During the dog days of summer, if a bass angler goes out and catches three or four nice bass, it's a good day on the pond. In the fall, however, the catch ratio goes way up. Elite Series pro Randy Howell pegs fall as one of his favorite seasons for bass fishing, particularly if he's on the water with some wind at his back.

On a calm day in late fall, establishing a cohesive pattern can be one of the toughest things to do. Enter a little wind, however, and things can ripen quickly. "The old saying, 'Let the wind be your friend' is always important, but even more so in the fall," he says.
