Sebile's and Live Bait on Lake Lanier.

Report Date: October 20, 2009

Shane Watson Guide Service Report (10-20-09). Since my last report, we've seen great topwater at times with big schools of stripers on the surface and the numbers of fish we've caught on a Sebile and on freelines have been very good when they have been up. Somedays, they have not schooled on top at all and we have had to downline bluebacks 50 feet deep or troll leadcore out over the channel to catch any fish. This deeper water downline bite has been good for size and decent for numbers most days. It is a slower bite, but it will produce best after a cold front comes thru or if they are not on top. We've had our boats out on trips everyday, and I have been amazed at how long some of these schools of fish have stayed up. We are also catching and releasing some really big spotted bass that are mixed in with the stripers, on the chrome Sebile. Capt. Mack's 4 arm u-rigs fished 120 feet out at 3.0 mph are also producing on the stripers. This report in brought to you by Shane Watson Guide Service and Hammond's Fishing Center. Good Fishing and We Appreciate Everyone's Business. The new store is coming together quickly, come by and check out the progress.
