Fall on the Mississippi River the bite has been awesome. With low water conditions it's tough to get around to places but with not a lot of current it's easy to maneuver on your trolling motor. Looking for current breaks on wing dams, backs of sand flats, and any eddy. My number one bait by far was a Topwater walking bait, especially for finding fish. Sometimes you needed to slow down with a fluke or a swimbait, but almost all would eat a topwater.

Smallmouth are moving up to start bedding. We were able to find some deep in a cut along rip rap bank. They sometimes won’t bite a jig or commit to it so throw back in with a wacky rig to clean them up!
