LAKE HARTWELL IS DOWN 3.3 FEET & LOW 80’S
Bass fishing is fair. Try a variety of baits from top water to bottom fishing. The smaller bass are chasing top water Skitter Pops and a variety of other surface baits on the back side of the points and in the small cuts and coves. Medium to deep diving crank baits like the Rapala DT6 and DT10 around the docks and between two main lake points are catching fish. Continue using the Carolina rigs and jigs around the docks. The fish are still feeding on the small shad along with the bream up in the shallows. Shallow running square bill crank baits around any form of structure is fair early and late. Use a variety of plastics on the Carolina rigs and use some Spike It on any soft bait.
