Rogers Lake Fishing Guide, Evans County, Georgia

• Overview

  In Georgia, Rogers Lake belongs to Evans County. Elevation runs to 135 feet. Surface area runs to about 22 acres — small enough to read in one session. Few waters listed in Evans County are bigger. Claxton lies 4.3 miles from the water. Beyond it, Reidsville at 10 miles and Metter at 16 miles. The county edge is within a short distance of the bank.

• Where to Fish on Rogers Lake

  There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Fish Rogers Lake to its features, not to its size. Steep banks mean deep water within a rod length.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Average temperature peaks around 82°F in July and bottoms out near 49°F in January. Summer is the season to work around, not winter. October and November give a second good stretch as it cools. The hot months push the fishing to dawn and dusk. On Rogers Lake the same rules apply, with local timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  Our records carry no access rule either way. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. Parking space is the usual limit rather than the bank itself. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Should this one be busy, Shuman Pond is 2.3 miles off. Nothing here settles the position at Rogers Lake for certain.
