Nottely Lake is a reservoir in Georgia, near Union County.
Nottely gives you a choice between upper-lake cover for largemouth and clearer, rockier lower water for spotted bass. Stripers follow herring, while crappie add another option around suitable cover. It's a manageable mountain reservoir if you choose one section and learn it.
For largemouth, try the backs of Ivy Log and Young Cane creeks and pockets toward the upper lake. Spotted bass use steep rocky points and the dam area, especially when herring are nearby. Spring stripers can push into surprisingly shallow creek water, so keep watching for bait rather than assuming every large fish must be deep.
Canal Lake, Deavertown and Jacks Creek are named boat-access areas in the DNR forecast. Choose your actual ramp from the map before towing. The Canal Lake-to-Coldwell Cove stretch provides a specific upper-lake bass area to investigate.
Boating and paddling quieter arms can round out the day. Nottely's fish attractor map gives boat anglers additional structure to locate without guessing from the shoreline. Check the lake level before using a shallow launch and remember that the open lower lake can be less comfortable than a protected creek when the wind rises.
