Fall fishing the Ottawa River!

[rex.stpierre]

Hey guys...

With the weather getting chilly, the fish should begin to go back into cold weather patterns.

All the guys on tv say, this is the best time for big walleye and big bass.

Would anyone be willing to share a few confidence tactics they have, lures or patterns.

This is my first full season fishing the Ottawa and I intend on making the best of the this up coming fall!

Toss out '' Big '' Spinnerbaits for Big Bass.....Also PignJig work great this time of the year. Just an Idea for ya

A variety of both types of lures has been added to a stowaway in my fishing vest!

buzzbaits for big small and largemouth. dropshot for big walleye.

Drop shot with worm? minnows? both? gulp alive? soft baits? colors?

Still a bit early for the big walleye to start fattening up...usually from Thanksgiving on produces the best, at least in my experience.

November is best. The last two years, I've had my best days in mid-November on nice days.

agreed. Late october early november the best time for big fish and numbers. Anyone use rattlebaits for walleye? Very underrated bait, it usually catches the biggest fish of the day for me.

What time of day is best for fishing in November and what areas would be best for shore fishing?

Thank you
