Mike Iaconelli’s Top 4 September Baits: North vs. South – Must-Have Tackle for the Fall Transition!

Hey everyone, Mike Iaconelli here, back in the shop with a brand-new video! This month, we're diving into my top 4 baits for September, focusing on how to navigate the tricky transition from summer to fall. I’ll break down my top picks for both the northern and southern regions, ensuring you’re equipped no matter where you're fishing. Up north, I'll explain why a spinner bait and crankbait are ideal for covering water as fish start moving toward their fall pattern, and how to choose the right baitfish colors and blade styles for different water conditions. Down south, we’ll talk about why a big jig and a bluegill profile swimbait are essential as fish continue to feed on larger forage like crawfish and bluegills. I'll show you why going bigger with your jig and swimbait is crucial in September and share some key rigging and fishing techniques for each bait. September can be complex, but with these strategies, you'll be ready to tackle whatever the fish throw your way. Don’t miss out on this essential guide to fall transition fishing!
