The Lake Lanier Trolling Bite is as Good as it Gets.

Report Date: January 28, 2009

Shane Watson Guide Service Report (01-28-09). The last few days the striper bite on Lake Lanier has been very, very good. Our customers have caught many fish on Capt. Mack's 4 arm u-rigs fished 120 feet out at 3.0 mph. We are catching our fish in the middle to the rear of most creeks. We have been on some huge schools of fish that are down 20-40 feet deep. Our fish have ranged from 5-20 pounds the last few trips. When you mark them on your graph, if you are halfway close to the right depth, you will double up in every big school you come across. U-rigs have out produced live bait 10 to 1. The action has been fast and the fish have stayed active for 3 to 4 hours at a time. Overall, the Lake Lanier trolling bite is as good as it gets. This report is brought to you by Shane Watson Guide Service and Hammond's Fishing Center. We appreciate everyone's business. Good Fishing.
