Santee Lakes Fishing Report

Good afternoon everyone! Aaron had a solid start to last weeks night fishing event so our spotlight is on him today! Incase you couldn't make it and you're experiencing FOMO then don't worry! We still have 5 more night fishing events to go and there is one every other week. 

The bass bite has remained consistent over the past few weeks. There has been action on all the lakes, however, lake 5 still seems to be producing the best results. The best bait to use right now for bass are spinners, crankbaits, swimbaits, and a few reports of top water working also. 

Some exciting news with catfish! Our next stock, which is on this friday, will also include 40 tagged catfish! If you catch a tagged catfish take it to the store, show them the fish with the tag still in it as well as your permit and you'll get a $25 gift card! If you're still looking for something fun to do for your Dad, this could be the perfect fathers day outing! We will be stocking lakes 3 and 4 this Friday. The catfish have been biting the best off of stinkbait, shrimp, mackerel, or nightcrawlers! 

If you have little ones that you might want to teach how to fish right now is a good time for that as well. The bluegill are biting right now and they're the perfect fish to try and catch when showing them the ropes. 

Plenty of action and fun events coming up so make sure to come on out!

If you're feeling hungry while you're out here fishing stop on by Angry Pete's Pizza! Located next door to the general store they serve Pizza, sandwiches, burgers, sweets, and beer! We hope to see you out here!
