In years past, the Berkley Choppo has been a key bait at this event in the fall. Numerous prize-winning fish have fallen victim to the Choppo out over open water. This is a great bait to reel through open water and down shorelines when there is a slight chop on the water.
Here is a look at other topwater baits offered by Berkley:
- J-Walker
- Bullet Pop
- Cane Walker
- Drift Walker
Along with topwater, crankbaits and hardbaits are another popular bait for anglers to use out on Kentucky Lake during the fall. For the same reasons anglers choose topwater lures, crankbaits and other moving baits are also a big player. These hardbaits can be fished along rocky shorelines and around shallow brush to trigger bites from bass feeding up on shad. The full lineup of Berkley crankbaits and hardbaits are comprised of baits that can be used to target fish at any depth.
The Berkley Stunna is a bait that we’ve heard anglers mention more and more often over the last couple of years. This jerkbait is ideal for targeting suspended bass and keying in on fish that can be seen using Garmin LiveScope.
Another moving bait anglers mention catching fish on during the fall at Kentucky Lake is the Berkley SquareBull Crankbait. During the fall, simply covering water can be one of the most productive patterns for getting bites. Fish tend to be spread out chasing bait, so tying on a crankbait and burning down the bank with a squarebill crankbait will be a popular pattern next weekend.
Here are several other hardbaits from Berkley that could be key at Kentucky Lake:
- Berkley Hit Stick
- Berkley Frittside Crankbait
- Berkley Dime Crankbait
- Berkley Warpig Crankbait
Swimbaits and soft plastics are another great option for fishing during the fall at almost any fishery across the nation. Whether you’re flipping shallow cover, finesse fishing for finicky bass, or tossing big swimbaits across sloping points, Berkley has a wide array of swimbaits and soft plastics for anglers to use out on Kentucky Lake.
Located on the Tennessee River, Kentucky Lake offers great offshore ledge fishing and areas for anglers to target near the main river channel. These are the types of places where anglers can use their electronics to locate fish, set up, and target bass with a big worm. The Berkley PowerBait Power Worm, in the 7 inch and 10 inch models, is the perfect bait for soaking around brushpiles and structure to get big bites.
