Today, I’m fishing at Lake McMaster, a legendary strip mine-turned-fishery in Western Illinois. With only one hour to fish before meeting up with friends, I had to make every cast count. This lake’s ultra-clear water made for some exciting sight-fishing, especially in the shallows where I spotted some big largemouth bass lurking!

After testing a few techniques, I switched to a hair jig sent to me by a subscriber—and it was exactly what I needed to hook the biggest bass of the session! In this quick trip, I’ll walk through my setup, from my Old Town kayak, Shimano DC reel, and Humminbird fish finder, to my best early fall bait choices like jerkbaits, wacky rigs, and hair jigs. If you’re looking for fall bass fishing tips and want to know how to catch more fish in a kayak, this video has plenty of insights.
