  • Resumen

  • Artificial Lure here with your Wednesday morning fishing report for Lake Lanier, Georgia, April 23, 2025.

    Weather's been holding pretty steady this week. High pressure overnight gave us crisp, clear skies, and we’re starting off cool but expect temps to climb into the 60s by midday. Sunrise was right around 6:59 a.m., and sunset’s coming up at 8:10 p.m. Water temps are sitting in the low to upper 50s thanks to a mild April, which means the fish are shaking off their winter patterns and getting real active[1][4].

    Lake conditions look good. The main lake’s clear below the Highway 53 bridge, while up north and in the rivers you’ll find things a bit muddy. Most creeks range from moderate to light stain, clearing up as you get farther from the backs. Lake level’s just a tad above full pool, holding stable all week[1][2].

    The bite is on for both bass and stripers. Largemouth bass are sliding onto beds now, with water temps hitting their sweet spot of 56–60 degrees. Spotted bass are just behind, showing up on points and humps as they stage for the spawn. You’ll find fish anywhere from two feet to 30-plus feet, but a good number are stacking up on secondary points, rocky humps, and midway back in pockets[1][5].

    For gear, folks are getting it done with a mix of crankbaits and finesse. A DT6 or DT10 in red craw, or a RkCrawler 55, are both getting bites off the rocky stuff. Shaky heads, Neko rigs, and a No See Em Spot Choker with a Keitech 2.8 inch are working slow for both spots and largemouth. If the wind picks up, pull out a white spinnerbait and hit those wind-blown banks[5]. For stripers, the spring bite is heating up. Flat lines, planer boards, and live bait like bluebacks, shad, or herring out over 25–50 feet are pulling solid fish. Try topwater lures early—Zara Spooks, Chug Bugs, or Gunfish—especially if you see schooling action. Swimbaits on an articulated head with a 3.5” Keitech body will also draw reaction bites[2].

    Plenty of good reports have been rolling in from both river arms once that muddy water settles—Lathem, Yellow, Wahoo, Ada, Gainesville, and Little River creeks are all hot spots. Main lake points and humps on the lower end are prime for both numbers and size, and you won’t go wrong bouncing between boat docks along the mid-lake creeks[2].

    April is prime time on Lanier—everything from two-pounders to some real giants are showing up right now. Keep an eye on the wind and pick your spots, and you’ll stay hooked up all day. Good luck and tight lines!
