Striper action has been very good this month. Live Bluebacks and trout are producing most of the action. The trout bite should get better as the water temps drop into the low 50’s. With the warm weather we have had water temps are 7-8 degrees warmer for this time of year.  We are averaging 15 […]

Crappie fishing is hot  on Lanier and Oconee. This is usually a little early but the crappie have already started moving to the winter holding areas. Last week I was out with a customer, Professor Michael Erwin from Ga. Gwinnet College. Michael was doing a study on the crappie population on Lanier. That day we boated 62 good size […]

Striper action is getting better everyday. I went out yesterday and saw lots of moving fish under the birds in the mid lake area. They were a little finicky, we ended up boating 2 good fish in the 15 pound range. We hooked up on the stripers with bluebacks on a long flatline. We caught some huge […]

Crappie fishing remains excellent. Fish still think its spring time with the warmer February we’ve experienced.  We are having 80-100 fish catches  on the crappie most days. All the crappie are holding at 6 ft. depths and shallower hitting light weighted tube jigs. Last Saturday we got into some stripers fishing trout on downrods at […]

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 […]
