It may be fall but the water is still warm and the fish are still in summer locations. Tried shallow with topwaters and swimbaits with no action but found fish on the deep weedline at 16' with dropshots.

Finesse and slow presentation definitely pulled in the bass…nothing big but they were definitely hitting. Northern side of the lake, get right into the lily pads.
