You will not be able to get lodging down at Lake Talquin in FL, because there is a CrappieUSA tournament on 2/5 at that lake....
Just as any FYI, one not to head to.
As far as one to head to....I am not all that familiar with the southern GA lakes...I am in middle GA, so it depends how far up you want to head really....
Helo Don G, Welcome to Georgia Crappie.Com. I am in Savannah on the south east coast and can't help you on southern Georgia and north Fla. But Drill Instructer has been catching some quality crappie at Clarks Hill in central Georgia[ See his post on Clarks Hill] I am sure he will be happy to share some info. with you and put you on some good fish.Wish I could help you more. Good luck. Jimmy S.
I have read some good reports from the Bob Bass threads in regard to Seminole in the southwest corner of the state. But as far as how to fish it.....I have not a clue. Very different lake. EVERYTHING looks fishy. I have been putting in some time on Blackshear near Cordele, and have not done so well. But they are there. There are a few people on this board that could chime in on Blackshear and give you some quality info. I will be fishing Blackshear this Sunday and will be sure to post a report Sunday night.
I say if at all possible come a little further north and try Oconee or Sinclair....my preference would be Oconee....maybe catch a few less fish, but way better quality.....
If you decide on Oconee or Sinclair let me know and maybe we can talk before then and get you in a good spot to catch some fish.
all the info. We really like dock fishing better than trolling so if any of the mentioned lakes have a lot of docks we would like to know.
GA Boy, We are not hung up on South GA or FL just trying to find better weather than here in VA.lol.. I'm going to look Sinclair & Oconee up on the map.
Thanks again
Lots of docks on Blackshear. Not sure about the others.Quote:

GREAT LAKE for dock-fishing......you will not be at a shortage for docks to fish at...
The docks on Clarks Hill are few and far between......You can find some bunched together, but not a lake to fish at as far as docks go. Still have quite a few slabs though!
