Fall smallmouth bass tips

Fall has started and the water is getting colder. I was wondering that if they will just go deeper, or if they will mostly end up going out onto the river. Where are the places for bass to stay at during the cold weather?

The only thing I could recomend is follow the bait fish. I use to fish Smallies during late Fall and Winter with Float-N-Fly on Dale Hollow and Percy Priest Lake but didn't really go till water temps were low 50's upper 40's and than the Smallies would be in creeks just back about half way back and holding in 20+ water.

Use live shad, down on the river fishing vertically over irregular bottom and you will catch smallies!
