Info

Slow-moving foam lines will often indicate the water type you’ll want on during fall months. As we say, “foam is home,” and these foam line drag your favorite top water seducer through. Got foam that is thick a eddy? Even better. You may have to vary the speed and aggressiveness of your presentation when fishing topwater flies in the fall. If you are fishing your popper aggressively and the fish are not responding, try slowing down. Present the fly with a more natural, realistically behavior instead of just trying to piss them off. Make a cast, let the fly smack the water and let the rings dissipate. Pop it again and wait 10 seconds. Pop it again and skate it across the surface a couple feet creating a wake behind the fly. Then pick it up and do the same thing in the next best spot. If you do this every 15 feet on a five-mile section of river, that’s about 2700 casts and 5500- ish pops or wiggles. It’s hard work, especially if you are throwing big flies with a 7wt. or 8wt. rod. This type of fishing is not easy and being able to double haul cast will help your arm last the day and allow you to tuck your fly into the nooks and crannies. From the first major temperature drop of the fall until winter temperatures flatten out, the fall cooling trend is in effect. A sequence of cold snaps followed by warming periods will round out the fall. You won’t find a smallmouth holding in highly oxygenated water o a sudden cold snap. You may find one there in the afternoon if that pa facing and in the sun. You may also find smallmouth warming themse that have been basking in the southern sun. 162 S.C.O.F MAGAZINE
