Lake Hartwell Fishing Forecast for August 2022
Report Date: July 13, 2022
Water Level - full pool
Water Temp. - 87 degrees
Water Clarity - clear
July fishing for hybrids and stripers has been very good with large schools feeding good early mornings. As we go into August. I will limit my search to the lower lake in deep water, The time of day is not as important as it was earlier in the year. Sometimes the afternoon bite is better. The water usually is released from the dam in the afternoons. This water movement gets fish more active. Live herring work great. Power reeling with a big spoon or a big swim bait catch plenty of fish. Reeling a big artificial thru the school will trigger a reaction strike. Hopefully we wont get the huge rains of the last few years. I will be looking for the larger fish deeper than 80 feet deep.

The bass move deeper also. I look for bass around 20 to 30 feet deep. Brush piles on humps or long points can hold big schools of spots as the summer progresses. They group up like hybrids and stripers. The schools get larger as the summer progresses. Trust your electronics to show you the deep fish.
