Since my last published report from end of September, the bites, the locations, and the predictability of each day was consistent almost daily. Now into October, fishing conditions are changing much quicker due to recent coldfronts and cold overnight lows. It’s difficult to stay abreast of what is happening now because these next few days could be completely different from what I am writing today.
