This Lake Allatoona Fishing Guides Report is bought to you by Robert Eidson of First Bite Guide Service. 770 827- 6282 www.firstbiteguideservice.com [email protected]. Line - Sides !!! The bite is getting better and so is the water clarity. The bite this week has been decent. The majority of the fish are still in eye-site of the dam but we are also hearing reports of fish being caught mid lake and as far north as the flats at the delta. The fish are in very tight schools and sometimes running very deep for this time of year. This week we have caught a few fish on free lines, but most of our catch is coming on down lines fished anywhere from 20-55 feet deep. The live bait bite is starting to change..... The fish have been on and almost allTrout diet for most of the winter. But this past week that has started to change. They seem to prefer shad over trout 3 - 1 and even higher at times. Once the water temperature hits 55 degrees I will be using shad 100% of the time. I really think we are going to have and early spawn run this year. I think in the next week and a half we will see the fish start migrating north and start staging on the flats and humps getting ready to make the run up the river... This will be a welcome site for me I am ready for spring, We still have a few opening for spring break. Give us a call and book your trip today 770 827-6282.
