I was out on the Lake 3 days this week and did great...until the CBC Tournament on Saturday - of course! Wednesday and Thursday were both great days for numbers and size. We caught fish on topwater each morning - my lure of choice was a black and chrome chug bug. I caught fish on 4 consectutive casts at our first stop Thursday morning in Six Mile. I also found a strong Shakey Head bite out on the Main Lake - we caught several solid fish in the 3 lbs to 4 lbs range. My fish have been coming on rocky/clay banks and points both in the creeks and on the main lake. I know that is all about to change as the fish continue moving out post-spawn, but for now, they still seem to be up there good. I also had the pleasure this week of taking a client out on a guide trip. We utlilized the LanierMAPPED.com info and got on fish! Ross had a great time and really caught 'em Wednesday. I have attached some pictures from the trip. The weather was awesome, and we had a great day together! Thanks Ross! I look forward to more guide trips as the topwater bite gets stronger - knowing where those brushpiles are will be key folks!! Drop me a line if you would like to get out!
The CBC Tournament was a great event and the church raised some much-needed funds for their youth ministry. Thanks to everyone who came out and supported this great cause! The highlight of my tournament was spending an hour and a half fishing out my spinning rod that got launched over my bow (thanks to my trolling motor kicking on)as I was trying to measure a fish. The fish was 15 inches, and I got my rod back. Happy ending I guess, but overall I did not adjust as I needed to on the water with the weather change. I caught allot of fish, but their heads were too close to their tails! Next time!!

Lake Lanier Fishing Report, April 26th - April 30th, 2010
Hello Fellow Anglers -

My fishing time was limited - I got out Monday and Friday afternoons of this past week. Monday was the best day by far, as I boated several solid fish on a weightless fluke that I fished around shallow docks in Six Mile Creek. They were taking the bait on the fall - in about 3-4 feet of water - fun to watch! I also caught 3 on a Horny Toad frog retrieved through the buck brush and grass on the bank in Six Mile Creek. My Monday trip was limited by dead batteries, so I ended up floating with the wind quite a bit - but still caught fish. Richie Rich and I got out together on Friday afternoon, but the bite was tough. We boated a few fish on a fluke in YD Creek, but that was it. We fished until 10 PM, but the bite did not improve after dark - dissapointing. I heard Saturday was great though!!
