Lake Nottely Fishing Report – September 2020

Nottely: Level: 2.5 feet low. Temp: 83 degrees. Clarity: Clear.

Linesides: Guide Jeremy Seabolt reports, “We have been catching lots fish from Point 7 to the dam. There are some big schools of fish holding on a 50-foot bottom. We are catching fish about every way you can. The herring bite is the best for numbers, but trolling u-rigs midday pulled 135 feet back is also working. We have also been catching a lot of small fish on top early morning and in the afternoon. They have been busting on top in 1/2-acre spots and hitting 3/8-oz. bucktails and flukes. September is one of my favorite times of the year to fish Nottely. The water is starting to cool down, and the stripers are starting to eat everything around to fatten up for the winter. Look for fish in main-lake coves and deep points, and keep an eye out for schooling fish. The Bait Shack on Nottely has all your live herring needs.”
