Relaxed Retreat Weekly Fishing Report: Aug 09 – 16, 2026
Hello, fellow fishermen! This week on the Santee Cooper lake system, we’re in for a mix of sunny days and a sprinkle of thunderstorms. The water is warming up and clarity is holding steady, making it a great time to target species like largemouth bass and blue catfish. The fishing action picks up significantly in the early morning and late evening, so grab your gear and get ready for some fun on the water!
