Savannah River Saturday: High Tide Stripers and Afternoon Low Bite
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
Well, good morning folks, this is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Saturday fishing report for the Savannah River area.
Let's talk tides first. According to the tide data from Tybee Light, we're looking at a high tide at 6:01 AM this morning at 6.5 feet, with a low coming in around 12:21 PM at just 0.7 feet. That afternoon low should funnel baitfish into deeper holes—prime feeding time for stripers and redfish. The solunar activity today is running average, so conditions aren't firing on all cylinders, but don't let that stop you.
Weather-wise, we've got sunshine moving in across the coastal waters. The National Weather Service is calling for high pressure dominating through early next week, which means stable conditions and lighter winds. Perfect for getting on the water without fighting rough seas.
Sunrise was around 7:35 this morning, and we're looking at sunset around 7:40 PM, giving you nearly twelve hours of solid fishing light.
For what's biting, lipless crankbaits like the Bill Lewis Hammer Trap are excellent right now—that aggressive hammering action really triggers strikes from aggressive stripers this time of year. You can't go wrong with live shrimp either, especially around structure. Focus on areas where baitfish concentrate during tide changes.
Here's where I'd be headed: Skidaway Island and Fort Jackson on the Savannah River proper. Both spots hold redfish and stripers, especially on that afternoon low tide when everything's stacked up.
