fall fishing tip.......
got out on grand lake today and man after i figured out the pattern it was a great day. i know that in a group like this with this much knowledge there aren't too many tips to offer that haven't been brought up before but i don't recall this being discussed. when fishing in the fall and winter, when you catch a fish be sure and fish that area out very well. today i went through the first hour and a half without catching a fish and then put 3 keepers in the boat within a 10 yard stretch of the bank. you may fish a bank for several hundred yards without a bite but when you catch that first one, you can get right real quick if you work that area hard. i would catch a few on a crankbait and then go to a jig and pick one or two more fish up. as for my day i culled 3 or 4 times to end up with 16lbs or so, that would have put me well into the check line at most bigger tourneys on this lake at this time of year. my fish were caught on a strike king series 5 sexy shad or bomber fat free shad in tenessee shad, and then my jig fish were caught on our thunderstruck jigs roughneck finesse jig in missouri craw. the crankbait had to be chewing up the bottom, this crankbait dives to 12 feet and i was throwing it in no deeper than 8 feet of water. just let ol' sexy get down there and shake her thing a little and they were eating it up.

Thanks for the input C-Rig. I was able to take an extended lunch and make it to the pond by my office today. After the first strike, I stayed on that area for another 15 minutes. Hooked 5 and landed 4. All of them on a brown booyah rattle jig. I don't know that I wiould have stayed on the same spot so long had I not read your post.
