@@BeagleFerretTime yes pretty close! Pearl white is the way to go. Catches some giants!

@@Zanehoward88 yep you are correct! All of the creeks are fantastic in the spring but that pocket happened to produce that day. It’s a good one!

@@campetro10 we camp there a month out of every summer but I’m going to try to get up there in the spring this year. I usually fish around home in Loganville in the spring but I want to hit Lanier hard next spring. Is the fall bite good there too.? I’ve only fished it in the summer.

@@Zanehoward88 very nice! It’s a fun place to fish year round but spring is wild. Yes, the fall can be a great time as well. The NPFL came to lanier last fall and had solid weights. It can be tough but still plenty of fish and big ones.

@@danmcmanigal1978 fantastic! Hope it helps for sure! Let me know how you do. I love Hartwell it’s a fun lake. October should be a great time to fish.

It entirely depends on the model that you get. For the 852 spinning rod it is perfectly balanced the 872 is definitely tip heavy. Wow those are huge fish! There are some monster fish in lanier. It’s a fun lake

Good to know. Do they swim well? I have never tried them

Thank you! It’s Hammonds Fishing. Those swimbaits are tough to get though. They sell out quickly.

right now a lot of fish are on points and humps. if you fish these areas with a topwater or swimbait you will get bit. there are a ton of fish especially on the points. focus on 15-25 ft. of water

@campetro10 thank you so much I've been going often but no bites or anything

Great idea!

On lanier hands down a topwater lure. Nothing like a school of spotted bass coming up and destroying a topwater lure. I like a lucky graft gunfish, a super spook, or vixen in chrome or natural herring colors.

Do you normally fish shallow waters or deep waters on Lanier? And what type of top waters do you catch the most on? Whopper ploppers, chatter bait, jitterbugs, etc

@@philipbruce2161 depends on time of year and the conditions but mostly deep. i fish both deep and shallow though. i would say walking baits or whopper plopper

During the spawn the fish will move up in shallower pockets on rock and under docks.

Love the info! Agree with you all the way. Shimano and gloomis all the way for bottom contact and finesse baits. You get what you pay for. If you spend a little more on the front and take care of them they will last forever.

no problem! you dont get anything without asking. i would assume this is on lake lanier??

@@campetro10 yes sir. Thanks for responding. I primarily fish the south end of the lake.

@@kirkoliver1002 I’ll take a look next time I am at my unit next week but if you go out to the main lake or any creek and graph a point or hump from 15-25ft deep you will find brush. It is literally everywhere on the lake. It’s tougher to see on sidescan as you are looking for the shadow created by the brush but it’s all over the place.

fishing can be so rewarding and so humbling at times. i honestly just had that thought the other week at clarks hill only catching 11 lbs! bigger picture though i had a blast with a friend, got to enjoy the outdoors and day on the water, see wildlife, and got to fish so all in all not bad. trust me ive been in your shoes many times though wondering why i spend money on these fish.

yes i definitely can do that. is there a specific swimbait or type of swimbait you want to see? i posted the multi-jointed swimbait video going over most of those specific details.

What conditions you look for to fish certain glides and where you are fishing them. You had mentioned the Tater Hog and 316 Glides in past videos. When you throw those over bigger soft swimbaits? What conditions are you looking for to throw those glides, water visibility, wind, how fish are they setting up on sonar? Suspended, near bottom, relating to structure? Are you setting those fish up with different lures before throwing the bigger glides?

Also film your retrieves you use with the different glides. Anything you do differently with followers? Just some ideas, appreciate it.

Just your overall approach, what conditions you look for and when to go shallow and deep. I realize some of that will be seasonal.

great ideas. yes i can compile those details. will be a very in depth video so give me some time

Thanks! Always something to learn and take away to get better

This was April 20th.

@@campetro10 Thanks was interested cause I have an event up there this weekend

@@cliff1422 cool! Let me know how it goes. What event is it?

@@campetro10 Chestatee Bassmaster club event. Nothing major crazy

I have not! what is different about the Greenfish Sashimmy compared to a regular Spro Sashimmy Shad out of the package??

I wouldn’t say so as long as the bait has the freedom to move either should work. I use both. doesn’t seem to make a difference

It’s an awesome lake! Great views and tons of fish

Glad they help! Hopefully you continue to build confidence and success especially fishing Lanier. It is a difficult lake to learn but it has so many fish!

I gotcha. Honestly I’ve tried the bull shads and they are ok. The finish on them is not the best and the action is for very unique times of the year and applications. They catch fish for sure though! I hear you there the swimbait deal has to be a hard commit most of the time to be successful.

@@campetro10 i have been fishing glides for 2 years and they are awesome, I simply haven't put in the time with swimbaits but im sure they will crush them

depends on the swimbait as a few of them are local companies and one doesn't even have a website. if you are interested in a specific swimbait let me know which one and ill do my best to provide the information necessary to purchase it.

What was that one year u reference to in video?

of course! which bait specifically are you interested in? i can then point you in the right direction based on the lure and company that makes it.

Both of them

Like in the picture with 2 fish? Or the one in the clear box that I am holding?

@@campetro10 the first one you where showing that’s on the video cover with the picture of the 2 fish i live here in Massachusetts and been killing them during this herring run and need one of those !!

​@@Tzv3s1397 oh that is a sweet bait jr.! he is a local guy here in Atl. they are super difficult to get. he doesn't make a lot of them unfortunately and i dont think he even has a website. haha they work down here for sure! im sure they would work up there especially on those stripers.

Let me know how it goes! You will be surprised on how many just eat the blade

@@campetro10 Try as I might, the split rings are so small, I can't get them to stay open enough to slide on the stinger hook. Will take a look at some other baits I have that might have larger rings so I can manipulate them effectively.

Very cool, thanks for the feedback! The vmc crossovers have been the best I have found but they are not perfect. I have not tried the geecrack. Will definitely have to experiment with them. I’m in the same boat - still looking but that vmc is solid. It’s really close.

@@campetro10 oh I meant to also say, if I really wanna get finesse with the Neko, I put on a bold bluegill robo worm using a small vmc band. Only problem is there, you pickup more smaller fish including bream. 😂

No kidding!😂 The weekends now will be rough. Got to get up early to beat all the boats. Excellent, glad to hear. Great question, I lean towards no paddle tail now through end of summer for the most part. The herring and bass are now much more active and I feel a split tail can be worked much faster and more erratic than a paddle tail. Don’t get me wrong a paddle tail can still work however 9/10 times now I’m reaching for a straight or split tail swimbait style lure in those situations.

hmm thats a bummer. what is it getting caught on the hook? i would try switching your hook brand or hook size on the back hook to eliminate that. OR put on a new tail that is a slightly different length

@@campetro10 I will try this

very cool! goodluck and let me know if you hook a big striper up there. i know there are some monsters!
