Blue Ridge: Level: 13 feet low. Temp: 64-65 degrees. Clarity: 7 feet. Bass: Guide Eric Welch reports, “We’ve been catching some fish on topwater using a Whopper Plopper and a Strike King Sexy Dawg Jr. on main-lake points and flats.

Burton: Level: Full pool. Temp: 69 degrees. Clarity: Clear. Bass: Capt. Wes Carlton reports, “The bass bite has been good the last couple of days.

Chatuge: Level: 5.5 feet low. Temp: 64-66 degrees. Clarity: Clear. Bass: Guide Eric Welch reports, “If it’s not a windy day, there has been some fish breaking.

Clarks Hill: Level: 5.8 feet low. Temp: Low 70s. Clarity: This is the time of year when the lake is turning over and that makes the water cloudy. Bass: Tournament angler Josh Rockefeller reports, “Fish are still schooling on the main lake and are on the move to the backs of the creeks as November…

Jackson: Level: Full. Temp: 72-77 degrees. Clarity: Stained. Bass: Tournament angler Brian Lee reports, “Topwater is still producing a few fish, but you will make a thousand casts for two bites, the right bites. A squarebill Little John with some chartreuse in it is my go-to crankbait. Fish any hard structure you can find. A…
Lanier: Level: 4.3 feet down. Temp: 68-72 degrees. Clarity: Turnover is still happening on the lake, so water clarity is clear where it is finished to weak coffee colored where it is still going on.

Nottely: Level: 9.2 feet low. Temp: 68-72 degrees. Clarity: Clear. Linesides: Guide Jeremy Seabolt reports, “Fishing has been off the charts.

There…
