  • Savannah River Fishing Update: Redfish, Trout, and Flounder Thrive as Seasons Change
    Oct 3 2024
    As of October 3, 2024, the fishing scene on the Savannah River, spanning across Georgia and South Carolina, is looking promising despite the transitioning weather.

    ### Weather and Tidal Conditions
    Today, you can expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around 78 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 62 degrees. Sunrise is at 7:23 AM, and sunset will be at 6:57 PM. The tidal report shows a high tide at 9:15 AM and a low tide at 3:15 PM, which is ideal for targeting various fish species.

    ### Fish Activity
    The late summer and early fall season has brought a mix of fish activity to the Savannah River. Redfish have been consistent, particularly around the tidal flats and creek mouths. Small sea trout are also abundant, though many are still below the keeper size. Flounder are starting to show up, especially in areas with muddy bottoms and structure.

    ### Recent Catches
    Yesterday saw a good number of redfish caught, primarily on live or dead shrimp and soft plastics. Some anglers reported catching small sea trout early in the morning before the heat set in. Flounder catches were noted using mudminnows and finger mullet on jig setups.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For redfish, live or dead shrimp and soft plastics like 3-inch Glup swimming mullets on a 1/8 or 1/4 ounce jig are highly effective. For sea trout, early morning fishing with live shrimp or small jigs can yield good results. Flounder are best targeted with mudminnows or finger mullet on jig setups.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the hot spots right now is the lower Savannah River near the city of Savannah, where the Intracoastal Waterway intersects. This area is known for its numerous backwater oxbows that offer good fishing for bass, bream, crappie, and catfish. Another spot is around the barrier islands, where the outer sandbars and sloughs are home to tarpon and other species.

    ### Additional Tips
    Be prepared for some small fish like croaker and pinfish that might interfere with your bait, so having extra shrimp in your bait tank is a good idea. Bluefish are also present, so be ready to go through several soft plastics if you're targeting other species.

    Overall, the Savannah River is offering some great fishing opportunities as we transition into fall. Enjoy your time on the water

  • Fall Fishing Forecast for Savannah River - Cooler Temps, Tides, and Abundant Fish Targets
    Oct 2 2024
    As of October 2, 2024, the Savannah River is offering some promising fishing opportunities, especially with the transitioning weather.

    ### Weather and Tidal Conditions
    The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with temperatures ranging from the mid-70s to the mid-80s. Sunrise is at around 7:20 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 6:50 PM. Tides are crucial in the Savannah River; today, you can expect a high tide around 9:30 AM and a low tide around 3:30 PM.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been steady, particularly in the backwater oxbows and the Intracoastal Waterway section of the river. Bass, bream, crappie, and catfish are the main targets here.

    ### Recent Catches
    Yesterday saw good catches of redfish, especially in the lower Savannah River where the water is big and wide. Small sea trout are also abundant, though many are still below keeper size. Bass fishing has been fair, with some anglers reporting catches of largemouth and shoal bass around shoal areas using flukes and crawfish imitations.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For bass, flukes and crawfish imitations are working well around shoal areas. For redfish, dead or live shrimp and soft plastics are the go-to choices. Crappie are being caught on the drop-offs of old river channels using Spider rigging with live minnows and Jiffy Jigs. Catfish are biting well in deeper bends and slack water areas, with spinnerbaits and nightcrawlers being effective.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the hot spots is the backwater oxbows in the lower Savannah River, which offer excellent fishing for bass, bream, crappie, and catfish. Another good spot is around the Intracoastal Waterway section near the city of Savannah, where the mix of fresh and saltwater creates a rich fishing environment.

    ### Additional Tips
    Keep an eye on the water levels and clarity, as recent rains can affect fishing conditions. Early morning and late afternoon fishing are usually the best times to catch fish, especially with the cooler temperatures setting in. Be prepared for some trash fish like croaker and pinfish, and have extra bait on hand.

    Overall, the Savannah River is a great place to be for some fall fishing, with a variety of species active and ready to bite.

  • Savannah River's October Fishing Bonanza: Bass, Crappie, Catfish, and Bream Await
    Oct 1 2024
    As we step into October, the Savannah River is gearing up for some exciting fishing opportunities. Today, October 1st, the sun rises at 7:23 AM and sets at 7:04 PM, giving us a full day to hit the water.

    Weather-wise, we're expecting a mild day with temperatures ranging from the mid-60s to the mid-70s, and a gentle breeze out of the northeast. This should make for comfortable fishing conditions.

    Tidal reports indicate a low tide at 9:45 AM and a high tide at 3:45 PM, which is ideal for targeting fish in the backwater oxbows and creek channels.

    Fish activity has been picking up, especially with the cooler mornings. Bass, particularly largemouth and spotted bass, are becoming more active as they start to move into shallower waters. Yesterday saw a good number of bass catches, with many anglers reporting success using topwater lures like chrome Gunfish or white Zoom Super Flukes. The bass are also holding in 15 to 20 feet of water around main-lake points and humps, where deep diving crank baits and Carolina rigged worms are effective.

    Crappie fishing is also improving, with fish suspended in 10 to 15 feet of water over deeper structures. Spider rigging with live minnows and using small jigs like the Red Rooster Dagger in natural colors have been productive.

    Catfish, including channel and blue catfish, are active in deeper slower waters. Cut herring and nightcrawlers are the baits of choice for these bottom dwellers.

    For those looking to catch bream, the shallow waters around docks and backwater areas are filled with bluegill and shellcracker. Small jigs and live worms are the way to go.

    Hot spots include the backwater oxbows near the city of Savannah and the creek channels around Clarks Hill Lake, which is part of the Savannah River Basin. The Intracoastal Waterway section of the Savannah River is also worth exploring, as it offers a mix of fresh and saltwater species.

    Overall, it's a great time to be on the Savannah River, with a variety of fish species active and the weather cooperating. So grab your gear, and let's make the most of this beautiful fall day.
