LAKE ALLATOONA IS ONE FOOT OVER FULL, 70’S, CLEAR


Spotted bass fishing is fair. They continue to move shallow early and late and back off during the day. Best bet is top water early and a fluke thrown right to the bank on mid lake points and pockets. Mid day go a little deeper with Zoom Finesse worms on a jig head around brush piles. Green pumpkin will work of course but try some of the many similar colors available. Find docks with brush try ¼ ounce mini jig, use it with a matching Zoom Trailer in green Pumpkin. Keep a Zoom Super Fluke is pearl rigged all day for any action on the surface. As always use the Lowrance Structure Scan technology can unlock areas and see fish that traditional sonar cannot see. Long points as well, back off a bit and throw a Carolina rigged lizard in green pumpkin. Also, the deeper diving Bill Norman crank baits are beginning to catch quite a few. The key is bouncing them off deep rocks.

Line side fishing is great. The fish are setting up on a summer pattern. Big schools of hybrids can be found anywhere from the S turns to as far south as Tanyard Creek. The down rod bite is the most productive bite going on the lake right now. Fishing live shad at depths from 20 to 30 feet is producing for our boats from one end of the lake to the other. Our bait of choose has been big thread fin shad. These fish can be found on your Lowrance on or around most points, humps and flats. Good electronics can be a big help during the summer months. Summer time is awesome for numbers on Lake Allatoona give us a call at 770 827 6282 and let's take the kids fishing,
