Guntersville FIshing Charter February 28th Guntersville fishing report
With the warming weather a large group of fish has moved shallow and the fishing is extremely good right now. The first day of the Toyota series event 72nd place was 15lbs. Those weights are very impressive and will only get better for the next several months as the weather stabilizes. My February trips we have caught 12-20 fish per day with the average fish being over 3lbs. With March approaching we should see some of the best fishing of the year with multiple techniques factoring in.

Guntersville FIshing Charter February 21st Guntersville fishing report
Rain and current mean phenomenal fishing at Guntersville. This past week my guide trips were highly successful. One client landed 5 fish over 4lbs by himself. The thesis was fishing current breaks and keep moving until you find an active school. A lot of anglers are struggling right now which I can't really understand but Guntersville is a huge lake that can be overwhelming. We have fished strictly movement baits this week in bright colors that can be detected in the dirty water. I always want to throw something a fish can see. If they don't bite that's ok but if they can't see it that's my fault. If you are interested in a guide trip call 256-744-5185 or visit www.shaneellisfishing.com 
Guntersville FIshing Charter February 14th fishing report for Guntersville
The lake is absolutely on fire right now. Warm weather and current have the big  fish feeding early and often. The Bill Lewis Ratltrap tournament results are incredible. 11 five fish limits over 20lbs and 74th place had 14lbs. I guided almost everyday this last week and we caught a lot of big fish on multiple techniques and varied depth zones. This flurry of prespawn activity will continue into March and then we will see fish in all 3 phases. I have fished Guntersville for over 40 years and I don't think I have ever seen the lake this healthy. Every fish is beautiful and their girth is exceptional.

Guntersville FIshing Charter February 7th Guntersville fishing report
The big ones are starting to bite at guntersville. The Bfl Saturday had 6 stringers over 20lbs and it took 26lbs to win. Those big stringers came off prespawn staging areas but with the warming weather this week large groups of fish will move up shallow and the fishing should be phenomenal for the rest of the year. I did 3 guide trips last week and each day was different but we managed to catch 15-20 fish per day and had 5 fish close to 20lbs each day. The recent rains have put some much needed color in the water and the current has the fish feeding aggressively.

Another cold front has stacked the fish up out on the ledges. 75% of the boats out deep are shaking a minnow which is absolutely a great way to catch them. However I have found if you do something different you can find a bite that hasn't been...

It's no secret what the fish are doing at Guntersville. They are not on any structure at all. They are floating around out in the abyss. Yes they are usually within relative proximity of bait. Love it or hate it forward facing sonar helps track...

So far this fall has been extremely productive. Saturday with the cold front approaching we landed 100 and left them biting. Now after two nights in the twenties how can we catch them? The water temp has quickly cooled off although looking at the f...

We have a full moon. Stable water temps in the 60s and the bass are feeding aggressively. This might have been my best week of fishing all year. I have guided 4 days this week and my catch rate has been 40 per day with 10 fish a day over 4lbs and b...

The trees are turning orange and yellow. The eagles are getting active and deer are roaming. As we head into November the water temps have cooled into the 60s and the bass are feeding. This week I did 3 guide trips and our average catch rate was 25...
