Lake Guntersville has witnessed a whirlwind of seasonal changes since our last fishing report. Amidst the dance of the elements Mother Nature seems to be playing a strategic game attempting to stave off the bass from entering their spawning phase. Nevertheless a few determined individuals have boldly begun to tidy their spawning grounds motivated...

There is a lot happening at guntersville right now. A big group of fish is on bed relative to the new moon and rising water temps. There are 3 large tournaments this weekend and the water level is fluctuating daily. I did 4 guide trips this week and we had to sample prespawn and spawning fish in different areas and depth zones to get bit consiste...

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.

The big ones are biting. If you want to catch a big fish March is the time to do it. Most of the fish remain prespawn at the moment and they are feeding up for the spawn.

With everything aligning just right Guntersville may very well witness one of the most impressive spawning events in recent m...

The weather is warming and the moon is waxing which means big groups of hungry bass are moving out of the channel and searching for food in the shallows. There will be a group spawn on this moon phase but I think the vast majority will remain prespawn for a while. The key to finding these fish is setting up on a high percentage area near a spawni...

Water temps have risen from 39 to 55 in two weeks and the lake is fishing very strong. The BFL is Saturday and the Toyota is next week.

You can catc...

This extreme cold will absolutely make spring bass fishing better. Several environmental factors are at play here. One thing that will happen is the entire water column is now cold. As soon as it warms up bass will flood the shallows. The next big factor is the aquatic vegetation will thin out and it will group up the fish and it's easier to...

Wow. Guntersville is ridiculous. Congratulations to Eric Lampkin for winning the New Year's Day tournament with 5 fish that weighed 32.3 pounds. It took 29 pounds to get a check. There were many 20 plus pound bags that got a pat on the back. Guntersville has worked hard to maintain a healthy fishery with excellent habitat and the recent stock...

2023 was my best year to date as far as total bass catches is concerned. My boat averaged over 30 bass landed per day and the size was excellent landing 5@18-19 pounds regularly. My crappie guides also had an excellent year limiting out on most trips and filling a cooler every time. I did 187 trips this year and I look forward to doing even more...

Wow!!! This week was special for sure. It has been 65 degrees and cloudy all week which prompted a big group to move into feeding areas.

We caught them deep on the creek ledges with a nicotine shad and we...
