Hey y'all, Artificial Lure here with your Savannah River fishing report for March 16, 2025. We've got a beautiful spring day ahead of us with temps climbing into the mid-70s and partly cloudy skies. Sunrise was at 7:33 AM and sunset will be at 7:33 PM. The tides are running about normal today - we've got a low tide at 7:31 AM and a high tide coming in at 11:53 AM. The fishing has really been heating up lately as the water warms. Striped bass are starting to move up the river and anglers have been having good luck trolling with live shad or throwing bucktails near drop-offs. Some nice 10-15 pounders have been landed this week. Crappie fishing remains hot, especially up in the creeks and coves. Minnows under a float or small jigs have been producing limits of slabs. Look for them around brush piles and fallen trees in 8-12 feet of water. Redfish and speckled trout are getting more active in the lower river. Live shrimp on a popping cork or soft plastics like Gulp shrimp have been working well. Focus on oyster bars and creek mouths on the falling tide. For catfish, try fishing cut bait or chicken livers on the bottom in deeper holes. Some big blues and flatheads are being caught, especially at night. A couple hot spots to check out - the mouth of Ebenezer Creek has been good for crappie and bass, while the area around Fort Pulaski has been producing nice reds and trout. Overall, fishing is really picking up and should only get better as we move into spring. Tight lines everyone!
