  • Résumé

  • As of November 9, 2024, Lake Lanier is offering some exciting fishing opportunities despite the ongoing lake turnover. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    First, the lake level is currently down by about 2.1 feet from full pool, and the water temperature is in the low 70s, which is ideal for fall fishing. The water clarity is generally clear, although the turnover process is causing some areas to be darker and have a distinct odor.

    For bass fishing, the top water bite is still active, with surface activity scattered across the lake. Look for windy areas with humps and long points, and use lures like the Lip Thrasin Riser, Ima Skimmer, swimbaits, and Spot Chokers. The dropshot technique is also effective around brush and ledges in the 25- to 35-foot range, using Lanier Baits Sweet Rosey or Blue Lily colored worms. The shakey head bite around docks and blow downs is producing fish as well, especially in the 15-foot range.

    Stripers are on the move, seeking oxygen-rich areas. Check contours that create more movement, such as ditches, humps, and feeder creeks where they intersect with the channel. Down lines, flat lines, and planer boards are the most effective methods, using bluebacks, threads, and minnows. Dollar bill size gizzards can also provide some excitement.

    The weather for today is expected to be partly cloudy with mild temperatures, making it a great day to be out on the water. Sunrise is at 6:51 AM, and sunset is at 5:14 PM.

    Yesterday, anglers reported catching a mix of bass and stripers. For bass, several fish were caught using the mentioned top water lures and dropshot techniques. Stripers were found in the creeks, particularly in areas with plenty of bait, and were caught using medium shiners on flat lines and planer boards.

    Hot spots include the areas around the ditches and humps, especially where they intersect with the channel. The river channel near the Spanish mansion on the point in Flat Creek has been productive for stripers. For bass, focus on the docks in the 15-foot range and the brush and ledges in the 25- to 35-foot range.

    Remember to keep an eye on the wind and bait movement, as these are key factors in locating active fish. With the cooler weather forecast, the fishing should only get better, so it’s a great time to get out there and catch some fish.
