Fall Patterns | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Fall Patterns | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "There are several concepts as to what triggers the tendency of bass to make major movements in the fall, but I have always considered two major players.
   The first factor is independent of all the others and this is simply the shortening of daylight periods. The second and more variable aspects are the cooling effects of the first major frontal passages and particularly the effect that cool nights or rain associated with cold fronts may have on water temperature."

Making your own fishing jigs for fun, survival and profit

Making your own fishing jigs for fun, survival and profit: "Jigs are a type of fishing lure which can be described as a large single hook having a painted lead head near the eye along with several strands of silicone attached to the head to form a skirt. They are intended to be used with soft plastic baits (aka “trailers”) which resemble crawfish, frogs, or other small critters; but trailers are sold separately as each angler prefers certain brands, colors, styles, and sizes. Professional anglers often use jigs because they have a solid reputation as a lure which attracts trophy-winning bass, but jigs can also catch other kinds of fish such as salmon and catfish."

These baits are among the most versatile of all baits made today. They are very effective all year, but in the fall they seem to do even better. "
