Fishing Reports
There were some great reports this week, but now the off and on rains have set in for several days. The different sections of rivers will rise and fall differently and some will muddy up. Guess right and it will be a lot of fun, as the temperatures are in the peak feeding zone for…
The rivers are dropping out, tides are better in saltwater, and fish in ponds, lakes, and the Okefenokee are feeding with reckless abandon. Pretty much pick where you want to fish this weekend, and you should catch fish. Pick right, and you may just have your best trip of the year. Altamaha River: The panfish…
I’ve not been around a lot this week due to fishing in the Everglades, but the reports I did receive were good. The rivers are getting back down and those bites are heating up at different rates. Guess right and you could be in for a great day! Altamaha River: Seth Carter fished the backwaters…
The warm-up that is coming to an end as I write this has been great for most bites. A few trips this week were a bust because of what I call the “it’s just too pretty” factor. Sometimes the fish don’t know whether they’re in a winter or spring pattern, and they are hard to…
Wow! What a difference a week can make… again! This warm up has gotten the fish fired up all over the place. The smaller ponds and shallow systems have really fired off, and saltwater is just a little behind. Fishing should be great this weekend wherever you want to fish. Altamaha River: Seth Carter and…
I hope that each of you is having a wonderful Christmas season! It’s been good fishing this week for the few who reported. Altamaha River: The crappie bite was fantastic before water from the rains up-country hit this week. Brentz McGhin and I fished together on Saturday, Dec. 14, in the lower river and caught…
It’s been both cold and warm, and both calm and windy this week… typical December weather in southeast Georgia. Folks almost always find some biting fish, and this week is no different. Grab your coveralls and get in on some of the best fishing of the year. Altamaha River: The river is getting right for…
These cooler temperatures have been great for anglers, and most of the bites have fired off, as well. The Altamaha system bass bite has remained great. Saltwater has been consistent, as well. Altamaha/Ocmulgee River: The bass bite has been great on the Altamaha system. Bill Stewart fished with me on Friday in the lower Altamaha,…
The bites have mostly been good this week. The Altamaha system bass bite has been great. Saltwater has provided a good bite when you could get out. Several days this week it was howling! At least two river records were set this week. Check out the write-ups in the Altamaha and Withlacoochee sections. Altamaha/Ocmulgee River:…
The fish are starting to move out of their summer patterns and move around more. It can be good and bad. It’s good because they feed better than in their mid-summer mode, but it’s sometimes hard to find them in the fall. Altamaha/Ocmulgee River:– My prediction in last week’s report about the Ocmulgee was correct.…
