Yes, a fish head spin, jig, crank bait, I've been killing them on a broke back rapla green and red, it the heat they don't want to chase as much so drop shot or shake head when they are in deep water. Fish head swim year round, usually just a pearl white.
Any drop shot worm is decent these days, you can wacky rig it or you and stick it through the end of the worm. Clear water I'd use a natural color, green pumpkin or green pumpkin green, on lanier I've been catching a lot the last couple years in a pink worm and a redish color worm.
rooster tails, white, pink, black, whole kernel corn with a small drop shot or load the hook up so it doesn't move very fast, start at the boat ramp by the damn and just walk down the middle of the river looking for deep pockets. I use to go straight across from the boat ramp and fly fish that...
I've never fished fort yargo and have lived here almost all my life lol. I might go there Thursday morning. There was cars in the parking lot the other day when I drove past it.
I will have to check this out. Have you used fishbrain.com? It shows lakes and ponds all around GA but it doesn't say if they are public or private. Last thing I want is to be out fishing thinking its public and it be a private lake.
I know exactly where that little lake is, last time I drove by there its overgrown and doesn't look like much bank fishing will be going on. Maybe I can take a weed Wacker with me lol.
I love fly fishing but all my lite tackle is at my dad's and he's bunkered down not letting anyone over. Won't even let me get my fishing supplies. I went and bought a 6'6" rod last night. I've never fished for bass off the bank but have for trout on the river. And caught plenty of catfish out...
where can I go to do some bass fishing off the bank near winder or Athens? I have a couple days off coming up and want to do some fishing to clear my mind of all the crap going on in the world right now. Thinking about staying around some ponds close to home and going to Lanier a couple days...
