Hybrid bite is on fire right now

Steve,
If you want to fish Lanier, let me know. You can use the ramp at my club. During the week the place is empty.

I still have my cast net, I used to go to the spillway on the Re-Reg dam with my, Super Bait tank II but the water now is moving to fast due to all the rain..Got plenty of Gizzards but tore up more than one net doing it..Good luck and PM if you need or want company..DD

I had a 19 ft Ski Barge and did just fine..It is one of the deepest lakes in Georgia..Just need to know where to go. Depth finder is your friend..DD

Yeah, there is very little traffic on the lake so no serious risk of taking a wave over the side.

All these are from Carter's over the last couple months:

I don't really fish Lanier much in the Summer, the lake is so big and it takes a while to find the fish if you're not on it everyday. I'll probably be up there a good bit this winter.

I fished up the Lula, easy to find bait also. DD

That's a good idea, and the great thing about Carter's is you're never farther than a five minute boat ride from any point on the lake. We had to drive almost 20 minutes each way to get to where I normally net bait this morning.



No problem! Please post a report and let us know how you do, I really want to get the fishing section up and going.

Will do...were gonna put in at redtop early...where is a good place to get shad and how early are they open?..ill bring a castnet too, is there a good spot to get em?.

You can check Striper Soup in Acworth for shad, I believe they open around 6, but be prepared to pay a small fortune for them. If you try to catch your own just be sure to get there early and put out a hydroglow or some other light and bait should show up. I'd probably try over by the DNR docks and then maybe in some of the creek mouths around there (for shad that is)

Keep your eyes open for busting fish, my best spots on Allatoona have been found by seeing spotted bass jumping as I'm driving by. It seems wherever they are busting you can usually find some hybrids or white bass under them or near by.

Won't be long before you can use Rainbows, Get a few Umbrella rigs, they work well also if one dosn't work the other might...I used to use those ..Sometimes lead line, or down riggers, or planer boards, or balloons..It all depends at what depth they are at and what turns them on!! Good luck DD

That's all well and good but the question we all have is where did you get the fancy shirt?
