WEST POINT LAKE IS DOWN 3.5 FEET STAINED & LOW 50’S

SEE NOTICE FROM THE CORP OF ENGINEERS BELOW.

From the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Due to recent heavy rains, excess sediment deposits have pushed down from the Chattahoochee River leaving silt formations in the lake channel thus narrowing the navigation channel north of the Georgia Highway 219 river bridge. This area is between Georgia Park and Ringer Park. In addition, a large sandbar has formed along the west side of the river channel. Too properly mark the river channel, red and green buoys will be replaced with mid channel buoys (black and white vertically stripped) which identify the center of the channel. Boaters should navigate near these buoys to ensure deeper water. Shoal markers will be installed to identify the sandbar. Boaters should proceed with caution in this stretch of river and always be on the lookout for floating debris.

Bass fishing is good. The fish are really trying to get shallow but there is one more front on the way. The best bite is fishing 10 to 12 foot brush piles in the creeks. Use the Rapala DT10 in fire tiger and chrome Rat L Traps just running the banks. These colder temperatures will slow the migration for bass. Stained water conditions can hamper the deeper bite and the shoreline structure is a good option. Spinner baits, Chatter baits and jigs are going to be heavy favorites this week and with a stained lake. Use the chartreuse and white with a Colorado blade will be a good choice. Use the Lowrance Structure Scan and Down Scan technology to help find the concentrations of bait and the bass will be there too.
