My son and I have been targeting what I call "pre-holdovers" on ultralight tackle recently with very good success. Also get a mixture of white perch and hickory shad on each outing with one of the 3 species usually dominating the catch. Not sure if it's luck, an up cycle of the perch, down cycle in bass, or some other factor, but this has been a banner white perch fall.
