Guntersville FIshing Charter August 2nd Guntersville bass fishing report
The days are getting shorter and the fish are on the move. The pre fall shad migration has started relative to the length of day and thermocline depletion. The bass are locked on bait and they are following it from the river channel as they move towards the fall staging areas. We have been catching 30-40 per day with several nice fish each day. The best baits out deep are a hair jig and a spoon and the fish that have moved shallow are being caught on a pop R and a chatterbait. The schooling activity will increase daily and this is the time of year when sheer numbers are the best. 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...

With drought conditions lingering over the southeastern United states the recent rains are a welcomed sight. Guntersville lake fishes much better when water is moving through the system and there is some color in the water. I expect excellent fishi...
