Savannah River Monday: 77% Bite Rate, Reds and Stripers Schooling Heavy in Creek Bends

Hey y'all, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to gal for all things fishin' on the Savannah River, right here straddlin' Georgia and South Carolina. It's Monday mornin', tides4fishing.com shows a high fishin' day at 77%—fish are bitin' good with solunar activity rampin' up. Sunrise at 7:32 AM, sunset 7:33 PM, givin' us a long day on the water. Tides today: low at 1:15 AM hittin' 0.5 ft, high 7:44 AM at 7.8 ft, low again 1:51 PM at 0.3 ft, and evenin' high 7:56 PM at 7.7 ft. Fish the incomin' tides 'round mid-mornin' and late afternoon when currents pull baitfish into the bends—NOAA Tides and Currents backs these predictions solid. Weather's mild, expectin' highs near 74°F with partly cloudy skies, light winds from the south per US Harbors and Pat Prokop's forecast—perfect for wadin' the shallows or runnin' the river without gettin' soaked. Recent catches? Joshua Barber's Southern Waters report from Georgia Outdoor News says redfish are schoolin' heavy in the creeks, stripers pushin' upriver with shad runs, and speckled trout stackin' on oyster beds—folks limitin' out on 2-5 pounders last week. Sheepshead nibblin' barnacles too, and a few black drum mixin' in. Best lures: throw topwater mirrolures or soft plastics like paddle tails in chartreuse on the flats for reds and trout. Jigs with curly tails or bucktails bouncin' bottom for sheepshead. Live bait? Fresh shrimp or fiddler crabs on a circle hook can't be beat—rig 'em Carolina style for stripers. Hot spots: Hit the back creeks off Fort Jackson for reds hidin' in the grass, or drop lines near the Rice Hope Cut where the river bends hold big stripers. Stay safe out there, check your regs.
