Lines-sides Fishing is Good and will only get better as we enter into the month of May. The Hybrids have started their spawn runs up both the Etowah and Little River. Most of the fish that are being caught are already spawn out.. The river bite should stay decent into the middle of May.... The main lake is also fishing well. The fish that are returning out of the rivers are starting to school up from the Little River bridge up to the delta. And from the S-Turns to Kelloggs Creek.... There is also a decent south end bite going on right now from Iron Hill - to the bay out in from of 3rd Army..
The fish on the main lake are up in the water column and are very hard to mark on 2 D sonar. If you have a Lowrance with side scan you can locate these fish by running your side scan setting on 60 feet on both sides.... These has been working Great for me on my Lowrance 12 in Touch.... If you don't have side scan, the best way to find these fish is to put out a spread of planner boards and free lines and pull the banks and open water until you get bit..... Planner boards and freeing live shad on the main lake has been our best bite. And are a counting for at lease 95% of our catch on both Lake Allatoona and Carters lake..... Small to middle size gizzard shad and thread fins has been the ticket... .
Trolling has been decent but should get really good once the water temperature hits 70 degrees and the lake starts to clear.......
Over all the bite on Allatoona is very good for almost the entire lake.... Spring is and awesome time to be on the water. Grab the kids give us a call 770 827-6282 and lets go fishing.....
