Guntersville FIshing Charter March 8th guntersville bass fishing report
The bass are in transition at the moment at guntersville as a big group is preparing to spawn with the warming water and new moon approaching. The outside grass line fish have moved to the spawning areas and the creek channel fish have moved into the prespawn areas. There is also an abnormal amount of schooling fish at the moment which simply displays how healthy the lake is. I did 3 guide trips this week with anglers of varying skill levels. We landed 18-19 bass per day on average and our best 5 fish were in the 20 pound range. Yesterday the water warmed from 58 to 62 degrees and with the coming rain I expect excellent fishing from here on out. If you are interested in fishing with a USCG licensed captain call 256-744-5185.

The new moon, longer days and warming water are secondary factors pushing bass up into the bedding areas. The primary factor is the number of days since they spawned last year. There are tons of small fish up shallow and some big ones. Most of the...
