Line sides fishing is fair but fishing has slowed down a little this week. The blue bird sky's and the full moon seems to have them scattered all over the lake and at many levels in the water column. Fishing should pick back up by this weekend. The fish that we are catching this week are off of the main lake points and down lines are working best. In the past two weeks the bite has been best at 18 feet. This week we are catching fish as deep as 35 feet. For Allatoona that's deep for hybrids. Threadfin shad seem to be the best bait right now and bait is easy to catch in the back of the creeks or around any lighted dock. Shiners and bream will also get you a fish are two.

Top water, has really gotten good in the past two weeks for white bass. Popping corks with a Jr. Flute will load the boat for you. Trolling has really slowed down this week due to the full moon phase. It to should pick back up by this weekend the Mack Farr umbrella rig is the only thing I am trolling right now. But any deep diving plug should work and pull them right over the river channel. Remember summer is here. The fish are schooling up. It is the perfect time to take the kids fishing. I got a summer special going right now. A half day for Dad, Mom and 2 kids for $225.00. Just mention you saw the ad here
