Fall time can be challenging as bass start moving from spots you’d find them all summer long. After throwing everything I had in my tackle box the Texas rigged Bronco Bug came through for me.

Lake Lanier bass love moving around this time of year. Never spend too much time on one spot unless you know there are fishing biting. Focus on humps and long points with the wind blowing directly on them. Good luck fishing!
