Fall Fishing Lake Jordan
When the leaves begin to change and the cooler night air
drops the water temperature, a feeding sensation is triggered
on Jordan Lake's bass. The Coosa River, "Spotted bass bite" is
as noted in the Fall on Lake Jordan, as the Smallmouth
bass fishing is on The Tennessee River in Northern Alabama.
Fall is when the monster spots emerge, doing battle with
any angler, testing both his tackle and his patience as
well.
The spotted bass's weight class is as significant too. Each
Fall many huge spotted bass are landed, some weighing from
6-8 lbs. Their aerial acrobatics and hard pulling runs can
be a very deciding factor, when it comes to even landing
one of these fish-of-a-lifetime trophies. The Lake's headwaters
account for many of the trophy, Coosa River Spotted bass
taken each Fall season on Jordan Lake.
The upper half of Jordan Lake is made up of small pockets
and cuts, most of which are situated along the main lake.
Most of these out-of-the-current locations hold bass and
baitfish in the Fall. Visible cover still exists for bass
to relate to and for anglers to target with a variety of
offerings this Fall. On the main lake are weed lined banks,
standing timber, blowdowns, laying logs, stumps, brush and
rocky banks.
This wood and weed cover is very evident and found all the
way to the lakes lower end. Largemouth's prevail here in
the Fall, although some spotted bass and an occasional striper
are taken around these weedy banks. For less frustration,
when fishing the weeds in these small pockets, cuts, main
lake flats and feeder creeks, always use weedless lures.
Jordan Lake's weeds are similar to Lay Lake and Mitchell
Lake's aquatic weeds. Thick or thin, stringy or matted, slimy
or easily fishable, these various aquatic weed types, provide
anglers lots of lure choices to fish this Fall season.
