Tonight seems to be the first where the temperatures are going below 40.......What this means to the back bay fisherman is the shallow waters are going to cool fast and on a drop tide will force the bait to move into deep water.
All the sedge banks that have those small little cuts that fill with water at high tide......The out going tide and cool surface water will trigger the first run of bait from the shallow waters.
The kayak fisherman can work the small mouths of those cuts using small plastic baits or rubber baits with some good results..... I would stay small right now with what you offer..... The bigger bait fish don't seem to start moving until the water gets colder in November.
The Bass are smarter then what you think.....They will line up like a buffet and pick off what ever swims past.
The bays are loaded with sedge grass and they all offer small cuts to fish......Spearing,mullet,peanut bunker and the list goes on......Cant hide from a Bass, Bluefish or Weakfish.......
Its time to get off the sofa and start fishing........... Happy Fishing
