Lake Lanier Striper Report & Panama City Fishing Report.

Report Date: August 7, 2009

Shane Watson Guide Service Report (08-07-09). I've been on our family vacation the last week and a half down in Panama City. Down there, the king mackerel and red snapper fishing was very good on live cigar minnows over a 80 to 100 foot bottom. We fished a couple of FADS out there and the king's were very thick around these attractors and flatlines worked well. Up here while I was gone, we had our guide boats out on morning and afternoon trips everyday. They have done very well on downline bluebacks fished 40-80 feet deep over the main channel and in the mouths of creeks. Mid-lake and south have been best according to our guides. The leadcore bite has been decent. The numbers on downlines have been very good. The stripers on our boats have ranged from 10 to 28 pounds the last couple of weeks. Morning and afternoon trips have both been very good on the stripers. This report is brought to you by Shane Watson Guide Service and Hammond's Fishing Center. We Appreciate Your Business. Good Fishing.
