Drought?

 

The southeast is officially out of drought status. In fact, there have been recent record flooding rains that have filled the lakes.

In the Atlanta area,

Lake Alatoona is again full.

Thanks to several recent heavy rainfalls and storms,

Lake Lanier

rose rapidly & dramatically -

now

(7/5/10)

IS STAYING AROUND FULL POOL

after reaching an astounding 20' down just several months ago!

And more rain is in the forecast for spring & summer!

 

FISHERMEN ARE

ON THE WATER AGAIN

- and -

CATCHING FISH !

ALL BOAT RAMPS ON LAKE LANIER ARE OPEN AND MANY OF THE RAMPS WERE EXTENDED WHEN THE LAKE WAS DOWN.

 

October through May are prime months for land-locked striper fishing and the easiest time of year to catch a striper on fly rod - although stripers can still occasionally be caught shallow throughout the summer.

Largemouth & Spotted Bass are feeding on the surface NOW and a typical day can produce six to 30 fish - from 1 lb. to 5 or 6 lbs.

Meanwhile, River Hawk sales are booming: There's no pond, lake or river too dry for the shallow draft of a River Hawk boat! And even our largest boats can be launched from a dry lake/pond bank.

We're seeing quite a few current owners of bass boats and bay boats purchase a second boat: a B-60 Pro Caster or B-60 Kingfish Edition. In so doing, they're discovering - or rediscovering - the joys and pleasures of small boat fishing. There's no thrill like catching a 10 lb. to 20 lb. (or larger) striper from a River Hawk boat!

Right now, on any given day on Lake Lanier, several B-60s, Pro Casters and Kingfish Editions can be seen with spin and fly fishermen throwing at surface-feeding stripers and spots. What a Hoot!

Contact your local Authorized River Hawk Dealer - or call us at the factory - for advice on which model is best suited to your type of fishing.

Don't let drought - or rumors of drought - keep you from fishing this year.
