Fall is an exciting time to be on the water!
The fish are feeding more and for longer periods of the day, the weather is nicer and this is one of the best chances you will have to catch a trophy. However, there are some tackle changes to consider if you’re going to make that happen.
In this video I’ll share what fish are keyed in on and show you what lures I recommend for the fall season along with how to use them.
Enjoy!
Top 5 Lures You Should Be Using This Fall
Recommended Tackle
- Ultimate Fall Bundle (All of Fall’s Best Lures at 20% Off!)
- Moonwalker Topwater Lure
- Skinny Lipper Sub-surface Twitchbait
- 5″ Mulligan Bomber
- Polk County Tweaker Soft Plastic Twitchbait
- Jerk Shad
Rigging
Key Takeaways
- Fish are dialed in on baitfish schools coming through that include some of the largest bait of the year.
- Fall fish will be on the move, so you need lures that will cover a lot of water and be versatile enough to change with the conditions.
- Start of in the mornings with a topwater like the Moonwalker until the sun comes over the horizon.
- Switch to a subsurface lure like the Skinny Lipper if it’s shallow or a twitch lure like the Polk County Tweaker rigged on a jig head if the water is more than 4 feet or so once the sun comes up.
- For power fishing a large area in the least amount of time, use a large paddle tail like the 5″ Mulligan Bomber.
- When you find an area holding a lot of fish or you’re finding fish that are skittish, a Jerk Shad does a great job of working the area.

Thanks Pat, it is time to use bigger bait, I’ll keep those in mind 🤙🏽
Thanks Pat, great advice for Fall, time to step up my sizes on baits
I thought I saw a video of Joe and Luke fishing the back inner docks because it saw too windy that particular day. And they were using these lures that looked like small blue claw crabs. I would love to Aguire some of those lures if you guys sell those. They were soft plastic lures
