This can be a difficult time of year and most anglers react by slowing down and fishing places where they’ve been successful in the past. While that seems wise on the surface, it’s the worst decision you can make as we head into the transition. Instead, focus your time on new patterns, covering water, and fishing quickly. To be even more successful, focus your attention on the extremes of lure size by focusing on small presentations or big swimbaits.
Below you’ll find links to the exact baits and equipment we discussed in the video. We’ve even included some great budget rod and reel combos to help you fish these baits effectively. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
