Relaxed Retreat Weekly Fishing Report: Feb 22 – Mar 01, 2026
As we slide into a fantastic week on the Santee Cooper lakes, expect sunny skies, rising temperatures, and perfect fishing conditions. With highs peaking at 94°F midweek and pleasant nights in the 50s and 60s, it’s a lovely time to cast your lines. The water is generally calm with excellent clarity that should keep fish active. Prepare your gear for an exciting range of species including bass, catfish, and crappie. Get out early and enjoy bird song while the fish are biting! You’ll be reeling them in all week long!
