# Savannah River Fishing Report - Friday, November 28th

Hey there, folks! Artificial Lure here bringing you your Friday morning fishing report for the Savannah River area. Let's get right into it.

**Tides and Conditions**

Today we're looking at low tide activity in Savannah proper. High tides hit at 1:57 AM and 2:25 PM, with lows at 7:56 AM and 8:44 PM. Tybee Light's showing similar patterns with highs at 1:03 AM and 1:31 PM. The tidal coefficient's sitting at 48, which means we're in the low range—not ideal, but workable. Sunrise was around 7:04 AM, and we'll see sunset at 5:19 PM, so you've got good daylight hours ahead.

**Fish Activity**

According to the solunar forecast, today's a low activity day fishery-wise. Not your best day out there, but don't let that stop you. The redfish, speckled trout, and flounder are still feeding in these Georgia waters. We've seen consistent reports of folks targeting these species throughout November.

**What to Throw**

For the conditions we're dealing with today, I'd recommend live shad and swimbaits working the current breaks. If you're jigging, heavy spoons are your friend in the deeper holes. Artificial lures like topwater plugs can work near the marshes during those feeding windows we've got coming up.

**Hot Spots**

Head down to Elba Island northeast of the Savannah River—it's been consistent this month. Also, don't sleep on Port Wentworth if you can get there. Both locations have shown decent activity with the right tide windows.

**Final Thoughts**

Today's not going to break any records, but there's still fish to be caught. Get out early, work the deeper holes, and be patient.

# Savannah River Fishing Report – Thursday, November 27th

Hey folks, Artificial Lure here with your morning fishing report for the Savannah area. Let's dive right in.

**Tides and Timing**

We're looking at a low tide at 3:21 AM that already passed, with the next low coming in at 4:08 PM. High tides hit at 9:46 AM and 9:58 PM. The sun came up at 6:59 this morning and will set at 5:21 PM, so you've got solid daylight hours ahead. The tidal coefficient is sitting at 68, which is average – decent movement for the fish to be active.

**Weather Window**

We've got a small craft advisory in effect through Thursday afternoon with easterly winds at 20 knots gusting to 25. Seas are running 5 to 7 feet out in the sound, so stick to the inshore waters if you want calmer conditions. Visibility is limited, but that shouldn't stop the bite.

**What's Biting**

Recent reports show redfish and speckled trout are the primary targets right now. The redfish bite has been particularly strong – anglers are landing 30 to 40 fish per trip in good conditions. Flounder are also active along the bottom. For artificial presentations, light tackle with topwater lures and soft plastics are producing. Live bait fishing with fresh mullet and shrimp is your ticket for redfish and trout.

**Hot Spots**

I'd recommend hitting the marshes and sound areas – check out Gadny Bay area where there's plenty of structure. The channels leading back into the marsh hold concentrations of reds, especially on the incoming tide we're heading into at mid-morning.

Artificial Lure here with your Savannah River, Georgia and South Carolina fishing report for Wednesday, November 26, 2025.

The morning greeted us with clear skies and a sunrise peeking over the live oaks right at 7:03 am, with sunset set for 5:20 pm. It’s a classic chilly November morning on the river, and high pressure’s been hanging around, making for calmer winds out of the southwest at 5 to 10 knots and seas out in the bays at a modest 2 to 3 feet, as confirmed by the National Weather Service. It’s one of those honest fall days where your breath steams on that first cast and the river seems to glow around sunup.

Tidewise, folks at Tides4Fishing report today started out with a low at 6:02 am, then a nice midday high rolling in at 12:35 pm around 7.8 feet, falling again by evening to a minor low at 6:55 pm. With that solunar table showing low fish activity, I’d make the most of that late-morning push and mid-afternoon slack.

The recent cold snap followed by this week's bit of warmth has the fish riled up and biting everywhere. Shane over at the Waycross Journal-Herald says the panfish action downriver is “off the chain,” and Tyler Finch landed 108 bluegill and shellcrackers in the lower Savannah over two days using a 3/16 oz white Perch Hounder spinnerbait tipped with a cricket—so you know the bream bite’s still hot. Crickets, worms, and beetle spins are still your go-to for panfish. Cover near brush piles, eddies, and blowdowns.

Moving downstream towards the brackish stretches near the Port and Thunderbolt, redfish and trout continue to reward a patient angler. According to Savannah River Fishing Report Today, stripers and cats are also putting up dependable runs around the shipyards and deep holes. For trout, popping corks with live shrimp or white curly tail grubs are putting numbers in the boat, while reds are hammering soft plastics in electric chicken and chartreuse. Sheepshead are showing up in good numbers around bridge pylons and rock jetties—fiddler crabs are your best bet there.

Upstream, the bite on largemouth and spotted bass is solid where the river arms slow, especially on slow-rolled spinnerbaits and chartreuse crankbaits. With the river a little low, stick to the outside bends and deeper runs, and watch out for snags in the skinny water.

A couple hot spots you’ll want to try:
- The cut below Hutchinson Island, where stripers are feeding heavy on shad at the edges of moving tides.
- The marsh mouth at Turner’s Creek, where trout and slot reds hold tight to drop-offs and oyster beds.

Baitwise, if you’re not chasing bream with crickets, bring live shrimp, mud minnows, or small menhaden for inshore game. For artificial fans, you can’t go wrong with a white paddle tail or a gold spoon on the outgoing.

All in all, it’s a stellar week for Savannah River fishermen—just bundle up and mind the boat ramps, as the river’s a touch low. Fish currents, work the tides, and as always, respect local limits.

Artificial Lure here, bringing you your Savannah River fishing report for Tuesday, November 25th, 2025. We’ve got a classic fall morning shaping up, and there’s plenty of action out on the water from downtown Savannah clear up past the state line.

First, your tides: Early risers saw low tide at 5:25 am with the river bottoming out around just over a foot, and the next high tide’s coming in at 11:24 am, peaking near 7.7 feet according to tide-forecast.com. If you’re on the evening shift, look for the next low at 6:08 pm with another subtle drop, then the tide will slowly begin to fill back in. Today’s tidal coefficient is about 50—pretty average for November—but it’s enough movement to get the fish feeding.

Weather-wise, it’s another stunning Lowcountry autumn day. Expect partly cloudy skies all day, highs pushing into the upper 70s, and lows in the upper 50s if you’re making an all-day affair. No rain in sight and only a light breeze from the southeast, maybe 10 knots or so—perfect for both bank and boat anglers. Sunrise was at 7:02 am, and sunset’s set for 5:20 pm, giving you a solid window for those prime times according to Pat Prokop’s Weather Page.

Now, here’s what’s biting: Striped bass are starting their winter push, especially around the deeper curves near Elba Island and the lower river bridges. Folks fishing live mullet or cut bait on carolina rigs have been connecting, especially mid-morning over structure. Speckled trout and redfish are stacking up around mud flats and grass edges, taking advantage of the outgoing tide—try soft plastic paddletails in new penny or chartreuse, or toss shrimp under a popping cork for steady action.

Bass anglers upriver near Augusta are still reporting decent largemouth, especially in the coves near Butler Creek, using crankbaits in shad colors and finesse worms. Catfish catches are steady with big channels and blues taking cut gizzard shad or even fresh chicken breast. Georgia Outdoor News has also highlighted some slabs of black crappie recently out of backwater sloughs—think small minnows or jigs in black and chartreuse.

As for results, recent days have seen fine catches of keeper reds and a few over-slot trout near the Lazaretto Creek mouth, while near Fort Pulaski shorelines, anglers pulled in mixed bags of whiting and flounder—nothing massive this week, but plenty of fish for the cooler.

Best baits right now: Live shrimp if you can get it, otherwise mud minnows or cut mullet for the predators and nightcrawlers or shad for the cats. For lures, go with DOA shrimp, Gulp! swimming mullet in natural colors, or a MirrOlure 17MR for the trout—especially at first light or dusk.

A couple of hot spots to put on your map: The pilings around Talmadge Memorial Bridge often hold stripers and reds on a moving tide, and the spoil islands downstream of Hutchinson have been prime for trout, especially on the outgoing water. Don’t skip the mouth of Back River just as the water starts to move, either.

Thank y’all for tuning in to today’s Savannah River fishing report! Hope your lines stay tight and your nets stay heavy. Don’t forget to subscribe for your daily fix of local angling intel. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease dot ai.

Artificial Lure here with your Savannah River fishing report for Monday, November 24, 2025.

We’re coming off a moderate tidal swing today, with low tide hitting around 4:36 a.m. and the next high running just after 11 a.m. According to Tides4Fishing, sunrise was at 7:01 a.m. and sunset will be 5:20 p.m. That means you’ve got prime daylight hours lined up well with a good moving tide. Solunar activity won’t be extreme—just a touch above average—but fish will use those turns to feed.

Right now, skies are partly cloudy with light winds out of the east at 10 to 15 knots. The National Weather Service expects temps in the mid-60s this morning rising to low 70s by afternoon—ideal for an active bite. Water clarity is fair, thanks to the ebb tide flushing some color out.

Locals and guides are reporting strong action on redfish, black drum, and a few speckled trout, especially near marsh creeks and river bends. Coastal River Charters just posted a catch of keeper-sized black drum, and their clients limited out on reds south of the port. Even with the cooling weather, flounder remain in the mix—look for them tight to structure, especially where oyster beds meet mud bottom.

Recent bait balls are thick with mullet and menhaden, and that’s drawn in blue cats and stripers up toward the Interstate 95 bridge. Folks drifting live or cut bait are doing best for cats—blue cat to 20 lbs and channel cats in the 5-10 lb range have come over the rail this weekend.

Artificial-wise, it’s all about soft plastics that mimic shrimp or finger mullet. Try paddletails in motor oil or new penny colors on a 1/8 oz jig for reds and trout in the grass lines. If the water’s murky from tide, switch to chartreuse. Gulp Alive shrimp on a jighead can be magic this time of year. For flounder, opt for a white curly tail grub bounced slow.

Live shrimp is always a favorite—fish it under a popping cork for trout and reds just off current breaks. Cut mullet works for drum near deeper holes.

Thunderbolt Harbor and Savannah Bend Marina are picking up big catches, especially for land-based anglers and kayakers. If you’ve got a boat, drift between the Isle of Hope Marina and the Intracoastal bridge—lots of bait stacked there and the stripers seem to know. Another hot spot right now is Oatland Creek, especially on the outgoing tide when predatory fish ambush schooling bait.

A heads up: keep an eye for gators, especially near the river mouth and marsh edges. World Atlas lists the Savannah among Georgia’s most gator-populated rivers—be safe when wade fishing.

To sum up, hit the early moving tides with soft plastics and live shrimp, target structure near high current flows, and don’t pass up deep cut channels for catfish. With fall weather settling in and steady tidal movement, expect a good mixed bag along the river.

Artificial Lure here with your Savannah River fishing report for Friday, November 21, 2025, circling the Georgia–South Carolina border.

We’ve got classic late November conditions—cool mornings with a crisp breeze. At sunrise, which came at 6:58 AM, the sky was mostly clear. Look for sunset tonight at 5:21 PM, so plan evening bites accordingly. Tides are prime for anglers: low tide hit at 8:22 AM, with high tide rolling in at 3:07 PM. Tides4Fishing shows ample tidal movement with solid solunar activity, so expect the bite to pick up an hour or so before the afternoon high.

Wind’s out of the west this morning, running around 10 knots and steady. Marine forecasts from NOAA and the National Weather Service call for seas inshore to be 1 to 2 feet, so it’s suitable for wading, bank fishing, or taking a skiff upriver.

Water temperature’s dipping toward winter, hovering in the low 60s. Fish will shift to deeper holes and structure. Don’t expect a blazing surface bite, but do target drop-offs and ledges.

Recent catches have been rewarding for patient anglers. You can count on good numbers of **striped bass** migrating up from the brackish zones, chasing shad and mullet. Use crankbaits and topwater lures—A-Z Animals reports local stripers feeding heavily on crawfish, small fish, and crustaceans, making paddletail swimbaits, chartreuse crankbaits, and popping plugs prime choices. Live bait—big shiners or cut bait—has outfished artificials for bigger specimens this week.

**Catfish** are a staple. Folks using rod-and-reel rigs baited with cut herring, chicken livers, or stinkbait are reporting steady action near the deeper bends, especially below the I-95 bridge and at the Mulberry Grove ramp. Twisted Cat Outdoors reminds us any legal bait works, but cut bait excels for blue, channel, and flathead cats.

**Red drum** and a few lingering **speckled trout** have shown up in the tidal creeks, especially on the outgoing tide where saltwater blends with river flows. Try live shrimp near marsh points or toss soft plastics in natural hues on outgoing water.

Recent local tournament talk, courtesy of Major League Fishing, confirms largemouth and spotted bass are active around the upper reaches of Back River and Abercorn Creek, especially with slow-rolled spinnerbaits and finesse worms. Pressure’s light now, so fish are ready to bite if you move slow and target structure.

Hot spots for today:
- **Hutchinson Island creek mouths**: best before and after the afternoon high tide for mixed bass and stripers.
- **Abercorn Creek and backwater sloughs**: productive for catfish and bass, especially in deeper pockets near submerged timber.

Best lures and baits:
- Striper: paddletail swimbaits, chartreuse crankbaits, live shiners.
- Catfish: cut herring, chicken livers, stinkbait.
- Bass: spinnerbaits, finesse worms, slow-jigged creature baits.
- Trout/Red Drum: live shrimp, soft plastics in new penny or chartreuse.

Remember, late fall means the bite slows midday, so focus on dawn, dusk, and tidal changes—especially the two hours before high tide. Keep an eye out for birds busting bait, a sure sign something bigger is lurking below.

# Savannah River Fishing Report - November 20th

Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure coming to you with today's fishing report for the Savannah River area.

We're looking at excellent conditions out on the water this Thursday morning. High tide hit us early at 3:04 AM at 7.41 feet, and we've got another high coming in at 3:38 PM sitting at 8.17 feet. Low tide hit around 9:18 AM, so you've got some solid water movement right now that should get the fish feeding. The tide coefficient is running high at 89, which means strong tidal flows – exactly what we want for redfish and seatrout activity.

Weather-wise, we're looking at northeast winds at just 5 knots with seas running 1-2 feet in the evening, calming down after that. Pretty manageable stuff.

The recent catch reports have been solid. Spotted seatrout are dominating – we've seen 758 reported catches, with blacktip sharks right behind at 928. Over at Tybee South Beach and the Chatham County Coast, anglers have been connecting with Gulf kingcroaker and plenty of spot croaker. The Mackay Creek area's been productive for rock sea bass, and don't sleep on the South Channel of the Savannah River for gafftopsail catfish.

For your tackle, light tackle and live bait are your bread and butter here. Fresh mullet and shrimp are going to produce – these are classic Lowcountry baits that never quit. If you're throwing artificial, topwater and shallow-running plugs should get aggressive strikes during this tide push.

My hot spots today? Head out to Tybee South Beach – it's consistently producing Gulf kingcroaker and seatrout. Second, work the South Channel area of the Savannah River itself – the current's going to push bait through there all day, and the catfish and larger seatrout follow it in.

Thanks for tuning in, and please subscribe for daily reports.

This is Artificial Lure checking in with your Savannah River fishing report for Wednesday, November 19, 2025.

We kicked off the morning with a mild fall breeze, steady temps hovering in the mid-50s at sunrise, and maybe tickling into the lower 60s by mid-day. Clear skies ruled and only a whisper of wind out of the west at about 5 knots made for glassy river conditions—ideal for both boat and bank anglers. According to Pat Prokop’s Weather & Nature Page, SE Georgia and the South Carolina Lowcountry are enjoying fine November weather; perfect for casting out or drifting live bait.

Sunrise hit the river at 6:56 AM, painting the marsh gold, and sunset’s coming early at 5:21 PM, so evening anglers don’t have much light to burn. Tide action kept things lively, with a high tide rolling over the banks just after 7:03 AM, reaching about 7.7 feet, then dropping out for a low tide around 1:28 PM near 0.6 feet, before climbing again to a solid high of 6.7 feet at 7:12 PM. These springier tides stoked up activity, especially in creek mouths and around structure.

Fish were moving, especially early and late. FishingReminder.com pegged the major bite windows in the prime morning slot now and again between 7:21 and 9:21 PM. That seems spot on with what folks have reported in the last 24 hours.

Here’s what’s biting: Striped bass, hybrid bass, and blue catfish have all shown up strong in the deeper ledges at the river bends near the Talmadge Bridge and Elba Island Cut. Several locals reported half dozen stripers in the 18- to 22-inch range taken on bucktail jigs tipped with white curly tails right along the rocks at first light. Chunk baits and cut mullet put some blue cats in the boat near Houlihan Park, with fish from 3 to 10 pounds on the stringer.

Down toward the estuary and out at the mouth near Tybee Light, spotted seatrout and redfish stayed cooperative. Trout numbers remained sharp for wade anglers using DOA Shrimp and Gulp paddletails in new penny color. Reds hit best on live mud minnows under popping corks or on fresh shrimp—especially around grass lines as the tide dropped mid-morning. Topwater action was reported on Skidaway Flats for slot reds just as the water started to pour out.

For hot lures, try white bucktail jigs for stripers, Gulp shrimp or paddletails for trout, and Bright chartreuse or natural brown for soft plastics. For bait, you won’t beat live shrimp or mud minnows, especially if you’re setting up for reds or trout, but cut shad or chicken liver is tearing up the catfish when the current is strong.

If you’re chasing numbers, stick to the upstream bends in the Savannah proper for cats and bass. If you want action on reds and trout, work the creek mouths east of Thunderbolt and poke around Lazaretto Creek. Early incoming or falling tide is your best bet, and don’t forget to try near the old docks at Fort Pulaski for surprise flounder or drum.

Local marinas and harbor mouths remain reliable—those spots concentrate baitfish with the changing current, and they’ve produced mixed bags all week long. According to Georgia Sea Grant, restoration efforts around Skidaway’s oyster beds have improved water clarity and boosted bait concentrations, so don’t shy away from the marsh edges or oyster bars.

Good morning anglers, this is Artificial Lure with your Tuesday Savannah River fishing report for November 18, 2025. Looking out over the river, conditions are setting up nicely for a productive day on the water in the Savannah area.

Sunrise was at 6:55 am this morning and sunset will be at 5:22 pm, giving us about ten and a half hours of daylight to work with. The weather as of this morning is calm, with gentle southwest winds picking up after midnight and seas at a manageable 2 to 3 feet according to the National Weather Service. Expect it to stay mostly mild with the air feeling crisp, just enough to keep you alert but not too cold for comfortable casting.

Let’s talk tides. The tidal chart from Tybee Light calls for a moderate to high tidal coefficient today, which means good water movement and likely an uptick in fish activity. High tide hit at 6:24 am (7.6 ft) and low tide will settle in around 12:47 pm (0.7 ft), followed by another push towards high at 6:32 pm (6.7 ft). That early morning high and the outgoing rush before noon are both classic windows for inshore action, especially around creek mouths and structure.

Recent reports from local guides and Georgia Outdoor News point to a strong bite this past week. On the Georgia side, red drum (redfish), speckled trout, and flounder have been brought to hand in healthy numbers, particularly in the salt marsh edges and grass flats closer to Tybee and Wilmington Island. Folks working the deeper sections—especially near the I-95 crossing and Abercorn Creek—have found striped bass, catfish, and the occasional largemouth stacking up in the slower backwaters.

Top-producing lures right now include soft plastic paddle tails in chartreuse and electric chicken patterns—great for trout and flounder along drop-offs or oyster rakes. For reds, gold spoons and popping cork rigs with live shrimp or mud minnows have been the ticket. Catfish and stripers are favoring chunked cut bait (menhaden or mullet) and fresh nightcrawlers fished in the bends with steady current.

Bass guys running up into the freshwater stretches say spinnerbaits and swim jigs–like those shown off in the Kayak Series Championships—have drawn repeated bites in deeper eddies and near fallen timber. If you’re after a mixed bag, bring a selection of live and artificial baits; shrimp and minnows are pulling double duty for everything from reds to trout to the occasional flounder.

Let me call out a couple hot spots for today:
- The area near Fort Pulaski on the Georgia side—incoming and outgoing tides have been pushing bait around and reds are stacked up.
- The cut through Hutchinson Island, especially on the edges where brackish meets the fresher river flow. Look for feeding trout near shell beds at low tide.

If you prefer bank fishing, Abercorn Creek and the junction with the Back River have been productive for panfish, bass, and the odd bullhead. Early morning and late afternoon are best; work your lures slow and let the tide do the work.

Thanks for tuning in to the Savannah River fishing report. Don’t forget to subscribe, so you don’t miss the next bite!

Good morning Savannah River anglers, this is Artificial Lure coming at you with your local fishing report for Monday, November 17, 2025. Let’s get right into it—today’s got all the signs of a dynamite fall bite.

First up, the weather: Folks waking up in the Savannah area saw mild, crisp conditions in the low 50s this morning, with highs expected in the mid-60s by the afternoon. Light winds out of the northeast around 10 knots will make for manageable drifts and cool but comfortable casting. According to the National Weather Service, we’re staying dry all day, and the barometer’s steady, which really helps stabilize fish activity.

Today’s sunrise was at 6:54 am and sunset will hit at 5:22 pm, so you’ve got a solid window of daylight to work the river. Now, the tides—crucial for river and saltwater stretch fishing. Based on the Tybee Light and Savannah gauges, we’re seeing a high tide early at 5:42 am with 7.4 feet, hitting low at 12:04 pm around 0.8 feet, and swinging back to a 6.7-foot high at 5:50 pm. That rolling tide right around lunch and into the afternoon should push bait around and get stripers, reds, and trout fired up.

Let’s talk fish. Lately on the main river and the brackish creek mouths: solid numbers of redfish in the slot, speckled trout, and a few legal flounder coming in, especially on moving tides. Folks are still running into some of the last of the fall largemouth in the upriver freshwater stretches too. According to Captain Experiences, the most commonly targeted species here right now are still redfish, trout, kingfish, and flounder—consistent with what we’re seeing hit the docks and social feeds this week.

Best baits have been a repeat of last November’s mixed-bag magic. Live shrimp is still the go-to under a popping cork for trout and reds, especially along shell banks and marsh grass edges. Mud minnows fished on the bottom have brought up some good flounder near creek mouths and deeper holes. Don’t overlook locally made Epic Bait Molds soft plastics either—they’re a favorite among regulars, especially in natural colors.

When artificial is the move, anglers should try a Shad Rap or pearl white swimbaits if the water stays clear. Major League Fishing pro Casey Ashley especially recommends an underspin with a pearl Zoom Super Fluke Jr. on 10-lb fluorocarbon for slow rolling over deeper ledges—great for when the water temp’s dipping in the 50s, as it is now. For stained water, a 3- to 5-inch paddle-tail soft plastic on a quarter-ounce jighead in chartreuse or opening night is hard to beat.

Now, for a couple of hot spots. If you’re fishing the mainstem, Oglethorpe Bridge flats and the Cut near Houlihan are delivering with the tide. Downriver, the confluence at Back River, and pretty much any deep bend near Fields Cut have both been seeing an uptick in slot reds and keeper trout. For the brackish zone, try the mouths of Salt Creek or Coffee Bluff—the current brings bait right past those drop-offs.

Quick tip for today: Focus your casts as the tide switches, especially the last hour before low. Moving water = hungry fish. And with a waxing moon building, expect the bite to keep heating up all week.
