Striper Bite

The Spring time shallow bite is in full swing. This is the time we wait for all year! Catching fish on any and every secondary clay points going into major creeks. Pulling big live baits on planer boards and free lines. Cover as much water as possible and you will absolutely catch some great fish!

Spotted bass bite

Bass have been biting great, we are catching multiple 4+ pound fish a day. The usual pre spawn areas are producing clay point, blow downs, and brush piles near spawning grounds.

Spinner baits, scroungers, shakey heads, and Ned rigs will get you the bites!!

Book a trip today and let's go catch them!

Blue Ridge Lake Fishing Reports

2024-04-16

Fishing on blue ridge has been good, catching bass and ealleye up shallow in creeks and secondary points near spawning areas

Throw Ned rigs, scroungers, and spybaits up shallow to catch your best fish.

Any rock that is in 10 foot or shallower has been holding walleye.

A secondary pattern I've been having success with is trolling plugs around 30 foot deep on main lake humps and points. A few of the bass have spawned out and will be out deeper, recovering. Most of the walleye are spawned out, they are spending the most of their time shallow but have picked up a few trolling out deeper.
