Published 1 year, 4 months ago
Description
If you're planning to hit the Savannah River today, December 7, 2024, here's what you need to know:
First off, let's talk about the tides. According to the tide forecast, you're looking at a low tide at 5:54 AM with a height of 0.62 feet, followed by a high tide at 12:16 PM with a height of 7.09 feet. The next low tide will be at 6:44 PM with a height of 0.46 feet[2].
The weather is expected to be mild, with sunrise at 7:11 AM and sunset at 5:18 PM. This time of year, the water temperatures are cooler, which can make for some excellent fishing.
For fish activity, the Savannah River is known for its diverse fish population. You can expect to catch both freshwater and saltwater species. Yesterday, anglers reported catching largemouth bass, particularly around creek mouths using artificial lures like bucktails and large jigs. Bluegill and redear sunfish were also active, with crickets and worms fished under a bobber being effective. Catfish were caught in the deeper holes, and striped bass were biting on topwaters and large jigs[1].
If you're targeting inshore favorites like Redfish and Trout, focus on oyster bars, creek mouths, and grass flats. The Wassaw Sound and the Wilmington River are hot spots for these species. Use a popping cork with live bait or artificial imitations for Redfish, and soft plastics or live shrimp for Speckled Trout[3].
For a more specific location, the Bull River Bridge on the Savannah River is a great spot for Sheepshead using a Carolina rig with live or mud minnows on a circle hook. If you're after Flounder, head to the Skidaway and Herb Rivers with the same setup[3].
In summary, today's fishing on the Savannah River looks promising, especially with the right lures and bait. Make sure to check the local regulations to ensure you're compliant with all fishing rules. Happy fishing
