Bass fishing is good. Start the day with a white buzz bait. Fish it around mid lake docks sea walls and bridge rip raps. As the sun get up switch to deep water docks with a worm. Fish a Zoom U tail worm with some green in it. A Texas rig has been out producing the shaky head over the past week, but both have been good producers. Deep running crank baits fished off of the deep water humps and deep water points on the south end of the lake have been producing some larger fish. This bite is best when Georgia Power is pulling water. This is when the Lowrance Down Scan can not only cover 4 times more water, but you can count them.

Line side fishing is good. Humps in the middle of the lake have been holding large schools of line sides. An umbrella rig fish over these humps have been very productive when Georgia Power is pulling water. Because of the water heating up the fish are only feeding when the water is moving. The white bass are schooling on the humps on the north end of the lake from Sugar Creek north. Use your Lowrance to find the schools on the humps and then drop a spoon down to the school.

Crappie fishing is good. The fish are staging in the timber from 10 to 20 feet deep. Find the schools on your Lowrance and drop a live minnow down to the school. You can also use a small black and blue 1/32 jig dropped into the schools.
