  • Lake Oconee Fishing Report - GA

    LAKE OCONEE IS FULL, THE LAKE IS CLEAR ON THE SOUTH END STAINED TO MUDDY UP THE LAKE AND INTO THE RIVER TEMPRATURE 84 88.

    Bass fishing is fair. Sea Walls in Richland Creek are great all day areas with trick worms and the new lure called the Whopper Plopper. Get two off Tackle Warehouse. Throw it out and reel it back. The top water bite has been shut down and the bass are really sluggish. Anglers are fishing a lot of docks, especially those close to the main lake channels. Be sure to take advantage of the Lowrance Side and Down Scanning technology to find the fish faster. Senko Worm 5 watermelon and black. This is a good bait to try after the sun is up. Try to find those that have fifteen to twenty feet of water on the front end of the dock and you might even try sitting in deeper water fishing them.

    Striper fishing is good. Use your Lowrance to locate the schools of fish in the mouths of the coves and on the humps on the south end of the lake. Live bait (shad) has been the best over the past week. You can also pick up some fish on the pipeline with a spoon when Georgia Power is pulling water. Early morning the spoon bite at the dam has started along with the top water bite on popping corks.

    Crappie fishing is very good. The fish are moving into the timber on an early summer pattern. Long lining jigs over timber from 8 to 15 feet deep have been the best producers over the past week. Match your color to the color of the water.

    Make sure you stop by Sugar Creek Marina and pick up your spoons and all your tackle needs. You can also book your crappie and striper trips as well as on the water Lowrance classes, with Reel Time Guide Service at 404 803 0741 or reeltime@bellsouth.net
