Pro Tips to Catching Bass in the Fall + WBE Champions Preview
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.📌 Check out Serious Angler Network lifestyle and podcast apparel here: https://seriousanglernetwork.com/📌 Click here to start your FREE trial of Omnia Fishing Premium PRO: https://omnia.direct/SAPremiumPRO📌 This episode is brought to you by our amazing partners:• If you're a fishing guide, check out the Bloodknot App here: https://www.bloodknotapp.com/• Amped Outdoors Lithium Batteries (https://ampedoutdoors.com/)• RecLending (https://www.reclending.com/): Looking to buy a boat or RV?
