As lake traffic drops, anglers can find strong action for walleyes, bass and crappies with sonar, jigs and moving baits.

  • The next couple of months offer some of the finest fishing of the entire year as fish go on the bite in a big way when fall arrives and progresses.
  • With school and fall sports starting, lakes experience less traffic and fishing pressure, creating conditions where good numbers of fish are caught and some of the season's biggest specimens find their way into landing nets.
