Fishing this week has been fantastic for crappie. I fished a half day yesterday with customer Earl and Trip Moore. We caught around 80 crappie. Our fish all hit tube jigs at 2-15 foot. depths. This action will continue on through to February. Water temps are still holding around 49-50 degrees which is perfect for [...]
The crappie action is on. I went out yesterday with buddie John Whimpy from J.W. trucks in Buford. We launched the boat around 10:00 a.m. and fished till around 3:30. We ended up with a little over 50 of the nicest crappie Ive seen come out of Lanier in a while. The size of the [...]
Striper actions is still good on south end of Lanier. Usually November and December the stripers start to migrate up the Lake and concentrate in the Gainesville areas of Lake Lanier. This year things seems a little different as we are seeing most of the fish now below Browns Bridge and as far south as [...]
Striper action on Lanier is starting to improve. Its been a tough month for the stripers as the lake is still in the turnover stage. As the water temps drop into the mid 50′s the stripers should get more predictable and move into the main creeks on the upper end of Lanier. This week I [...]
Fishing for stripers is at its peak. We are catching big stripers and big numbers. We boated one fish last week that weighed right at 30 pounds and had several days that we boated over 30 fish. Live Bluebacks fished at 60-80 ft. depths are producing the best for the stripes. Today was a little tough [...]
Striper activity is picking up. The last 4 day’s we have seen the striper action really start to kick in. The best pattern has been flatlining live bluebacks on main lake points. I have also been catching big strings of spotted bass on the bluebacks . During April and May you will find the spots and [...]
Striper action is heating up on Lanier. Most of the action this past month has been late evening and night with long A bombers and Mcstick jerk baits. Although last week day time action picked up. For the stripers try flatlining live bluebacks back in the creeks. All the fish will be shallow this time of [...]
Headed out to Lake Hartwell Tuesday after receiving a good report from my buddy Preston Hardin who guides on Hartwell. Monday Preston caught around 40 stripers and hybrids in mixed schoolslate Monday afternoon. We got up on Hartwell around 10.30 a.m. and tried to crappie fish first. Preston said all the striper action has been [...]
Crappie fishing is still excellent. Fished a half day charter last Saturday and boated around 65 fish with some really nice ones. The crappie are starting to move back into the creeks around blowdowns where they will so0n spawn when the water temps and moon phase lines up. Had a good trip to Hartwell last [...]
Fished a full day charter today with ol buddy Ron Lindley from UPS. We chased the crappie all day with ok success. We ended up keeping 56 crappie and probably boated around 60 or so. I thought Lanier might be a little muddy after the weekend rain but lake conditions were not that bad. Further [...]
