Caught this 25lb striper today, our biggest fish this summer. We also caught about 20 huge spotted bass. Fishing has been great and the hot weather should make stripers set up in deep water holes.

Give me a call to set a date for a great day on the lake! 770-945-0797

Greg Smith and buddies from Buffalo, New York, come down every year to thaw out in Georgia. 😉

Saturday, we fished crappie, boating about 60 good ones. Sunday, we hit the stripers well landing seven, all very good fish, with the largest around 20 lbs. A great time on the water with those guys!

If you want to experience the winter bite, give me a call at 770-945-0797.

Who wants to be outside in this cold... unless you are catching lots of fish😉, the January and February crappie bite is on!

The cold blast of weather will have them schooled up well! Don't miss out, these are the two best months for catching crappie, especially if you like to cook and eat them, like Doug. ;)

The picture is from last week's trip, great time!! Give Doug a call to book your trip at 770-945-0797!
