Big Tube Jigs for Autumn Pike

By Tim Allard

Shorter days and cooling water are signals to northern pike that autumn has arrived. During fall, these sleek predators will feed heartily to pack on energy reserves to help them survive winter's hardships.

Equipment 101 - Gear Ratios, Thrust, and Drift Socks

Bronzeback Bonanza

By J.P. DeRose

For years I was a diehard deep weed line angler for big fall largemouth bass. I would fish until the end of November, searching for the greenest weeds in the lake.

I swore I had the greatest thing going, that is, until I was invited to fish smallmouth bass in November.
