This week on Outdoor Journal Radio, Pete is joined by Steve Niedzwiecki in the studio as they prepare for their trip to Hastie Lake.

With that out of the way, Pete and Steve break down their plans for Hastie Lake and give some insights into how they approach fall bass fishing. Topics discussed include: why cisco’s are a good sign for bass fishing; stopping fish from jumping; why you can’t ignore open water for fall bass fishing; deep water largemouth; September being the new August; why fish eat more in the fall; dodging smallmouth to catch walleye; fall smallmouth structure; baitballs as structure; rippers; sleeping in trucks; Steve’s go-to Muskie baits; fall trolling speeds; how to effectively explore new water; the versatility of a wide-gapped hook; making your own contour maps; trolling for bass; finding humps without a chartplotter; bluff walls; and much more!
