Recorded from the boat on Lake Chickamauga, Bassmaster Elite Series pro Jacob Foutz breaks down why October is the toughest month of the year for bass fishing and how to catch them anyway. We cover fall drawdown patterns on Tennessee River reservoirs, why creek mouths and bluff walls hold bass when the water is falling, and what to throw when bass are keyed in on tiny threadfin shad: match the hatch or go big. Jacob also recaps his 2026 season and the baits that put fish in the boat on the split LiveScope schedule, talks fishing without forward facing sonar, being a winder who covers water, the grass loss on Chickamauga, pro bans in local tournaments, the 2027 schedule and Lake St. Clair without scope, plus his mindset heading into the $1.25 million derby.

Justin Kerr wins the 2026 WON Bass U.S. Open at Lake Mead, his second U.S. Open title 18 years after his first, and he did it fishing shallow without LiveScope. Justin breaks down his practice in the Overton Arm, why he fished an Evergreen Baby Jack chatterbait in Morizo pink to match tilapia in 1 to 2 feet of water, how he pitched a jig into grass holes, and how his co angler’s 5 pounder helped seal the win. We also cover tournament strategy around wind cancellations, why Lake Mead still rewards old school bass fishing while Lake Mojave smallmouth fishing is dominated by forward facing sonar, the state of Lake Havasu, and what to expect at the WON Bass Mojave event in February 2027.

Fall bass fishing is here, and on this episode of the Serious Angler Bass Fishing Podcast, Bailey Eigbrett and Adam Deakin break down exactly how to catch bass in the fall. We cover the fall transition and the "reverse spawn," when bass move from summer offshore spots back toward shallow banks once water temps hit about 60 to 62 degrees. You'll learn where to find fall bass on main lake points, secondary points, channel swings, sharp contours and the backs of pockets.

We share two fall game plans. For windy, overcast days we throw A-rigs, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, underspins, big swimbaits, glide baits and topwater. For bluebird days we work standing grass, big jigs around docks and wood, jerkbaits and jigging spoons. We also cover when to downsize for threadfin shad on TVA lakes like Chickamauga, how cold fronts and moon windows affect the bite, and why you should graph grass before you fish it.
