One of the best things about fishing in winter is Crappie! You’ll find schools of these fish in the upper and middle sections of the river.

What other fish loves colder waters? Bass, of course! If you’re hoping to battle it out with a Striper or land a record-breaking Spotted Bass, February is your month. 

Bass continue to reign supreme as we move into March. You’ll find Hybrid and Striped Bass making runs up the river to feed.

Yep, Bass is in the cards in April too. This is the best time of year to hook into Largemouth Bass in the Savannah River and you’ll also have a shot at tasty Rainbow Trout.

Bluegill, Catfish, and Largemouth Bass are up for grabs as we settle into spring. The large number of bait fish in the river sets fishing on fire!

It’s your best month to hook into what some argue is the most delicious of its kind – Brook Trout! Give yourself a little extra time on the water, catching this fish requires skill and patience.

It’s summertime, and boy can you feel it! Head out early to beat the heat while you fish for massive Catfish. In the upper sections of the river, anglers are still battling it out with Largemouth Bass.

It’s hot and most of the river’s fish are seeking cooler waters. The deeper the water, the more likely you are to come across a variety of Bass. Alternatively, head out in search of Tarpon where the river empties into the Atlantic. 

Early fall can be one of the best times on the river! The waters are cooling and the crowds are gone, meaning you’ll have all the Spotted Bass and Catfish to yourself.

Speckled Trout and Redfish start to move into the lower sections of the river, as they seek out shallower waters. Further north, you can try for Largemouth Bass and Catfish.

If you’re hoping to snag some of those saltwater fish, this is your best chance. Speckled Trout and Redfish make moves in the lower sections of the river.

December might as well be called “Bass month.” Striped, Hybrid, Largemouth, and Smallmouth are all available in different sections of the river and the surrounding waterways.
