Hello everyone, I am going to Kerr/ Buggs Island this weekend and I am staying all the way up-lake past Ochaneechee. I have been to the lake a few times but I always stayed at North Bend by the dam. Does anyone have any pointers or advice? I always have trouble finding good information about this lake for some reason. Anything and everything you have to offer from water temp and lake level, to baits and techniques greatly appreciated. I have had trouble in the past establishing a pattern here because it seems like no two trips are the same due to the constant fluctuation of water level. Thanks for your help.

Nitro, I am almost positive we know eachother since I am also 26 and from Bealeton. I am new to this site but I think I sent you a PM the other day. I have not been to Anna this year and while I also hate that lake; I have had some sucess in the past as well as some good tournament finishes on the lake. Send me a PM and we can chat. I will tell you what i know about the lake and hopefully it helps.

Nitroman, I am also from Bealeton and I am 26 and graduated from Liberty. I have been fishing tournaments for a long time as well and I think we should talk. I bet we can learn something from eachother and its always good to know other local anglers. More importantly, I know some great little places around our home town to catch monsters and it sounds like you do too. I am new to this site but I think I sent you a PM. Send me a reply when you have a second.

Also, I am going to Kerr/ Buggs Island this weekend and I will be staying all the way up-lake a few miles past Ochaneechee. I have been to Kerr a few times but always stayed near the dam. I know this might not be the right thread but I thought I would ask if anyone has any tips. Thanks!

I see why everyone loves this lake so much. It is beautiful and I can see the potential it has to offer. I only caught 9 fish Saturday with the best one being 3 lbs but I learned a lot about the lake. All of my fish came on soft plastics and lipless crankbaits. I stayed midlake near the 701 ramp and the water is very clear with only a slight stain. It was between 55-56 degrees.

Thanks a lot for the help guys. Will any of you be fishing Briery this weekend?

bassmanb69, I don't ussually fish a wacky worm. Do you know if I should fish it weightless or weighted? If I fish it weighted, should I use a bullet weight or a weight that doesn't slide?

Thanks bassman!

Steve that is awesome!!! I can't believe that I just found you on this forum. I spoke with you and your son for awhile at Dicks recently and you told me to join this forum. Great fish!!!

My girlfriend and I are going to Briery Creek this weekend and I have never been there before. The little bit that I know about the lake is that I should expect lots of standing timber. I can't seem to find a good map anywhere online so I will only have a map of the lake for a few hours before I launch. I would love to put my lady on some good fish and I would greatly appreciate all of the help I can get. I read a lot of people talking about wacky worms on Briery and I am not really confident with that technique. Is that something I shoud focus on or do they take lipless crackbaits and other soft plastics like senkos as well? Does anyone catch those giants on swimbaits at Briery? I am new to this forum and I really look forward to sharing and learning with everyone. Thank you very much in advance for any insight you can offer about Briery Creek Lake. I will post again early next week to share my experiences and hopefully post a picture of a nice fish.
