[QUOTE="Crow Terminator, post: 4974808, member: 220"] Yep, I agree....the best time is coming! I have caught more fish since this latest cold front than I have in all of Sept and October. In the spring a cold front will shut things off for a day or two. In the fall...seems like the fronts actually trigger the feeding frenzy. It can be hard to concentrate on your target species in the fall because you can quite literally catch multi species and never move spots. Yesterday I was fighting the post front wind and the wind had baitfish blown into the back of this pocket in a cove. The wind was brutal...cold and fighting kayak position and white caps. But those predator fish were GORGING themselves on those baitfish. I was catching 15 to 18 inch skipjack, largemouth bass, stripers, white bass, and even caught an aggressive blue cat on a lipless crankbait. All in the same spot. Fish breaking everywhere. And crappie time is here too...and will get better IMO when it gets even colder. They even taste better when caught in the winter. The fillets are firmer and not mushy. [/QUOTE]
