Fall bass fishing

Leaving Saturday from WV to come down to Kerr to bass fish for 11 days. Going to stay in Panhandle creek. Sounds like the fish aren't bitting real well. I have fished Kerr in the spring but I have never been on Kerr in the fall. What patterns are catching fish now and where should I be fishing. I hope that I don't have to go a long ways from panhandle creek to find fish.

Hey I found a tip that could help you, all though it's not from me. here it is below.

This is a quote from

"MikeR"

The bass on Grassy are chasing the shad pretty heavily this week, early morning topwater, then as the daaay progesses go to carolna rig a green pumkin lizard. Or any crankbait that is the size/shape of the butterbean shad in blue/chrome rattletrap are just one of the favorites. Good Luck and tight lines..MikeR...

Re: Fall bass fishing

Panhandle area has been real slowwwww,does not have the numbers it once had for what ever reason,sugest you fish from grassy up past the bridges try to find some stained water if you can, cranks and rigs best bet and jiging spoons 25-40ft in the clear water panhandle to the dam.Good luck JW
