I like fishing slow year round, especially in the fall. My favorite bait is a 3/8 small body Cabin Creek Salty spider. I concentrate rocks and lay downs, even stumps. Joe in Kentucky.
They are definitely grouped up tight right now. Found a spot the other day that my son and I caught almost all our fish on in one tiny area. The rest of the day, not much at all.
The bass are schooled up in my area as well. Drifted down the bank for about 45 minutes without a bite, then got 3 fish on 3 casts next to a clump of timber in the water. Hopefully there will be fish there again when I head back out!
I fish a medium retrieve, but to answer your question, i have to say I fish slow since I'm using soft plastic. Even a fluke i reel in at a medium steady retrieve. Joe
I like fishing laydowns with shakey heads or t rigs the most but I'll break out the crankbaits, paddle tails and top waters in the fall and fish faster.
I used braid with flouracarbon for years. Then, one day, while wading a creek, I found myself catching 30 fish on very light tackle 6lb monofilament. I got home ripped all the line off 7 reels. Loaded the baitcasters with 10 lb monofilament, the spinning reels with 8 lb monofilament. No trouble in wind, rain, or snow, don't have to worry about my line having memory, flouracarbon is notorious for that looks like a slinky on the water. A friend of mine had a jingle for it, won't sink if it's kinked. Joe
Do you like to fish faster or slower during the fall?
Cooler evenings and not sweating my ass off, I'm all for it.
Some cooler temperatures would really be nice!
Best explanation I've seen yet. This video is a great starting point for anyone having a hard time fishing in the fall.
Thank you so much!
Best video I've seen about fall fishing! So simple and straightforward. Great video LB!
I appreciate that!
Fall and spring fishing are the best! Good video LBF ✌️
The fall is a really great time of year to catch some nice bass!
The nights here have gotten pretty cool. First frost isn't too far off. Gonna fish all I can before it gets too cold 🥶
It's starting to get chilly in some places!
Wow an eye opener, I love to fish UL, and I was coping with wind and big bow in my 10 pounds braid, so for windy will use mono and crankbaits
Light braid just blows all around in the wind!

Fishing slow and steady can get a lot of bites!
As always, great video sir. Definitely going to apply these tips and hope to bring in more bass. Tight lines!!
Thanks! I'm happy you liked it!
It's been really windy lately. Fishing a light setup is really hard so I've been using a shaky hef and a bigger ned head.
Sometimes just going a bit heavier can make a huge difference!

I love a lipless crankbait in the fall,but I'm always ready with my good ol dropshot if the wind dies down,or the bite slows.
Having more than one technique is always a good idea!
Great video!! Awesome tips!!! Stay Safe & God Bless!! 🤠👍
I really appreciate you watching!

Having several methods to choose from is always a good idea!

Use what works for you!
I always fished the same two spots but now I always try to keep moving. Instead of waiting for the fish to come to me, I try to go to the fish.
Agreed! Always need to keep covering water!
