      The fall feed is in full swing. A good topwater bite can be had in the first hour or so of sunlight. Once that bite dies, lipless cranks with a yoyo retrieve or deep cranks fished shallow to deep will produce.

      Fall transition is in full swing. Bass have definitely pulled back into the thicker, greener grass. Most effective has been casting into shallow with slow hops toward drop offs to the thickest clumps of submerged grass and ripping through. Also, immediately after the cast letting the jig sit for a few seconds has produced some bites as well.

      9-3-21. Started the day @ 0900. It was a slow morning, the only bite was a squeaker from a dock. The wind picked up around 11am and I moved out to 8-10 ft. Fishing the white "Chatty Kathy" across the top of submerged grass. Over the next two hours, I was able to pick up 3 keepers and lost a fourth. And still got her on trailer before the rain!
