Bass In The N. Fork?

[eric1978]

I am curious about the smallies, later in the year - October does the fishing get tougher? I am trying to plan a trip with my son who loves to fish for bass. Trying to decide what to do where to go.

Depends on the day. I've had great days in October and horrible days in October. The fish can get a little finicky when they are transitioning to their winter holes. Sometimes it seems like they are going nuts and eating everything. Fall has been a little hit or miss for me. The water gets clearer, which doesn't help. Falling leaves can also be a pain. But they're still there, they're still eating, and they're still very catchable. Patience and confidence are key.
