december fishing

The striper fishing on Lake Lanier continues to be solid. Early in the mornings some big fish are roaming up shallow and are being caught on freelines using trout. Later in the mornings, downlines are the better choice. The best depth has been 28 ft deep over the larger schools of bait up in the creeks. The better fishing has been on the north end from Gainesville Marina north. Some big are being caught. A few fish are being caught on umbrella rigs as well. Chartreuse trailers have been the best choice on the jigs on the umbrella rigs. See you on the lake.
