Largemouth BassTechniqueHard Topwater (Popping)SeasonFallStructureBaitfishIn the fall, chase the bait. Watch for shad and follow their movements - probably into the shallow creeks. Start with a popper/plopper in the morning and as the day progresses, start working a little deeper with a swim bait or spinner bait.

Threw out about 20 foot from the bank in 8-12 feet of water. The big ones were hitting the neon cranks all morning.

The water was down about 6’ for a storm coming in. Between 6am and 9am, it was overcast with light wind out of the west. During that time, I found an area with matted grass and lily pads in roughly 2’ of water. The fish in the picture weighed 4lbs, 14oz and came out of the lily pads for a SPRO popping frog. I caught 3 smaller ones (ranging from 2 - 3.25lbs) using a Berkley popper (shad colored) around the edges of the grass mats.

Noticed some bait fish jumping around about 40 foot off shore so I decided to follow them and throw this medium diving crank towards the bait fish. Caught a couple little largemouths.
