The fishing bite on Lake Lanier is turning on quick with warmer temperature to 77 degrees this past week fish are feeding on free lines boards and down rods have also been productive, the morning bite and days with low lite sky's have been really productive. Last week did come across some active fish schooling on top water, caught 2 great fish on topwater lures one fish 18lbs.

Fishing on Lanier has been pretty good most days. Fish are in their usual patterns. Most day feeding on small threadfin. Trout and herring and shiners tend to be the go to. The Bite for me seems to get better as the day progresses. Water temp is in the low to mid 40s. Finding the high concentrations of bait is key to success. Down lines free lines and boards. Don't be afraid to bump banks and docks big fish use the shallower water to warm. Using Mini Mac's is also a key trolling 1.3 mph 40 feet behind the boat...

Don't be afraid to get out on the water in the cold, fish still have to eat.
Fishing with Nick was great! Put us on some fish and we pulled in some nice spotted bass along with strippers. Definitely would recommend Nick and we look forward to our next opportunity to fish with Nick.
