Don't Make These 3 Fall Fishing Mistakes!

[@mattfleming86]

I just wanted to tell you guys how much I appreciate you. I was a serious fisherman in my youth. Parents had a little houseboat with a bassboat attached and it was so important to my life. Sooo many hours on the water. I got older and fished as much as possible.. but life is life. As time went on, it got away from me. I just exited a long term marriage with a woman who used to be very amazing but lost herself along the way. Toxic. Abusive. The last 5 years were a straight loss for me. A big part of getting myself back.. getting back to my roots.. and rediscovering happiness has been my time on the water. You have made me a substantially better fisherman. I have rekindled a love for a hobby that brought me so much joy along the years. I am fishing a local "tough" lake and catching very very solid fish. You guys are absolutely my favorite fishing channel, and what you do for the whole community is such a gift. Thank you.

Glad fishing could help man. What's your wife's name ?

[@blairlechtenberg5498]

Great info as always!!! You and Matt are phenomenal at being teachers and more obviously fish catching machines. You two changed the way me and my 33 year old son fish. We used to get excited about catching 5-6 fish an outing, over the last year after seeing so many of your videos, we’re getting 15-30 each time. Can’t thank you two enough, you’re the epitome of awesomeness!!

As shallow water fisherman, big wakes do amazing this time of year in inches of water

[@davidcummings506]

I just wanted to thank you for your tips and advice on crankbaits. I used your advice on movements and techniques and caught a true monster just when I thought my season was done.

[@jesseboyden3119]

This was genius tim. Teaching situational stuff through your most recent fishing trip videos. Love it. Do more of that style

[@FreedomFishing]

Another key note to checking the big and small extremes, and different sounds, focus on the cadence extremes. Really fast or dead slow.

[@terranceleonard68]

I have made all of those mistakes but I learn from those mistakes that I have made I am from Orlando Florida I have learned that bass behavie differently In different bodies of water I am a bank fishermen so I can only fish cover that's available to me most of the time I might catch one or two fish out that area. Grass or a overhanging tree or if there is a isolated patch of grass of some kind o isolated cover whatever it might be anyway the mistakes I have been is using the wrong technique or fishing to fast so it cost me fish so I have learned to Recognize the things I did wrong on that day so I completely understand where you are coming from I am no pro just a guy that's works a 9 to 5 job but bass fishing is my passion and you guys have inspired me to fish more and to learn more about the sport of bass fishing cause to me it's not about the money it's about my passion

[@nancymills5993]

I bank fish too and love it and have learned a lot also. Stay safe in Florida with the hurricane bearing down on you. Our prayers are with everyone.

[@terranceleonard68]

[@freemarlochip]

Amazing video! Can relate so much. This year I have greatly improve my success Bass fishing by changing up and trying new things BUT it's so easy to fall back to your normal spots using your normal setup that at some point you caught decent fish and you wonder why it's not working this time around. Awesome vid.

[@caseysaunders2137]

I'm guilty of that for sure.

[@caseysaunders2137]

Maybe the TN river system water gets cooler faster and that speeds up the transition. I'm in N. Texas. Lowland reservoir. Surface temp 79. No rain / No current. It won't be "fall" until Halloween by my definition. But they are definitely way more active since mid Sept. The TB underspin, KVD 1.5 sq bill, and soft jerkbait have been consistent but as you noted, rotating baits is important. I am so OCD I made a list of my rods and what bait I'm tying on before each outing. Sounds stupid but it helps me .... or least builds my confidence.

[@andrewmoore3995]

September was some of my best fishing up north here.

[@luckymanshirley7044]

Same here in Indiana. The bite has died in the last couple of days. Hopefully it picks back up soon

[@terranceleonard68]

I forgot to mention I have learned to adjust to the behavior of the fish and that's a lesson I learned from listening to you guys

[@adammitchell3462]

My summer fishin was phenomenal! I caught a PB and immediately broke that record with a 7 pounder, plus some muskies!However, since the transition started I can't even get a bite...that's crazy

[@secretbassrigs]

Perfect time for wake baits! Baby Bucca Shad or full size. Or Bucca Nachos, 5" Burritos, Rat baits, Crawlers..... Cast parallel to the shoreline.

[@wilmerpruitt6324]

Great tutorial video Tim, well done. I can testify to going shallower than you normally go can be a pleasant surprise. Just last week I threw a Vision 110 Matte Shad in shallower water than I ever would normally. As soon as it landed it got swallowed up by a 23 inch, 5lb 9 oz largemouth. Thanks for the video.

[@Trump2024musthappen]

Nice 5/9 is my second biggest fish size 6/9 is my biggest . Rhode Island that's huge here lol

[@donprater2754]

Tim thanks for the great info!

[@Justin_Mooney11]

Needed that boost up thanks Tim grinds been brutal , weathers been worse 8 in a row no go cuz of wind smh , definitely good confidence booster to keep goin good stuff as always $

[@derekspicer1143]

I would love to see a video setting up the A-Rig out of the pack. Seem like I can’t get mine to swim well

[@jv59]

Matt did one a couple years ago. You should be able to locate it

[@fishwithjeff805]

Maybe a decade ago lol a we have been watching a few episodes clearly 👊​@jv59

[@johndynneson662]

Up here Minnesota Mitty Mississippi River. Bass walleye will chase your bait right too foot of water. Sometimes even parking the boat fishing from the shore produces better bits. Just saying.

[@jasonromo4416]

Still triple digits here on the left coast! Gonna have to save these "fall fishing" videos for a month or two!

[@mikeyrivers3728]

I beg to differ, snooze and loose on these highly pressured waters, the trout eaters will be back in few weeks for crying out loud

[@WizCudder1]

Thank you Tim!

[@garyplowman5838]

Tim great useful info thank you bud 👍🏻

[@4freedom1993]

Still waiting on fall transition nevada / Arizona border. Water temps around 82 still and overnight lows haven't dropped

[@caseysaunders2137]

I'm in N. Texas. Local lake currently 79 at the surface. These zero cloud mid 90's been holding in still. Should start to see some changes deep into Oct. I"ve mowed grass here in Dec so it's a crap shoot.

[@Daiwa_Is_King]

Ahh good ole willow beach

[@TurdFerguson1000]

Great info

[@toddpossum]

Thanks!

[@timhigdonoutdoors5276]

We’re gonna miss the fall fishing here in North Carolina too much debris, floating in the lakes

[@enonek2960]

Tim, as we transition into fall I always wondered when fishing from the bank if areas with an abundance of dead leaves should be avoided because they're a waste of time (due to lack of growing vegetation), or if I should give them a cast and hope something cruising by is willing to bite?

[@twifishing]

If the lakes I fish (600 acre lowland) don’t have shad, are these largemouth still going shallow? For bluegill?

[@lpbass8369]

thanks tim,what was that glide that was in the mouth of that big bass last week.

[@FasaSengphachanh]

How do you like your transitions from California to Tennessee? I am planning on doing the same.

[@raytubach8988]

Thank you Tim. I am second ☝️

[@joncarter8334]

Tim a few questions North East angler going to clear water Kettle Pond 12'-15' visibility. Little to No cover. Alewives, perch & trout. Points, flats,cuts, steep drops bottoms are sand with little weed cover. Where would you start, baits? Also is the (A-rig, glidebait,)effective in that clearer water? Thank you

[@Dcaridi]

Maybe a long shot, but do you mean the one in Groton? Just curious if there’s another VT person here!

[@rayvanacore4889]

FALL? Hey Tim ,Its still in the upper nineties in the Sacramento are 102 yesterday.

[@holmeselectric9]

What's the water temp

[@bassinbilliards6279]

A couple years ago? I ordered it the first week last year 😂

[@Jakethefishingguy]

98% of my fishing this year has been power fishing in less than 5 ft of water. A lot of time it was casting right at the bank line and it was ate.

[@Tal1k_215]

How do approach a river during the fall transition

[@buellrichmond2842]

Have you guys shown your tackle room in a while? I bet it's a monstrosity 😅

[@secretbassrigs]

What camera are you using Tim? It's really High Definition

[@rayvanacore4889]

Although tournament at clear lake win was 93.56.

[@debtheuniversityofgods2842]

First person to see your video

[@terranceleonard68]

I do take bass fishing seriously just to become better at it

[@sunwukongmonkeyking5561]

First!

[@tayloralexis1504]

Do you remember bank fishing? Asking for a friend... 🙄

[@300hiker]

Spend a couple hundred bucks on a kayak and get out there!

[@NoFro-TL]

@@300hikerwould love to see them do kayak videos as well. They mention fishing on one but we never see it.

[@Trump2024musthappen]

@@NoFro-TLthey have some videos for sure . Seen them

[@jackolson8775]

I do ! Me & my buddy spent 5 years bank fishing, then wading, before getting a boat. We used short rods, 6' or even 5'6" in order to cast better without getting caught up in the branches from the trees around us. Boats are cheap right now, real cheap. While we did have some fun from shore, it's nothing like being on the water .✌🏼

[@HughJassill]

Kayak is the way to go, friend. You gotta get out there, it’s a game changer!

[@stephenkendrick5904]

Lol “fishing violation 2 min penalty”

[@brandonsmith606]

Apparently I make more than 3 haha 😂

[@stillinyaisstillinur3300]

Remember watching a Commercial is another way to show Channel support it helps with the algorithm and YT will send Tactical $$$

[@funkymojo111]

😅these guys don't need another dollar from me watching a commercial. They have so much income from residuals, fish guiding trips, creating and selling baits, and whatever else they have on the back burner. They struggled in the early yrs back in Cali but they are the kings of fishing now!

Sounds like you’re a lifetime member of Grinder

[@funkymojo111]

I may be last to post but I'm the most environmentally friendly fisherman; use public transportation, don't burn fossil fuels with a big ass boat, and pick up all your trash.😅
