The bass fishing on Lake Lanier remains very good and we are seeing several post-spawn fish. A Georgia Blade spinnerbait, a Lanier Baits 3.5 Swimmer, and even some topwater have been productive, and of course a worm. The Georgia Blade Spinnerbait on shallow rock has remained good for us this week in the wind, as has swimming a Lanier Baits 3.5 Swimmer on a 1/8 LB jighead. The fish we are catching remain shallow in most cases – focus on 15 feet and less. Points, humps, rocks, docks – all have fish on them. When the fish aren’t chasing, the worm on a shaky head is hard to beat. A whacky-rigged senko is also a good option in the worm category as well. Want more specific details? Keep scrolling…

Hey,

Good report. It’s great because I went yesterday and killed it. I found the exact pattern you spoke of. fished way up north, Saw top water schooling, moved in with a fluke and scored several. Went back later, moved out further and found bigger ones piled up and drug a spinner bait below them and pulled out another load.
The report is nice because it confirms the question in my head yesterday.”is this a one off pattern” and your research and video gives me confidence that I actually found something and made the most of it.

Thanks!!!! Michael Shively
