I've been reading this forum and trying to learn from the experts on this site for a couple of years now, but it's my first time posting. Just wondered what thoughts everyone had (especially Mr. B and anyone else that fishes the Shell Knob area often) on the upcoming cold snap. I am coming down this afternoon and staying through Sunday. Wondered if I should brave the cold on Fri/Sat or settle in with a hot drink and watch my Jayhawks get smashed again...
More specifically, will the first big cold snap of fall push shad/bass into shallower pockets and up creek arms, or will it drive them deeper and turn them off?? Will the ideal presentation be slow, slow, and slower....or will they be in a "feed up for fall" mode and gorging aggressively?
Finally, I owe two years of thanks to everyone that posts on the site and offers specific instruction on the how, when, and where to catch 'em. Thank you all ( X 2 years) !!
