Somebody pleeeease tell me this is true! Ugh, of course it's not.

Fall actually thought by most to be the best time to be out on the water and start slaying the bass.

I hope you have had more time than I have to get out and experience the fall bite as the temps have started to drop. If you've been out once in the past 6 weeks then you've been out more than I have. :(

In this issue:

• Busy or not, I pledge to get out this month. How bout you?
• My October tactics
• More on Bass-Fishing-Source.com
• Are you on Facebook?

My pledge to myself :). Join me:

And if you manage to hook anything, big, small, few or many, we would like to see and hear about it. Come by and share your story at our Bass Fishing Pics page

Those of you who have been able to get free and enjoy the fishing, come by and let us know whats going on too!

My game-plan for October bass:

We should be finding bass shallow because the bait is shallow. Here are some tactics I will be keying on when I head out.

• I will be looking to hit up wind blown points and flats, with focus on any part that has some form of structure, be it a brush pile, rock or drop off. Casting to the bank and working my way back.
• I will be trying primarily spinnerbaits, suspending jerkbaits and jigs. Jigs with a soft swimbait trailer that provides a lot of movement should work well.
• I will also see what the backs of the creeks have to offer along with some of the coves.
