Lake Lanier Fishing Report June 20 - June 26

Hello Everyone -

Remember gang, continue to use the JIMBO code at LanierMAPPED.com for a 20% Discount on all of our products!! What a great time to purchase main lake clips as well as clips at the mouths of the creeks. The fish are in the off-shore brush now, and the LanierMAPPED.com information is more important than ever. For packages, I still highly recommmend Main Lake North and Main Lake South - focus on the humps with brush and brush piles on points/drops near deep water. LanierMAPPED.com is more important than ever right now - we have those key areas marked with video and that information will put you on the fish. And, better yet, our Pro's Package is available on an IPAD - all the information comes pre-loaded - WOW!!

This week's Lake Lanier Fishing Report is once again brought to you by LanierMAPPED.com - Check out the new "How To" Video on our home page!! Local Professional Angler Eric Aldrich does an excellent job of explaining how to use the LanierMAPPED.com technology to truly improve your fishing. And, as I noted above, now is really the time you need the LanierMAPPED.com information - the fish are pulled out away from the bank on key features off-shore - and we have those features on our videos!!

I had two guide trips this week. I had pleasure of guiding an FLW Pro this week that was in town to prepare for the cup. I gave him a great perspective of the lake and showed him some key areas where they are biting now, as well as where they should be biting in August. We caught our fish on a drop shot - our biggest was over 3 pounds, but he broke one off after a long fight that was most certainly in the 5 pound range. This angler (I will keep his name of the blog out of respect for him) was from the Western division, and he was AMAZING with a drop shot. He is a fantastic guy and an incredible angler - I wish him well in the Cup! I also had the pleasure of taking out a father/son team for a trip later in the week. We had a great time, and found some topwater fish for them, even in the heat. We got fish to come up on a Sammy and a Fluke. We caught our bigger fish on a drop shot, including a spot over 3, and a 5 pound largemouth. Check out my website for pics! jimboonlanier.com For the drop shot fish, worms were the ticket - stay versatile with the colors - the fish will tell you what they want!

Lake Lanier Fishing Report - June 6th - 12th, 2010

Hello Everyone -

My apologies to all for my lengthy absence from this report. My father passed away on May 15th, and as you can imagine, I was unable to get on the water for awhile, and therefore had nothing to report. I am writing this week's report in honor of my father, Alex, who instilled the love of fishing in me at an early age, one of the many things he did for which I will remain forever grateful.

Onto to the fun stuff! This week's Lake Lanier Fishing Report is once again brought to you by LanierMAPPED.com - Check out the new "How To" Video on our home page!! Local Professional Angler Eric Aldrich does an excellent job of explaining how to use the LanierMAPPED.com technology to truly improve your fishing. And now is really the time you need the LanierMAPPED.com information - the fish are pulled out away from the bank on key features off-shore - and we have those features on our videos!!

I was out on the Lake 2 days this week and really caught them. We caught fish on topwater throughout the day - all off of humps and brush piles on the main lake and in the mouth's of major creeks. I have been throwing Zara Spooks, Rico's, and mainly a Gunfish to generate my strikes. A medium to fast retrieve seemed to work best - anything to mimic the blue-herring shad skittering on the surface! I know some other baits are working well now too, but I can't bring myself to put down the topwater plugs when they are eating them so well!

Jimbo's Lake Lanier Guide Service is officially launched and operating - come join us for some fun on the water! Jimbo's Guide Service is powered by LanierMAPPED.com (of course!) - check out my website for all the details and some great pictures jimboonlanier.com

A new CBC Tournament is coming up this weekend!! June 19th out of Little Hall - SL to 3 PM. Come join us - Rich and I will be representing the LanierMAPPED.com team in the event. The last CBC tournament in May was also a great event and the church raised some much-needed funds for their youth ministry. Thanks to everyone who came out and supported this great cause! We look forward to seeing you all back at Little Hall this coming Saturday, June 19th for another awesome event. Registration is $100 per boat in advance, $125 at the ramp.

Remember gang, continue to use the JIMBO code at LanierMAPPED.com for a 20% Discount on all of our products!! What a great time to purchase main lake clips as well as clips at the mouths of the creeks. The topwater action is here and will only get better- be ready and know where those brush-piles are and the magnum spotted bass are hiding! For packages, I still highly recommmend Main Lake North, Main Lake South, and Six Mile Creek right now, along with the Four Mile and Two Mile creek area - you can really catch them off the LanierMAPPED.com spots in those areas for sure. You may want to check out the FREE Demo Clip on our website as well - I seem to recall catching some good fish off that spot recently!!
