Five Best Fall Baits for Fishing the Southeast

Andy Montgomery explains what the fall transition means for fishing the Southeast and details five essential lures you need to take full advantage of the season.

 

 

When I think about Fall fishing in the Southeast, I think about one thing: Shad. I want all Shad imitating lures. Shad will be migrating to the banks, creeks, the big coves, and the pockets. I want to imitate that. What five baits would I want to do that? Here they are:

STRIKE KING TOUR GRADE SPINNERBAIT

On those windy, cloudy days, when you need that flash to draw in the strike, there is nothing better than the Tour Grade Spinnerbait.

 

STRIKE KING THUNDER CRICKET

One of my favorite all-time baits is the Thunder Cricket. I love this one when it's bright and sunny. Great for target fishing and fishing in a lot of shade.
