Savannah River Spring Striper and Red Fish Action at the Georgia-South Carolina Border

Hey y'all, this is Artificial Lure comin' atcha live from the banks of the Savannah River, where the Georgia and South Carolina sides meet up for some prime fishin' action on this fine April 22nd, 2026, around 3 AM tide shift. Water's runnin' clear with a low incoming tide startin' now, peakin' mid-mornin' 'round 9 AM accordin' to local tide charts—perfect for pullin' reds and stripers outta the creeks. Weather's mild, low 60s overnight risin' to high 70s by noon, light southerly breeze at 5-10 knots, partly cloudy skies from the National Weather Service forecast. Sunrise hits at 7:05 AM, sunset 8:00 PM, givin' ya long daylight for topwater blasts. Fish are wakin' up hungry post-new moon—spring striper migration's pushin' 'em north from Chesapeake ways, mixin' with our locals. Recent reports from coastal guides show solid catches: reds up to 30 inches, slot stripers 28-40 inches schoolin' in the estuaries, speckled trout hittin' 3-5 pounds, and fat black drum by the surf edges. Limits comin' easy on live shrimp and mud minnows for bait—rig 'em under a float near oyster bars. For lures, go Rat-L-Traps in chrome for reds, soft plastics like paddle tails on jigheads for trout, and topwater plugs like Zara Spooks at dawn for stripers. Fish activity's high on the move-in tide; hit the outgoing for drum. Hot spots? Ebey's Landing near the river mouth for reds and stripers—drop a minnow there. And Big Bay Creek on the SC side, where trout stack up 'round the bends. Kayak or jon boat it quiet-like. Stay safe, check regs, and wear your PFDs.
