  • Lake Lanier Fishing Report: Stripers, Spots, and Catfish Bite Strong Despite Low Water Levels

    Lake Lanier Fishing Report: Stripers, Spots, and Catfish Bite Strong Despite Low Water Levels
    Jul 7 2025
    Artificial Lure here with your evening Lake Lanier fishing report for July 7, 2025. The heart of summer is sizzling across North Georgia, and with the Fourth of July weekend just behind us, anglers are finding plenty of action and a few surprises thanks to this year’s low water levels.

    Temperatures hit the high 80s today with a muggy breeze, and storms are rolling around the edges of the basin. The sun rose just after 6:30 a.m. and will set about 8:50 p.m., giving plenty of daylight for those evening topwater runs. We aren’t dealing with tides on Lanier, but the dropping lake levels make for some interesting shoreline changes—lots of exposed structure and tighter holding areas for the fish. According to reports from Gainesville, the receding water means there are “less places for the fish to hide,” and folks are getting into both catfish and big stripers right off the muddy peninsulas, some topping 10 pounds this weekend.

    Striped bass and spotted bass are holding strong in mid-lake and creek channels, especially early and late. Hit the mouths of Flat Creek and Six Mile for pods of schooling stripers popping shad on the surface at first light. A few groups this weekend set up with live blueback herring on downlines at 30–40 feet, scoring steady action, but don’t overlook the classic white bucktail jig or soft plastic fluke for stripers up top. For spots and largemouth, brushpiles in 18–26 feet near reef markers are producing with shaky head worms in green pumpkin and drop shot rigs. If you’re a fan of topwater, a chrome walking bait or bone-colored popper is still pulling up some quality fish at dawn—especially near the rock points off Three Sisters and Vann’s Tavern.

    According to a recent catch, Pamela Moss landed a 3-pound, 13-ounce Alabama bass right here earlier in the season, and the bite remains solid for both numbers and size. Spotted bass in the 2–3 pound range are common, with crankbaits around main-lake humps and finesse jigs along the steep bluff banks leading the way.

    Crappie have pulled deep but remain catchable over brush in 20–30 feet with live minnows or Bobby Garland jigs in pearl and chartreuse. Meanwhile, night-fishing for catfish is heating up with cut bait and chicken livers near river channel bends—plenty of channel cats and the occasional flathead.

    Hot spots this week:
    - The submerged timber off Browns Bridge is loaded with bait and bass in the early morning.
    - Striper hunters are finding success around the mouth of Big Creek with both live and artificial offerings.

    For lures, a selection of bright colors—yellow, orange, purple, and black—are working according to tackle shops and recent Instagram posts, with anglers mixing things up to match what the fish want day to day.

    Stay hydrated, keep an eye on those pop-up storms, and fish safe out there. Thanks for tuning in to your Lake Lanier fishing report—make sure to subscribe for the latest updates and local tips. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

  • Lake Lanier Summer Fishing Report - Spotted Bass, Stripers, and Crappie Bite

    Lake Lanier Summer Fishing Report - Spotted Bass, Stripers, and Crappie Bite
    Jul 6 2025
    Good afternoon, anglers—Artificial Lure here, bringing you your Lake Lanier fishing report for Sunday, July 6, 2025. Summer is in full swing and Lake Lanier is alive with activity, both above and below the surface.

    Today’s **weather** has been textbook July—air temps pushing the upper 80s, partly cloudy skies, and a steady southwesterly breeze around 10 mph. Humidity has been high all day, and we got sunrise at 6:32 AM, with sunset expected at 8:50 PM tonight. With stable barometric conditions and just a whisper of choppy water, the lake’s in prime shape for both early morning and late evening bites.

    Now, unlike the coast, Lake Lanier doesn’t deal in tides, but water clarity remains good, especially in the main lake and around deeper points. The coves and upper river arms are a bit more stained from boat traffic and recent rains but still fishable. Water temps are hovering in the low 80s.

    As for **fish activity**, the summer pattern is in full swing: spotted bass and stripers are pushing deep during the heat of the afternoon then sliding up onto points and humps to feed as the sun dips. According to Kevin Vandam’s recent Pro Team Journal, anglers have been scoring solid numbers of spotted bass by working drop shots and shaky heads over brush piles in 20 to 35 feet of water. Early and late, you can pull fish out of shallow rock and dock structure with topwater walkers and poppers. Largemouth bass have been a little more scattered, but there have been some good catches in backs of creeks and under deeper docks.

    For **stripers**, the bite has been best in the early morning hours—think first safe light—on live blueback herring downlined 40 to 60 feet. A few lucky boats have reported double-digit catches in the mouth of Flowery Branch and main lake humps near Browns Bridge. Trollers are picking up fish on u-rigs with bucktail jigs and on white flutter spoons.

    **Crappie anglers** are still at it, spider rigging and shooting docks with small jigs tipped with minnows. The bite isn’t as wild as spring, but you’ll find steady action around submerged timber and standing brush in 15 to 25 feet.

    Today, anglers reported healthy numbers of spotted bass, a handful of largemouth, good striper counts in the upper teens for some, and quality slabs for those working crappie. Catfish are also biting well at night on cut bait and chicken livers near the river channel.

    When it comes to **lure choice**, finesse rules the midday, with green pumpkin shaky heads and drop shot rigs getting the job done for bass. For those chasing surface action, a chrome ima Little Stik or a soft walking bait like the Reaction Innovations Vixen is a top pick. For stripers, nothing beats a live herring, but white bucktail jigs and Sebile Magic Swimmers in “Lanier special” colors have been money for artificials, as Paul Marks demonstrated at a recent Smith Lake event.

    **Hot spots** for today’s bite are the submerged brush near the mouth of Flat Creek for bass, and the stretch between Big Creek Park and the main river channel for stripers. For crappie, check bridge pilings near the Chattahoochee River arm.

    Remember, the lake is busy right after the holiday, so keep safety top of mind and mind your wake—there have been recent boating accidents that made local news. Always wear your life jacket out there.

  • Lake Lanier Fishing Report: Stripers, Bass, and the Transition Season

    Lake Lanier Fishing Report: Stripers, Bass, and the Transition Season
    Jun 22 2025
    Lake Lanier greeted us this June 22 with air temps starting in the mid-60s at sunrise, rising to the mid-80s by afternoon, under partly cloudy skies and the ever-present humidity Georgia’s famous for. The lake is holding a foot above full pool, water temps are in the high 70s, and clarity is good lake-wide, though you’ll find a little stain in the upper creeks from recent rains. Sunrise hit just after 6:20 a.m. and sunset is stretching out past 8:50 p.m.—plenty of daylight for those chasing the bite all day. Tides don’t impact Lanier directly since she’s an inland reservoir, but water levels are steady.

    Striper fishing is classic for June—Lanier’s a transition lake this time of year. The shallow, early-morning bite is just about done as stripers and bait schools push deeper. The best action is coming from pockets and drainages from Brown’s Bridge down to the dam. Early and late, stripers chase bait in 10–20 feet, then drop out to 40–50 feet as the sun gets high. Savvy anglers are dragging blueback herring or small shad on downlines at 25 to 35 feet, moving slow, about 0.4–0.6 mph. When you mark a pod, hit ‘Spot Lock’ and get ready—many are reporting multiple fish flurries using this method. If the fish scatter, try thumping the boat floor with a rubber-ended thump stick; it can draw those suspended stripers back under the boat, and it absolutely works according to guides out daily on the lake.

    The bass bite—especially spotted bass—remains solid but a little stingy. Spots and largemouth finished up spawning a few weeks ago and are keying on postspawn bait. The best numbers are coming off offshore structure: long points, humps, and brushpiles in 20–35 feet. There’s some schooling topwater action, but the window is tight. Gunfish, Ima Skimmers, and bone or chrome Slick Sticks are turning heads over brush when the wind gets up. Flukes—a pearl or white Zoom Super Fluke especially—should stay rigged on every deck. Cast ‘em, count to five, and work ‘em with a steady twitch. If fish are tight to cover, switch to a drop shot rig with Sweet Rosy or Blue Lily worms and work vertically. For docks, green pumpkin finesse worms have picked off some smaller largemouths.

    Hot spots? Brown’s Bridge area down to the dam is producing stripers. For bass, main-lake humps and points near Vann’s Tavern and Six Mile Creek have been favorites. Don’t overlook reef poles and brush near the mouths of major creeks either.

    According to local reports, anglers have caught stripers to 18 pounds, and bass in the 3- to 4-pound class. Topwater baits still rule, but don’t be afraid to mix in a drop shot or shakey head around deeper structure.
