Thread: Weiss Reports

Planning on going down sat. and staying for a week on Weiss. Can't wait!!! What's the latest reports, water temps, etc.?? Thanks!

Have a trip planned for tomorrow (Thursday). Will post results on Friday.

BTW.... I hear that a new cold front is moving in on Friday, with rain, snow, and wind forecast for Saturday.

I won't be down until next Friday or I would let you know how it goes for me. If you have any pointers from this week I would be happy to hear from you. This will be my first trip to Wiess. Good luck!

down for 4 days last thurs through friday, temp was around 47 at church house, little river wasnt ready yet and average 11 inchers, best day had 37. the water should be warming and getting close to little river

Well, I said I would post my results, so here goes. Fished about 5 hours Thursday in the Chattooga River arm. Water temp was around 50 deg when I got there, and warmed up to high 50's by afternoon. Lake level appears to be at or near full pool. Had absolutely no luck at all. Tried jigs and live bait at depths of about 4 ft down to 12 ft. Fished river channel ledges, flats, and even tried some shallow blowdowns. My only guess is that the water was still too muddy from the big rains earlier in the week. There was also a lot of trash (leaves, wood, etc) still floating down the lake.

Don't let my report discourage you. Heck, for all I know, someone else may have killed em yesterday, but the few other boats I spoke with had results similar to mine. In any event, I'm sure the good fishing will be back soon. We just need a few days of stable weather, which looks like we will have starting Sunday. Good luck, and let us know how ya did.

can someone explain where is churchouse?

Across from bay springs marina,but I heard it is dead know. To many boats earlier taking there limits

Still a lot of boats fishing. Wed. & Thursday was good over there trolling-saw several boats fishing minnows on front of bay. Most of the fish that we caught had moved back out and was holding around 14 ft. due to the front and cold nights but they had split tails and several had bloody tails.......

ok ya lost me on bloody tails??

Think maybe someone is trying to say that the fish are fanning beds. That will surely split and bloody the tails.
