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 […]
Went out Monday with long time customer Jonathan Carter. Fishing was a little tougher today but we managed to catch around 55 keeper crappie. Jigs produced all the action. The Bobby Garland shad worked well and also caught some on 1/24 oz. chartruese halflies. The depths of the crappie are still the same at 5-25 […]
December action on Lanier has been good. Water temps have got down to the mid 50’s making the fish a little for predictable. I was out last week and caught stripers in the creeks on the South end of the Lake. Guy’s are catching stripers North also. Seems that good schools are North and South. […]

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 […]
Went crappie fishing yesterday with customer Mark Hey. Fishing was excellent. We boated well over 100 fish with a few in the pount range. Most were just good hand size crappies, excellent eating . The water temperature was 50 degrees yesterday which is around 10 degrees warmer than it was last year at this same time. […]
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 […]
