Lake Monticello (SC) Summer Fishing Report – Updated July 26

  • by Jay

Catfish: Very good.  Captain Chris Simpson (864-992-2352) reports that even though this isn’t the best time to target big fish, the free line drifting bite remains very good.   Drifting over very deep water with unweighted/ barely weighted small pieces of cut fish or shrimp is a good way to put a bunch of fish in the boat.

Bass: Slow.  Andy Wicker reports that bass fishing has gotten downright tough on Lake Monticello, and tournament sacks have been way down.  A few fish can still be picked up around deeper humps and points on spoons and crankbaits but there is no known hot pattern right now.
