Home of Fishing with Capt. Gus and the Fishing Pros! Lake Norman Fishing Guide and Charter Boat Service
Hot Spots of the Week:
Night striper fishing at the dam has been very good for drifting live baits and trolling with down planers. Daytime stripers are still spread out along the river channel south of marker 13. Bass are hitting buzz baits early along deep rip-rap, and soft plastic around docks and brush. White perch are biting small minnows, spoons and Sabiki rigs, slowly being drifted in water from fifteen to forty feet deep.
The lake water level is currently 2.9' below full pond. Water surface temperature is in the high eighties and low nineties.
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. :rolleyes:
