I am going to hit lake Athens in the morning I struggled a couple days ago there. What are the fish biting, how deep, and where any and all help would be greatly appreciated! Thank yall

Good luck getting a boat off the trailer. The ramps were in a bad way a few weeks ago. Thermocline is around 18ft, so look for points and pumps in that range. A C-rigged trick worm or ZZ freak with some purple in it will get you bit.

I was told to use the small ramp, be careful. Lot of fishing schooling in the afternoon.

little ramp has no problems! c-ring flook rite out from ramp black and blue craw off of grass rite before sunset hit tha bridge texas rig or jig black an blue! been good for me 5.8lbs 5.7lbs 3.7lbs 2.5lbs hope it helps mite see ya out there! good luck

there is a hole at the small ramp and its not steep...go slow

Be careful

go shoot a pig instead. haha

Throw an upside down Carolina rigged--smithwick clown colored rogue (one suspend dot on the nose), with a bobber (8 foot leader needed) and stink bait trailer on 45lb mono in about a foot of water with the wind in your back at dusk. :-)

In all seriousness, just go fishin dude. It's a good little lake chalked full of good fish.

Oh, and use the one lane ramp and be careful brother, it's low!
Good Luck and welcome to the best bass fishing board on the planet!

What he really means is throw everything you have in your tackle box for a few hours at a group of fish circling a light after dusk. If you don't get bit on the first 100 casts, don't give up , just keep casting!

small white stickbait works well on other lakes in the lights. rapala makes a good one.

When Bass Johnson talks about Athens, people listen...
