NOTES

Big Bites in the Backwater: Sharks Are Active and Abundant

Savannah Bay - Echols, GA

Inshore shark fishing around Savannah, Georgia is delivering non-stop action, especially during the warmer parts of the day. Blacktip, bonnethead, and Atlantic sharpnose sharks are feeding aggressively in the tidal creeks, river mouths, and nearshore edges of the flats. These predators are following bait schools—mainly mullet and menhaden—into shallow water, making them easy targets for anglers ready for a fight.

Bonnetheads have been especially thick around sandy bottoms and seagrass beds, showing a strong preference for live shrimp and blue crab chunks. For larger blacktips, fresh-cut bait like ladyfish or mullet soaked on the bottom has been the top producer. Tides play a big role—look for the outgoing tide to fire things up as bait is flushed from the marsh.

With warm water temps and plenty of bait moving through, shark fishing in Savannah's inshore waters is at its peak. Whether you’re looking for a fast-paced trip with the kids or testing your gear against bigger bulls and blacktips, now’s the time to get in on the action.
