? Blue Ridge Lake Fishing Report โ€“ June 17th Location: Blue Ridge, GA Brought to you by Captain Hoek Fishing Adventures Fishing on Blue Ridge Lake has been solid this week, with water temperatures in the 78โ€“80ยฐF range and clear conditions making for some great opportunities to target spotted bass and walleye. Weโ€™ve been finding consistent action on both freelined and downlined herring, especially around main lake points and near the tower at the dam. Sunny days have provided the best bite windows, with fish more active in the clear water. For anglers looking to mix it up, drop shots, shaky heads, and small forward-facing sonar minnows have also been producing well, particularly when bass are schooling or hugging the structure. Nowโ€™s a great time to hit Blue Ridge โ€” whether youโ€™re after a hard-fighting spotted bass or looking to hook into a quality walleye, the fish are biting.

? Carters Lake Fishing Report โ€“ June 17th Location: Ellijay, GA Brought to you by Captain Hoek Fishing Adventures The bite is heating up on Carters Lake as we move into the heart of June. Water temperatures are holding steady around 82ยฐF, and the stripers and hybrid bass have been active, especially on sunny days. Weโ€™re finding fish suspended around 50 feet over 80โ€“100 feet of water, primarily in the mouths of major creek arms. The go-to tactic continues to be downlining live herring, which has been producing solid numbers of both stripers and hybrids. Clients have enjoyed steady action, with some quality fish coming over the rails. The clear, calm mornings with lots of sunshine have been the most productive, so get out early and be ready for the morning feed. Whether youโ€™re a seasoned angler or just looking for a day on the water, nowโ€™s a great time to get on the lake. Book your trip today with Captain Hoek Fishing Adventures and letโ€™s put you on some fish!

Carters Lake May 2025
Carters Lake May 2025
May 25, 2025 Ellijay
Carters Lake Fishing Report โ€“ May 2025 Brought to you by Capโ€™n Hoek Fishing Adventures May has delivered a fair amount of rainfall to the Carters Lake region, leading to fluctuating water levels and some stained conditions. Despite these challenges, the fishing remains productive for those targeting striped bass, spotted bass, and walleye. Water temperatures have been averaging around 78ยฐF, keeping fish active and on the move. Striped Bass: Stripers have been feeding well around creek mouths and shallow-water markers on the main lake. Live bait fished on slip floats and freelined rigs in 10 to 20 feet of water has been the go-to approach. Early mornings and overcast conditions have been especially productive. Walleye: Walleye are holding deeper, with the most consistent action coming from 20 to 25 feet of water. Weโ€™ve been catching them using downlined live bait along rocky points and deeper ledges. Stay mobile and cover ground until you mark fish. Spotted Bass: Spotted bass are biting well in the 5 to 10-foot range, particularly near the mouths of creeks. Target shallow cover and transition areas with soft plastics or live bait presentations. The bite has been steady throughout the day, with peak activity during early morning hours. The post-rain conditions may require a bit more effort, but the fish are still hungry and willing to bite. Stay flexible, fish smart, and youโ€™ll find success out on the water. Tight lines from Capโ€™n Hoek Fishing Adventures!

Blue Ridge Lake Fishing Report โ€“ May 2025 Brought to you by Capโ€™n Hoek Fishing Adventures May has brought its share of rainfall to the Blue Ridge Lake area, creating challenges with rising water levels and fluctuating clarity. But despite the conditions, the fishing has remained steady for anglers targeting spotted bass and walleye. Current water temperatures are averaging around 76ยฐF, keeping fish active and catchable for those willing to adapt. Spotted Bass: Spots have been biting consistently in the 5 to 10-foot range, especially during the early morning hours. The best action has come around main lake points and dock lights, where fish are feeding on baitfish. Weโ€™re finding success using live bait as well as finesse soft plastic luresโ€”think drop shots and shaky headsโ€”for a natural presentation in the clearer pockets. Walleye: Walleye are holding deeper and have been most reliably caught in the 30 to 40-foot zone. Downlined live bait has been the most productive method, especially around deeper humps and along the creek channels. It may take some searching with electronics, but when you find them, the bite has been rewarding. While recent rains have affected the lake, overall fishing remains solid. The key is adjusting to the water conditions and staying persistent. With a little patience and the right presentation, thereโ€™s plenty of action to be had this month on Blue Ridge Lake.

Apr 15, 2024 Blue Ridge
Fishing on blue ridge has been good, catching bass and ealleye up shallow in creeks and secondary points near spawning areas Throw Ned rigs, scroungers, and spybaits up shallow to catch your best fish. Any rock that is in 10foot or shallower has been holding walleye. A secondary pattern ive been having success with is trolling plugs around 30foot deep on main lake humps and points. A few of the bass have spawned out and will be out deeper recovering. Most of the walleye are spawned out they are spending the most of there time shallow but have picked up a few trolling out deeper. Call and book your trip today and lets catch some dinner !
