Trice Lake, Georgia: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Trice Lake is a Upson County water, in Georgia. This is pine and hardwood ground. The water measures roughly 15 acres, so nothing here is far from anything else. Head to Thomaston, 3.9 miles away, for anything you forgot. Beyond it, Hannahs Mill at 4.5 miles and Barnesville at 11 miles. Two sets of local rules meet not far from this water.

• Where to Fish on Trice Lake

  Depth here is unknown, so count the lead down before committing. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Rip-rap along the wall holds fish that the open bank never does. Open occurrence data for the surrounding area lists bluegill, largemouth bass and dixie chub. Check the state or provincial list before planning around one species. On Trice Lake that means starting tight and working out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 79°F for July and 44°F for January. The awkward stretch is midsummer, not midwinter. The first and last hours carry the summer; the middle is slow. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. The season on Trice Lake follows the weather closely. Late summer often means an early start or nothing at all.

• Tackle & Baits

  No public source sets out the position on this bank. Formal access is not mapped, so the last stretch is likely on foot. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. Should this one be busy, Lake Julia is 0.9 miles off. Treat Trice Lake as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
