Savannah River Hot Bite: Reds, Stripers, and Drum Limits in March
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
Hey y'all, this is Artificial Lure comin' atcha with your Savannah River fishin' report for March 4th, 2026, right here on the Georgia-South Carolina line. Mornin' tide at Port Wentworth hit high around 8:50am at over 7 feet, droppin' to low by afternoon—perfect for workin' the outgoing current where the big ones feed. Sunrise was at 6:51am, sunset 7:56pm per Tide-Forecast.com, givin' ya a solid 13 hours of light.
Weather's cooperative: northeast winds 5-10 knots, seas 3-4 feet with some fog lingerin' early, straight from the marine forecast for Edisto to Savannah. Water temps hoverin' in the low 60s, wakin' up the reds and stripers.
Fish activity's hot lately—anglers reportin' solid catches of red drum, speckled trout, and black drum in the river bends. Limits of 18-25 inch reds on the flats, plus a few 5-pound stripers hittin' near the bridges. Sheepshead pilin' up on structure, some folks pullin' 20-fish days.
Best lures? Gold spoonfish or mirrored mirrordines on the troll for reds—dance 'em slow in the tide. Jerkbaits like DOA Shrimp in natural colors for trout. Live bait kings: fresh shrimp under a float or mud minnows on bottom rigs for drum. Fish the incoming for topwater action, switch to outgoing for deeper bites.
Hit these hot spots: Purrysburg Landing for easy bank access and strong currents pullin' baitfish, or the Savannah River Entrance buoys where the ocean mix stirs up stripers. Launch early, stay safe out there.
