There is a place in Buford Ga near Lanier that corries some small
sailboats. But I can't recall the name. It is just north of a dealership
called "Boating Atlanta" on buford hwy.

Wouldn't be Snug Harbor would it? And Buford Hwy, does it run up the
East side of the Lake? or the West side?

I just heard back from my former girlfriend up there who reminded me
of the Marina that has the storage yards I saw. It's Aqualand Marina.
Has quite a few boats in dry storage and has lots of slips as well.
When I was there, the water level was normal. Those slips may be dry
by now I suppose.

I would also look down
Holiday Road. Lots of boat dealers (new and used) there.

Okay, thanks

I put my boat in at Aqualand a lot, because theres a couple of places
up Flowery Branch that I like to hit for spotted bass.

We use to keep our boat on the trailer "Land slip" at Starboard Marina.
We had considered Aqualand but we liked the place we had to park the
boat better at Starboard. ( I wonder if they have any water at Starboard
now)

I really didn't do much fishing on Lanier, mostly day trips with the
family.

Since we got the little place on Hartwell in Gumlog creek I have been
fishing alot more. Dropped about 30 left over Christmas trees under the
dock. So the Crappie fishing is good. Some big largemouths have been
caught as well. But the biggest ones are uasually spotted eating the
crappie.

We started going after stripers this year on the pontoon boat. Bought a
insolated 20 gallon bait tank and have been using herring down by the
dam. We got on at just under 10 lbs and that was a blast. I am thinking
of getting down there this weekend and maybe running down to the dam.

The water level is down about 13ft at Hartwell right now, I was out
there Monday and still have 14ft under the dock. But my 60ft ramp is
getting rather steep :-)
