LAKE OCONEE IS FULL 80S

This Lake Oconee fishing report is by Captain Mark Smith of Reel Time Service. 404 803 0741

Bass fishing is fair. The temperature is 87-92. Not much has changed from last week. It’s hot and the bite is slow. Richland Creek and the main lake are clear, up the river is stained. Soft plastics fished under deep water docks has been the best producer over the past week. Buzz bait at first light on sea walls and rip rap. Start in the middle of the creeks and work your way out of the creeks. On the south end there is a good frog bite in the grass early in the mornings. Soft plastics fished under docks and on wood structure in the rivers above I20 will also produce. When Georgia Power is pulling water check the bridge rip rap areas as well as the humps on the south end of the lake. Use a deep diving crank bait on the humps and a medium running crank bait on the rip rap.

Striper fishing is fair to poor. If there is a pump back in the mornings then you can have fun catching small hybrids and stripers at the dam. It pump out in the afternoon will produce some times on humps and points. If you find a school on your Lowrance drop a live thread fin down to the school.

Crappie fishing is good. This is the best and most consistent bite going. The summer down line bite on top of timber and brush piles has produced large numbers and size over the past week. Find the fish in the top of the timber with your Lowrance down scan and drop a minnow or a jig into the school and hang on.
