I dont catch a lot of LMs there, mostly spots and stripers. I havent really targeted the LM but I know there are stilla good number of them in the lake.

It's a trophy spotted bass fishery, and typically LM and Spots don't play nice together. That said, I'd target the Magnum Spots (which pull alot harder anyway) and if you happen to catch a LM, it's a bonus. You also get the added bonus of hanging a 25# + striper fishing where the spots are.
I do know that most of the LM that get caught are gooduns though...

Yep. I've heard it said time and again that Lanier is the best spotted bass fishery in the country. I don't know if it is the best striper fishery, but it is purty darn close. Dang shame I don't head up there more often than I do, seeing as Allatoona is a pretty pitiful spot lake, and Largemouth aren't any fun to catch (plus there are hardly any of those in the Dead Sea - the one in my avatar is not a regular occurrence).
