Mid lake flats are producing great numbers of hybrid right now, the likes of which I have'nt seen in several years. With the drought shrinking the lake, we have a lot of fish in relatively smalll areas. Using live shad on downrods are still producing good numbers. The topwater bite is still in bloom for about the first 45 minutes.Once again, the sammy from bass pro in the texas shad color is working the best.

It truely is an early morning ballgame but during that time, the fishing can be non'stop. These fish love cooler water and are going crazy feeding on shad up on the flats. If you are staying home because of the water situation, you are missing out big time on some good fishing.

Allatoona Guide service has secured a marina slip for the winter months. No matter how low the water gets, we will be operational. I say, let it fall and say hello to a fishing scene unfolding into hyperdrive! Cap'n Fred
