temperature high today at 79 degrees. I think that is do the the power plant fill port it tends to keep the lake hot. It was a hot sunny day light wind to the northwest direction. Tipping chatterbaits with a swim bait anchor seem to have lots of success in today's catches. Biggest of the day was a 2lb. 12oz largemouth.
