What Can You Catch?

Hoover Creek is part of the tidal creek network around Savannah. Depending on the season, tide, and conditions, anglers in the surrounding waters may encounter red drum, spotted seatrout, black drum, sheepshead, and other coastal species.

These are possibilities for the surrounding area, not a guarantee of what you will catch from the pier.

Fishing Tips for Bell’s Landing

Watch the tide. Moving water can carry bait through creek channels and past shoreline structure. Check the local tide forecast before heading out.

Keep your setup simple. A bottom rig with shrimp or cut bait is a practical starting point. Soft-plastic lures may also be worth trying when fish are feeding actively.

Bring only what you need. A compact tackle setup is easier to manage at a smaller public fishing location.

Check local regulations. Review current Georgia saltwater fishing rules, including size limits, seasons, and possession limits, before keeping a catch.

Share the Dock With Boaters

Bell’s Landing’s pier also serves as a courtesy dock for boaters using the ramp, according to an older fishing-access directory.

Give boaters room to approach and tie up safely. If a boat comes alongside, reel in your line and move your rods and tackle out of the way. Keep the dock clear, and never leave fishing lines stretched across an area boats need to use.
