Lake Allatoona - Freshwater Fishing Report

Lines-sides fishing is Good !! The spawn run will probably see a delay with the recent rains and rising and muddy waters. But once the water reseeds we look for the spawn run to return to normal The water temperature is heating up fast and the bite is really starting to get good. The white bass have moved up both rivers and are being caught on white Rooster tails and crappie jigs. I expected we are just days away before the Hybrids and Stripers move up as well.. Right now I am spending most of my time in the Creeks. There are decent schools of fish in all the major creeks right now. Kellogg's, Stamp, Clark, Tanyard and Iron Hill have all produces for my boats in the last 10 days.. There is also another bite going on from Little River all the way up to Fields Landing. If you find the bait fish, you'll find stripers and hybrids nearby. These fish are feeding up for the up coming spawn run. Flat-lines in the morning and afternoon and down-lines mid-day is the way to go.
The Top Water bite this week has been slow compared to last weeks. If you are lucky enough to come across breaking fish Rooster tails, Flukes, Popping Corks, Jerk baits and free lining shad will all catch you fish right now.
Trolling is working really well right now. The Mack Farr 3-arm umbrella rig has been producing best for me right now. Color doesn't seem to matter, but speed is a factor. The best speed for me this week has been between 3.3- 3.5 miles per hour.
