Points
These fish haven’t quite transitioned into the coves just yet! Finding good points with a bunch of bait was key this weekend. We positioned the boat in about 15-16ft of water cranking a Sexy Shad 6XD. The fish were staging in about 12ft of water.

Crawfish
Fished here on the morning bite, fishing some structure right up on the shoreline of one of the islands. We got 3 fish around the island then moved on to fishing some rock piles and caught 2 more. Then, around a laydown up in shallow water, I caught my personal best with a 3.8 lb bass on a red craw crankbait. Other fish were caught on roboworm dropshots / shaky heads which are killer around some of the rock piles / drop offs

Break out the spinning rods for great fall action on Falls Lake. A wacky rigged senko will catch em up. Check out creek arms with laydowns and overhangs. Flip the wacky rigged senko into the action and hang on. Fun way to catch some numbers. Spinnerbaits also work well for me also paired with an early morning buzz bait bite. Good luck on Falls.

Shad
Fished rock piles near shore and offshore and caught several bass on each one. They were schooling up on these rock piles and near drop offs. One spot had rock piles near a drop off and they were all over the shakey head with any dark colored worm (we were using a black roboworm).

We caught fish in the backs of creeks throwing a spinnerbait. We were targeting creeks that bait had moved into the back of.
