 This is Artificial Lure reporting in with your Savannah River fishing update for Saturday, May 31, 2025. Sunrise hit at 6:19 AM and sunset will light up the banks until 8:23 PM, giving anglers a long window to chase that next big story. Let’s get into the details hot off the water.

First up, the tidal report for Savannah River Entrance shows a morning low tide around 5:35 AM, with the high swinging in close to 11:38 AM. Target those moving water periods for your best bite, and remember to check the local reads at Purrysburg Landing if you’re up river. River levels at Clyo are just below 13 feet and falling, which means muddy edges are receding and more backwater and oxbow opportunities are opening for both boat and bank anglers.

Weather’s shifting toward true summer with water temps in the upper 70s—prime for getting fish fired up. Early mornings and evenings are best, with high sun pushing fish back into cover and deeper holes by mid-morning. Bring your sunscreen and stay hydrated; afternoons are getting sticky and warm, so plan accordingly.

As for what’s biting, the bluegill and redbreast sunfish bite is in absolute full swing. Last week, hunner Taylor and friends boated well over a hundred panfish, keeping 56—mostly redbreast and bluegill. The new bluegill benchmark was struck by Dustin Burton on May 9, who pulled a trophy slab using crickets on the Savannah[Georgia Outdoor News]. The bream are prepping for the spawn, so crickets and red wigglers in 2-4 feet of water, especially near back coves and points, are money right now[Georgia Fishing Report: May 16, 2025].

Bass are active early on shallow points. Once the sun climbs, switch to working brush piles or deeper holes with soft plastics and jerkbaits. The crappie post-spawn bite has been solid on minnows, especially around mid-depth brush in the creeks—about the only trick you’ll need there according to Little River Guide Service. Catfish are prowling cut banks and deeper holes, and a chunk of cut bait or big nightcrawler should get a good run.

On the inshore and tidal stretches around Savannah, the menhaden and small brown shrimp are thick right now. Live shrimp and menhaden are excellent baits for reds and trout, but don’t sleep on using dead baits when supplies run thin—multiple local bait shops, like Mr. Mosely’s in Thunderbolt, report baits selling out fast, so call ahead[Coastal River Charters].

Best lures this week: Beetle Spins and small jigs for panfish, soft plastics and jerkbaits for bass, and a classic popping cork setup with live or dead shrimp for inshore trout and redfish.

Hot spots to hit include the oxbows and backwater sloughs just upstream from Savannah, Clyo Landing for panfish and cats, and the grasslines and creek mouths near Houlihan Bridge for inshore action. Fish moving water, especially around tide changes, for your best odds.
