Fishing Overview for Lake Sidney Lanier

Metro Atlanta’s most popular fishery, Lake Sidney Lanier is renowned for spotted bass and trophy striped bass, plus largemouth, crappie, and catfish; spring brings hot dock-light crappie action, summer/fall shine with topwater spotted bass on herring schools, and winter is prime for big stripers on live bait; multiple marinas, ramps, and parks make access easy compared with Lake Allatoona or West Point Lake.

Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 14:26 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

Full Moon is generally a productive time for fishing - especially night fishing. Bright nights mean that many predators feed more actively during the night. During full moon the gravitational pull is in line with the gravitational pull of the sun, affecting all wildlife and increasing feeding behaviour.
  • Distance to earth:
    401,059 km
    Proximity:
    10.9 %
We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.
