Line side fishing is hit or miss right now. The bait is still out over the river channel and so are the fish. Down lines are working best right now and the fish are deep. The best bite is between 24-40 feet deep. Thread-fin shad and shiners are both working well. Mid lake seems to be holding most of the bait and fish right now. But in the next couple of weeks we should start seeing more bait on the south end of the lake and with the bait comes the fish. Forget heading north, With all the rain we have had lately it is nothing more then a mud hole north of Kelloggs Creek. We hope we are just a few days away from some good striper fishing on Allatoona. Trolling is by far the best bite on the lake right now. The Mack Farr 4 arm u-rig loaded with 9 1/2 oz buchtails trolled right in the middle of the river channel at a speed of 2.9 miles ang hour will get you bit…. Just remember you only allowed 2 stripers over 22 inches per person in the boat, stripes, hybrids and white bass. It seems like most people think that just applies to stripers But they are wrong it applies to all line sides. The State will be doing boat checks all winter. Stay with in your limit.
