  • Lake Oconee Fishing Report - GA

    LAKE OCONEE IS FULL, 60’S

    Bass fishing is slow. Using a small crankbait around the shoreline where you can find some rocks will be your best bet. A number 5 shad rap or a ¼ ounce Rat L Trap fished on ten pound test line with a medium action rod will work best. Cover a lot of shoreline and you should catch a few fish. Using a spoon where you find baitfish in the colder water will also work well. A few fish are still being caught under docks using a 3/8ounce Strike King Jig, Black/Blue with a Zoom Salty Chunk in the watermelon color. Work this bait on the docks in the mouth of the pockets and coves or use around any blow downs.

    Hybrid fishing is fair and live bait has been the best bait to use. Fishing around the dam and in the mouth of Richland Creek have been a very good areas. Using a spoon fishing around the schools of baitfish down the lake will bring a few good fish.

    Crappie fishing is slow and the fish have moved back into deeper water and are very tight to cover. Using live bait over brush piles or tolling the creek channels using jigs tipped with a minnow will catch fish.
