Deep Dive | Updated Conditions Report for Lake Murray

Here’s a quick breakdown of the current conditions on Lake Murray this week, brought to you by the Deep Dive App.

Initially, the northwest side of the lake emanating from the Saluda River was observed to be very dirty, while the southwest creek was mostly stained. However, over the last two weeks, there has been a notable improvement, with the northwest water becoming mostly stained rather than outright dirty and the southwest water becoming much clearer. In contrast, the lower end of the main lake area, which might typically be clearer, has shown only a slight improvement in clarity.

For spawn season patterns with water temps usually between 58-67˚F, historical data highlights the lower end main section of the lake as a consistent producer of top finishes, with the mid-lake main section and back half of creeks coming in at a close second.

For post-spawn season patterns with water temps usually between 68-75˚F, historical data clearly highlights the upper end main section and back half of creeks as the best areas to find bass.

Deep Dive’s database features over 10,000 tournament patterns from Top 10 finishes in major fishing tournaments.

By Sunday, the wind is expected to taper slightly, providing a calmer conclusion to the tournament.
