Does anybody know what species are most active in late fall/early winter? The bass are starting to quiet down and I can’t seem to escape these small sunfish

      Largemouth and smallmouth bass are very active right now feeding up for the winter.

      yeah bends are also alot deeper than the rest of the creek at the neshaminy creek, usually there are rock bass or smallmouth bass sitting there
    4. Also look for Creek bends too, a lot of times the outer edge of a creek bend is the deepest part because the current will dig into it overtime eroding the bottom ...more making it deeper overtime. The older the creek, the deeper it is in a lot of cases especially on the outer edge of bends, Hickory Creek on Lewisville is a couple hundred or so years old so there are parts of it that are 20-30 feet deep.

      there is a spot at a lake I sometimes fish at where the bottom sort of makes a shallow divot that leads into a creek, I’ll check that out for crappie. that lake ...more is stacked with them usually. No white bass, but white perch are close enough I guess lol

    9. Crappie and White Bass in the Creek Mouths and they'll move further up once the water gets below 70° from my experience. Deeper Main Lake choke points ...more like Jetties and bridges can also be good spots to find Crappie and White Bass especially if there are sandbars or break lines nearby. Look for spots on depth charts where the lines are spread farther apart where they taper closer together on either side, that's a good way to find sandbars that you normally couldn't see, you can also look for break lines/ledges on depth charts which are particularly good when close to a deeper flat or basin.
