The unusually mild weather is yielding excellent fishing so far this month and I expect that to continue. The first day of the Toyota series championship saw seven stringers over 20lbs come across the scales and 18lbs was 16th. Those numbers are phenomenal for the fall. Most of the fish have moved shallow and they are feeding aggressively. We hav...

Last week I guided a client from Chicago every day. We averaged 45 fish per day and he caught his personal best on Tuesday. We did manage to have 1 day with our best 5 over 20lbs. Most fish have now moved shallow and are feeding on shad. Our best baits were spinnerbaits and swimbaits fished around shallow grass. As the days get shorter and the te...

Last week I had 5 guide trips at guntersville. We landed 240 bass total and had several nice fish. The fish are quickly moving into their fall pattern and the next 3 months are going to be spectacular. Twice we had 30-40 fish follow a hooked fish to the boat indicating how healthy the fishery is. There is a pretty good frog bite and some big fish...

Guntersville Gave Up Some Big Bass The Past Few Months And We Enjoyed Immensely! We saw a solid deep bite that lasted for a good time. Seen schools like we did back many years ago and they bit didn’t have to work to hard to have a big bag day in and day out. I […]

Finally we have some good current flowing out on the tennesee river. It has been dry the last month and the water had gotten stagnant but recent rains have caused tva to generate quite a bit of current and it has positioned the fish in predictable areas. Big schools of fish have moved to the river ledges and with this water movement they are...

April Has Been Pretty Good. With Some Nice Bass Being Caught! The weather is now on a warming trend and it has kicked the spawn into high gear its seemed like the bass have been wanting to move up but it seemed like the cold fronts just kept coming and some of the bass did […]

Now it's getting fun out there. The fish are in all 3 phases and can be found in 18 inches out to 18 feet. You can catch them on any bait in your box as long as you find the right group of fish and present the bait to them at the correct time of day. Is it easy? No. However if you work at it and have a concise and dynamic plan this time of ye...

Guntersville Has Been Fishing Rather Good With The Amount Of Unstable Weather. Our Guides have kept up with the bass the past few weeks with long days that are paying off daily with some nice Lake Guntersville Bass. The Bass have started to spawn but there are still a lot that have just started to […]

In Saturday's college event it took 29lbs 12oz to win and 23lbs 8oz to get a check. I have been seeing signs of this lake getting back to the glory days and now it's here. The lake is full of grass and the tigerbass stocking program is paying dividends. This last week the fish made a significant move but when we got in the right depth zon...

Guntersville Has Been Producing Some Nice Bass Even With Some Crazy Weather. Had a couple of tournaments last month one was the BFL and the other was Toyota Central. Took 2nd in the BFL with 25-02lbs with big bass of 7-08lbs and the Toyota on day one had 22-05lbs and day two 7-15lbs (3) fish […]

Bridges,Bridges,Bridges!!! This last week at guntersville tva has been generating about 80,000 cubic feet per second of current and the fish have positioned around the many famous bridges. The baitfish seek refuge from the current, use the shade as shelter and feed on the algae that grows on the pilings. The bass then follow them to the Bridges a...

This week phenomenal fishing has continued at guntersville. The lake is full of grass and the tigerbass stocking program has yielded instant results. I believe we are on the front edge of some of the best bass fishing the United States has ever seen here in guntersville Alabama. This weeks guide trips we landed 15-20 fish per day and had several...

What is an eddy? It is an area inwhich the natural flow of current is disrupted by an object creating a back flow or swirling of water. This effect creates an optimal feeding zone for all species of bass. At guntersville this effect occurs around bridges,islands,boathouses and other natural hard structure. By targeting these areas with the proper...

January is when the biggest fish start to position themselves strategically for the spawn. They will move into proximity of the spawning areas and begin to feed on shad,crawfish and bluegill. Usually these fish will be found in ditches and on points leading into bays and coves. The last few trips I have had excellent results fishing ditches and c...

We wrap up another successful year on Lake Guntersville. November brought back so many memories of several years ago when it was nothing to go out and have 20+ lbs in the 1st hour of the day and only to end the day pushing mid to high 30 lbs. With the Alabama Bass Trail 100 […]

Well This Has Not Been A Great November so far. It just seems off like the lake is stuck in a hard transition and we just can’t break out of it. We normally see this type of stuff in September. Water temps are still pretty high 61-65 have been the range I like to see […]

October is here and the cooler nights have started and a cold front or two have shown up. Bass Fishing has stayed consistent through out the summer months and now they are starting to transition to the fall bite. Capt. Mike & Capt. Shane Have Been A Rockstars This Entire Year They’ve been steady day […]

As the fish get settled into their summer time patterns we should start to see some consistency. We’ve been rather busy so once again we’ve neglected posting more updates. The Deep Bite comes and goes with the days we just have to roll with what the lake wants to offer us. Water temps are low […]

March Was Pretty Good. We Caught Some Nice Ones & Won A Tournament. We had challenging weather last month but we seemed to put them in the boat even when the conditions didn’t fair the best. It was nice seeing some big bass come in the boat hope April holds up and gives us the […]

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. I had 3 guide trips this week and we landed big ones after big ones. The average catch rate was 17 fish per day and the average size was 4lbs. We caught them deep on the creek ledges with a nicotine shad and we...
