Crescent Lake

Beautiful looking fish Crappie Time!!

Crappie Time, knows of what he speaks !!!

I am some what new to the group, but I have been posting for the last month or so about the fishing in Cresent lake. I own property on the north end of the lake and have been fishing it since the mid 60's. This might go down as one of the best years in the last 10 to 15 years.

Spent Friday, Saturday, and Sunday on the lake with my dad & nephew. We kept nothing under 1lb. We ended up with at least 35 every day and only fished till 1 or 2 pm. There were boats all over the lake, and the reports I got was almost everyone was catching fish.

For those asking about boat ramps. I know of 3 but I'm sure there's more. There's Hide Away Cove (not the best ramp in the world) on the north end of the lake, off Paradise Shores drive. There's the city boat ramp in Cresent City, then there is the boat ramp in Dead lake.

If I can help anyone with more info just ask.

I live in Port Wentworth, Ga (Savannah) and used to come down to Camp Henry and fish in the spring.

I am looking to find a new place to camp/or rent cabin and fish Crescent Lake and the Camp Henry area on Lake George

Do any of you have a recommendation for me ? As I recall they weren't too far apart.

Thanks

I must agree. Those are some nice fish. Nothing prettier than the way Black Crappie look. Makes me want to head south tonight.

Hey Earl
you said two of you caught 75 fish right? Is'nt that 25 over the limit?

Sorry Earl I did not see two day time frame....
my deepest apologies

Our game wardens can be pretty stiff when it comes to limits around here. If they see you on the lake alot, chances are they are going to see what you got in the well.:p
I'm going to try and head out tomorrow. Can't get a enough of fishing for the specks.

Smackover,

Cresent Lake & Lake George are no more the maybe 20 to 25 miles apart. I know Hide Away Cove on Cresent lake has camping & cabins. Georgetown Marina has camping & cabins and is a very nice place to stay on Lake Geroge. There is also a place called Porkys on Lake George that is a motel, resturant/bar, boat ramp.

Hope that helps
