September Bass Fishing Secrets: What The Pros Won't Tell You

Stop fishing August spots in September! Here are the 3 places bass move to when water drops into the 70s — plus the 1 swim jig that catches them all from a kayak.

In this September bass fishing breakdown, Chase from Reel and Roll shows you shallow flats (2-4 ft), creek channel swings (4-8 ft), and the last green grass holding oxygen — and how to fish a 1/2 oz swim jig with a paddle-tail trailer through all of them with a steady retrieve and rip-and-stop pause.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
• Spot #1 – untouched shallow flats with dying grass
• Spot #2 – creeks, ditches & channel swings bass use as highways
• Spot #3 – last green milfoil/hydrilla + shade that holds 20 fish vs 2
• Swim jig retrieves: slow steady grind + pause when you tick cover
• Kayak advantage: float in 3 inches, no motor noise, anchor right on the break

GEAR IN THIS VIDEO:
• Rod: Trika 6X 7’3″ Medium Heavy Fast
• Line: 30 lb straight braid
• Bait: 1/2 oz swim jig + paddle-tail trailer (Bluegill / natural shad, green pumpkin in stain)
