Fishing Reports
Sinclair: Level: 1.8 feet below full pool. Temp: Upper 60s. Clarity: Slight stain. Bass: Good. Aaron Batson reports, “Baitfish have moved to the very backs of creeks and coves. With baits matching the size of prey, good numbers of bass can be caught. When bigger gizzard shad are found, I have been using Buckeye Lures’…
Seminole: Level: 1.7 feet below full pool. Temp: 70 degrees. Clarity: Clear. Bass: Fair. Matt Baty reports, “The bass on Seminole have been a little frustrating to figure out lately. The cooler temperatures should eventually make the fish bite better. There has actually been a decent lipless-crankbait bite going down on the main lake. To…
Saltwater: Inshore: Excellent. Capt. Greg Hildreth reports, “The nearshore fishing for the bull redfish is very good now and should last until mid to late November. I am getting these fish on the bars and shoals around St. Simons and Jekyll Island. The bait of choice is a live pogy, but they are getting harder…
Rabun: Level: 1.8 feet below full pool. Temp: 57 to 64 degrees. Clarity: Clear. Walleye: Good. Guide Wes Carlton said there’s a good consistent walleye bite on Rabun right now. He had a 9-fish day recently, including an 8 1/4-pounder. He said early in the morning the fish will be up shallow feeding in and…
Oconee: Level: 3 feet below full pool. Temp: Upper 60s. Clarity: Slight stain. Bass: Good. Aaron Batson reports, “Baitfish continue to remain in the very backs of coves and creeks. Rat-L-Traps and spinnerbaits are hard to beat. Later in the month, as the weather cools and bait moves back out, use the same baits on…
Nottely: Level: 9.7 foot below full pool. Temp: 63-65 degrees. Clarity: Clear. Bass: Good. Eric Welch, of Reel Job Fishing, reports, “We’re catching fish all over the lake. You can start out on the main-body points throwing a shaky head with a Zoom Trick Worm in green pumpkin and a 4.5-inch Roboworm in morning dawn.…
Lanier: Level: 10.9 feet below full pool. Temp: Mid to upper 60s. Clarity: Clear. Spotted Bass: Very good. Ryan Coleman reports, “The recent cool down has thrown us full into the fall patterns. Fish are all over the place in depth, as I am finding fish in 2 feet of water and 50 feet of…
Jackson: Level: 0.5 feet below full pool. Temp: High 60s. Clarity: Light stain. Bass: Good. Aaron Batson reports, “Try a white swim jig around floating docks in the creeks just off the main lake. A slow-rolled compact spinnerbait in the same areas could also produce well, especially on windy days. Later in the month target…
Hartwell: Level: 8.3 feet below full pool. Temp: High 60s. Clarity: Light stain. Bass: In November, fish a drop shot rigged with a Zoom Swamp Crawler, a Buckeye Lures Pulse Jig rigged with a Zoom Fluke Jr., a Lucky Craft Pointer 78 and a Lucky Craft Sammy. Concentrate on the offshore areas with all of…
Eufaula: Level: 2.9 feet below full pool. Temp: Low 70s. Clarity: Good stain. Bass: Fair. Sam Williams said the fish are fattening up and looking a lot more healthy than they did this summer. The bite is still pretty slow, although there are fish to be caught. First thing in the morning, there is a…
