LAKE OCONEE IS FULL, 80S


Lake Oconee Line Side report brought to you by Mark Smith at Reel Time Service. 404 803 0741. www.reeltimeguideservice.com


The lake is full. The water temperature is 83 to 87. The lake is clear.


The Bass fishing is good. The shad spawn is over. Time to get out the frogs and go to the south end of the lake and work the grass at first light as well as last light. White spinner baits on sea walls and rip rap are still producing morning at day light. As the sun rises switch over to a small crank bait and fish the same areas. The Shad Rap in natural color have been producing very well. Later in the day don't forget soft plastics under docks from the middle of the coves to the back of the coves. Drop a small shiner into the school.


Striper fishing is very good. You can find stripers and hybrids all over the lake. Some fish are as deep as 30 to 50 feet. Keep moving until you see fish on your Lowrance and then drop bait to them. Down lines are the best producer. Fish are showing up from 10 feet to 50 feet. The umbrella bite has taken off this week. So keep them on your boat and pull them over points and humps on the south end of the lake for some great action.


Crappie fishing is good. The long line bite has taken off over the past few days. The fish are starting to stack up on the trees. Long lining down to the top of the trees has been the best producer over the past week. Use your Lowrance to look for the fish in the timber and then pull your jigs over the tree.
