Spring Redfish and Trout Heating Up on Savannah River

# Savannah River Fishing Report
Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure bringing you your Savannah River fishing report for this fine Sunday morning.
We're looking at prime spring conditions on the Savannah right now. The water's warming up nicely, and that means the fish are starting to move shallow. Tidal activity is crucial this time of year—you'll want to fish the incoming tide, especially around the slack water periods when baitfish bunch up. That's when the redfish and spotted seatrout get most aggressive.
Speaking of which, inshore redfish and trout are absolutely up on the flats right now. We're also seeing solid activity on vermillion snapper and triggerfish in the deeper channels. The red grouper bite has been consistent too. If you're targeting bass, both largemouth and smallmouth are responding well to spring patterns, so don't overlook the freshwater sections where the river widens out.
For lures, I'm throwing topwater early and late—a good popper or walking plug will draw strikes from aggressive redfish. During midday, switch to soft plastics like paddle-tail shads in natural colors. For live bait, mullet and shrimp are your bread and butter. They work everywhere from the tidal creeks to the main channel.
Here's where I'd be casting: the marsh grass edges around Hutchinson Island are holding plenty of redfish right now, and the deeper holes near the Tybee Island channel are producing nice trout. The structure around the old pilings always holds fish.
Water clarity should be decent with spring runoff tapering off. Sunrise and sunset will give you your best bite windows today.
