Level: 0.4 feet above 840. Temp: mid 70s. Clarity: Clear Bass: Matt Driver said the water temps on Allatoona are about two weeks behind. Temps are in the mid 70s because of the overcast skies and plentiful rainfall we’ve been having. The herring spawn is coming to an end, and bass are starting to school…
Capt. Mark Noble reports. “The Strawberry Moon has tides higher than normal, but they are not too terribly bad. The bite has been consistent across the board, but knowing where to look is key.” Seatrout: With the daily afternoon rains we’ve been receiving the past few weeks, Mark says that the salinity of the water…
Blackshear: Level: Full at 237. Temp: 76-81 degrees. Clarity: Heavily stained.

The fish bit well this week in most places. Most rivers are still swollen, except the St. Marys and Alapaha. Winds were terrible much of the week in saltwater, but the fish cooperated when you could get out to them. The Okefenokee Swamp level is great, and the fish are chewing.

The rivers are getting good in some areas, but some are still…
Saltwater: Inshore: Capt. David Newlin reports, “May has been an interesting fishing month. Redfish, trout, black drum and whiting have been biting. On May 19, the water temp was right on 80 degrees—summertime is here. June is usually a good trout fishing month. The trout are starting to spawn and are moving into the open waters…
Temp: 74-80 degrees. Clarity: 5 feet. Bass: Tournament angler Matt Driver reports, “To me, it seems like the water temperature is a little slow to warm compared to most years in the past, likely due to rain and a few cold fronts. We’re now at the tail end of the shad spawn. The bass are on…
Blackshear: Level: Full at 237. Temp: 79 degrees. Clarity: Heavy stain. Bass: Tournament angler Chris Gray reports, “Bass fishing on Blackshear right now has been fairly consistent.
