Cold March Start

We turn on the news tonight to see that March is starting with a Winter Weather Advisory.  Where was this during duck season?

Cold spring starts can offer some excellent fishing though.  Stripper and crappie fishing are both excellent this time of year.  Lake Lanier is one of the best stripper fishing lakes in the southeast.  If you have access to deep water, now is the time to get out.  Crappie fishing is available almost anywhere.  Many of our small lakes in north Georgia have crappie.  There are several ways to fish for them, but our favorite is with a small jig and minnow in the stick ups.

A lesser known fish that is active in Georgia this time of year is walleye.  There are several areas to fish for walleye in north Georgia.  The upper end of Lake Lanier has some remaining population along with the Georgia Power Lakes in North Georgia.
