Is the fishing adequate in the winter or all the fish too lethargic?


They are slow when and if they are shallow in the cold water, but
usually, being a very deep lake, they go deep to warmer water. Stripers
like it like that, and are really active all winter long.

http://www.lakelanierstripers.com/ Shane's a buddy. I met him because
I was dogging him one day to find out where the stripers were!!

Spotted, and large mouth bass are slow usually, but can be caught.
Smallies are active. we are in a unique fishery, both cold water and
warm water species in Lanier. There are walleye, trout, brim, sunfish,
blue gill, crappie, catfish, etc.


As for the boat, it's old, but it does go like hell! But, if you get in
a cove where there's lots of sailboats and cruisers plying the waters,
they churn the hell out of the water, and with the wind there's
whitecaps alot.

Bass,
It sounds like you have a lot to offer rec.boats as far as boating
knowledge. The problem with really getting boating discussed in here is
it is too easy to get caught up in the old time battles and political
flame fest. What do you think about putting those behind us and trying
to stay on topic?
