LAKE SINCLAIR IS FULL, 86 DEGREES, STAINED UP RIVER, MAIN LAKE CLEAR

Bass fishing has been decent this week on Lake Sinclair. The shallow bite has been consistent as long as mayflies are present. The Oconee River arm and the Little River arm have had the most mayflies of late. Top water baits and jigs have been best when fishing around the mayflies. A Spro Bronzeye frog in the Leopard color is hard to beat around grass and wood cover that is adjacent to the main river channel. The Spro frog will produce bites all day in overcast conditions, but is usually best in the early morning or late evening. During the middle of the day, a Buckeye Mop jig paired with a Zoom Super Chunk will produce bites when fished around the backsides of docks and around shallow wood cover that is adjacent to deep water. A brown or green pumpkin colored jig will work best. There are still a good many fish holding in brush piles 12 15ft deep. A Buckeye Spot Remover shaky head with a green pumpkin Zoom trick worm has been best this week for catching these fish. The deep bite is still really consistent as well. The deep fish have been 21 25ft deep this week on humps, points, and ledges located on the lower end of the lake. Rock piles, stumps, and brush piles will be the best fish holding cover on these offshore locations. The offshore bite will be best when Georgia Power is moving water.

I still have a few guide trips available next week. Give me a call to reserve your trip today.
