Largemouth bass are starting to get ready for fall. This means that they can be found up shallow as well as out deep. Dropshotting points with robo worms or dragging the bottom with yamamoto football jigs will be effective out deep. Topwater baits such as Zara Spooks or Ricos will start to become more effective as it cools down. Megabass jerkbaits or Strike King crankbaits will also get bites. Stripers are still out deep and can be caught on small swimbaits such as a Little Dipper on a jighead or larger flutter spoons. Target the 40-70 foot range but keep an eye out for boils on the surface. All species will start to push shad shallow into coves here soon.
