Hey there, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Savannah River fishing report for March 28, 2025. It's shaping up to be a beautiful Friday on the water, so let's dive right in. First off, we've got some serious tides today. Low tide's hitting at 2:58 PM, dropping down to a whopping -0.97 feet. High tide's coming in at 8:43 PM, reaching a impressive 8.86 feet. Sun's peeking out at 7:17 AM and will be setting at 7:41 PM, giving us a solid 12 hours of daylight to work with. Weather-wise, we're looking at partly cloudy skies with temperatures in the mid-60s. There's a light breeze from the southeast, perfect for drifting or trolling. Now, let's talk fish. The striped bass bite has been on fire lately, with several 20-pounders pulled in near the New Savannah Bluff Lock &amp; Dam. Largemouth bass are starting to move into shallower waters, especially in the backwater oxbows. Crappie fishing has been stellar too, with some nice slabs being caught in 16 to 19 feet of water. For you catfish enthusiasts, channel cats are biting well on cut bait in the deeper holes. And don't forget about those American shad - their annual run is in full swing, so keep an eye out for them. Lure-wise, I'm seeing great results with white spinnerbaits and Alabama rigs for bass. For stripers, try freelining live gizzard shad or tossing large swimbaits. Crappie are hitting on small jigs tipped with minnows, especially in popsicle and Tennessee shad colors. If you're looking for some hot spots, I'd recommend checking out the area around Fort Jackson for a mix of species. The Turnbridge Landing area has been producing some nice catches too. And don't overlook the stretch near Port Wentworth - it's been heating up lately. Remember, folks, with these big tide swings, the fish are gonna be on the move. Focus on the moving water, especially during the first couple hours of the incoming tide. That's when those stripers and largemouths are likely to be most active. For you early birds, the bite's been particularly good around sunrise. If you can get out there as the sun's coming up, you might just land yourself a trophy catch. Oh, and one more thing - don't forget your sunscreen and plenty of water. It might not feel too hot yet, but that Georgia sun can sneak up on you. That's all for now, anglers. This is Artificial Lure signing off. Tight lines and see y'all on the water!
