Top Ten Bass Lakes in Georgia

1. Clark's Hill Lake

Bass fishing is good year round here but is great in the spring time when the blueback herring come here to spawn.



2. Lake Hartwell

It is good to use crankbaits in the creeks during the fall, and jigging spoons and bucktails are an excellent lure to use on the lower lake during the winter.



3. Lake Oconee
The docks on Lake Oconee hold fish year round and it is best to use plastic worms around them.




4. Lake Sinclair

Just downstream of Lake Oconee, this is a great lake in the winter due to the warm water discharge from a power plant. Carolina rigs are good to use year round on points.



5. Jackson Lake

Jackson Lake is one of the oldest lakes in Georgia. I suggest to try docks and points during the summer and backs of coves in the spring.



6. Lake Lanier

It's clear waters help make this lake good for bed fishing.



7. West Point Lake

During the wintertime it is good to find deep brush and jig a spoon around it.



8. Bartlett's Ferry
During the fall and spring try boat docks and use plastics and crankbaits. Also topwater lures are good to use around 9 months of the year there.

9. Lake Eufaula

Fish topwater from the late winter time to the late spring time.

10. Lake Seminole
The bass here often spwn in Jan. and Feb.
