Area Fishing

FRESHWATER


Lake Marion and Lake Moultrie | Catfish: Very good. Capt. Jim Glenn reports that the bite for nice-sized catfish from 10 pounds into the 30s has been very good, even in the heat of the day. Largemouth bass: Fair. Capt. Inky Davis reports that on the upper part of Lake Marion around Pack's Landing the water has been full of crayfish and it has been too easy for the bass to eat. Bream: Fair. Bream fishing has slowed substantially in both lakes. Fish around trees and move around to find the fish. Crappie: Slow. Crappie fishing has dropped off in the last two weeks; fish around brushpiles in 18 to 20 feet of water with crappie minnows. S.C. DNR
