    Herring spawn is on, but with the water so dingy, poor topwater bite. Got about 30 by 11am Tuesday, with a couple of big skinny spawned out females.

    Yes I know. John Jackson location says Flowery Branch which is near Lake Lanier. That's why I asked. I grew up on Clarks Hill & have fished it for over 40 years. Strom Thurmond Lake was non-existent, name wise. Everyone knew it as Clarks Hill & most guys still refer to it as that. But things change & a lot of guys only know the SC side as ST Lake & some refer to Clarks Hill as the Ga side.
    It will always be Clarks Hill to me, all of it.

    Thanks John. Can't say Clarks Hill is my favorite though. I actually have 3 favorite lakes.......Okeechobee, West Lake Toho, and Lake Kissimmee.
