LAKE ALLATOONA IS FULL, 70’S, CLEAR
This bass fishing report is from Matt Driver.
Bass fishing is good. We are at the end to the spawn and the beginning of a great top water bite. Soon, we will post spawn fish begin to move to areas where they can recover from this spawn, rest and feed. May is time to think shad. Shad begin to spawn and invoke a feeding frenzy for bass, white bass and hybrids. Shad will spawn along hard surfaces rock and will end that ritual just after daybreak. Try a shad imitation bait like the Picasso Suijin with a Big Bite Jerk Minnow. Also, top water is on fire. Any walking bait will do. We use the Zara Spook or Spro Hydro Pop. The big females are moving to areas of refuge after coming off the bed. Bass will slowly be moving out toward summer areas and mid depth brush. The fish can be targeted with jig head worms, drop shots and finesse jigs. Watch your sonar for signs of bait and active fish.

Line side fishing is great. The fish are back on the main lake and are feeding well. The bite is good from one end of the lake to the other. Up north there are good numbers of line sides being caught at the mouth of Sweet Water also the flats at the Delta and in the S Turns. Mid lake is also producing good numbers from Kellogg to Bartow Carver. And the south end is also fishing well from the dam all the way up Allatoona Creek to the Lake Acworth spillway. Free lining shad early is the ticket to getting your day started off right. After the sun comes up, look for schools of hybrids on your Lowrance off of any main lake points and humps. We are catching most of our fish in less than 30 feet of water fishing right on the bottom. The key to loading the boat is fresh bait. Change your bait often and be sure to take plenty with you. Summer time is awesome for numbers on Lake Allatoona give us a call at 770 827 6282 and let's take the kids fishing.
