All signs are pointing to phenomenal fishing over the next several weeks. The water is still very warm close to 70 degrees but with the inevitable cooling that's coming fishing will be excellent. This fall has been really good in spite of warmer water than usual. My boat has averaged 40 fish landed per day in September and October. As the day...

Fall is here and it was 49 degrees last night in Guntersville. Now 1 dominant pattern has emerged. Shad,shad and more shad. Threadfin and gizzard shad are now the main forage and locating an area with a school of shad will also hold a school of bass. This is more complicated than it sounds as the baitfish migrate around the lake constantly and on...

Guntersville is really good at the moment and it is improving daily. It took almost 40 pounds to win the Bfl last weekend and there were several anglers with phenomenal weights for September. There are 3 completely different ways to catch them at the moment. Believe it or not the deep ledge bite is still pretty good. Tva is generating curren...

Down goes Kermit; If you like big line,big rods and a frog now is the time to come to guntersville. The Bfl super tournament is this weekend and unless somebody finds a magical school still out deep this event will definitely be won on a frog and a flipping stick. Most of my clients like to catch schooling fish this time of year but if you are wi...

It's fun out on the big pond right now. As this cooler weather approaches it's going to get even better. There are 3 ways to attack guntersville at the moment. For numbers of fish shad imitating baits in the shallow grass is the best deal. To catch big fish you can go and fish the summertime ledges or frog and flip. Yesterday we sampled a...

In September you have to be dynamic and versatile to catch them everyday. Last week we had some cooler cloudy weather and I was able to get on some shallow fish chasing bait. This week it got hot and bright and I had to move back out deep to get it going. I have fished competitively all my life and I have been very successful however in this day...

It's football season!!! Guntersville is full of fat healthy bass that look like footballs. The fall is when the fun starts. This time of year huge schools of big,hungry bass roam nomadically following baitfish. When you pull up on the right hole at the right time it can be incredible. Last week I saw schools feeding with 30-100 bass in them....

Wow!!! What a day and thankfully I had a great consistent client in the boat when it happened. Yesterday we started out at daylight like always. From daylight until 10am we landed 30 with 4 big fish which is pretty much par for the course. At 10am I idled over a big crankbait hole and there were so many bass on it they started blowing up in my bu...

This Week Has Been Great Fishing With The Big Bass Biting Very Well! The feeding windows are staying consistent and the baits have changed some but it’s been fun keeping up with them.. Had a 5th grader (Blake) out fish his dad this week he had 8 cast in a row where he caught […]

The next few months are going to be fun. There are 3 ways to approach guntersville at this time. Froggin/flippin,deep ledges and schooling fish. This last week I have caught some giants on Kermit but some days they just blow up and miss the frog while other days you can't take it away from them. The deep ledge bite will continue to be a facto...

School is in session!!! The days are getting shorter which triggers schooling action at guntersville. One day this week I saw a football field size school of bass on top feeding. As we move into August and September some days we will have the opportunity to catch 100 bass. If you like fast paced sometimes chaotic fishing this is your chance....

It's hot out and so is the fishing at guntersville. In late summer most lakes get tough but guntersville keeps producing. In the little afternoon wildcat tournaments it's taking a 5lb average to be competitive. The stocking program has improved the fishing and the grass is as healthy as I have ever seen it. The ledge bite is the most cons...

Ribbit,Ribbit!!! Ole Kermit is doing work on the big pond. This week a legitimate frog bite has emerged on the river bank and in the creeks above bb comer. The ledge bite is still very strong and is the dominant pattern. The best baits out deep are a hair jig and an 8xd crankbait. We have had several guide trips this week and the numbers are exce...

Happy 4th To Everyone! Guntersville Bass Have Been Eating Well! It’s Been Fun. Being able to catch them shallow and deep. Having these kind of options is great with our floating eel grass issue. Crappie have been a blast the past few weeks. Numbers and size has been the story. This picture below says […]

The weather is hot and so is the fishing at guntersville. With the warmer weather and air conditioners running the TVA is generating 35000 cfs and that has the bass feeding. This week we averaged 40 bass landed on 5 hour trips and the size was excellent. We had at or near 5@20lbs every day this week. The main river ledges is where most of th...

We have had 2 bouts of extreme cold here in Alabama which is very uncommon. Will this delay the spawn? NO. Will it make fishing better? Yes. We are expecting a quick warmup into the 60s and 70s in February. This cold weather along with a healthy population of bass will yield outstanding fishing this spring and summer. Why? First some of the shad...
