This is the year we have been waiting on. Guntersville has been full of 3-5 pounders the last couple of years but early 2023 fish catches are suggesting we have an abnormally large group of fish over 5lbs this year. I did 3 guide trips last week and we averaged 25 fish per day as well as setting the bar for big fish this year at 11lbs. The bass a...

Wow!!! What a year it has been. We have averaged over 30 bass landed per day in 2022 compared to 18 a day in 2017. That illustrates how guntersville is improving by leaps and bounds. The crappie fishing is also improving exponentially. My crappie guides are limiting out almost everyday.  It's a little chilly as I write this however the t...

Rain.Rain.Rain. It has been a wet December so far which is the best thing that could have happened for the fishing at guntersville.

In the winter the bigger fish show up and the current...

The bass fishing at guntersville this November was as good as I have ever seen it. Guntersville is a huge and dynamic lake and it's not easy but with the right adjustments we were able to consistently catch them. Shad imitating baits near the outside grass lines were the most productive but there also was a deep bite that produced well after...

With the cooling water temperatures more big fish are showing up everyday. The last 2 weeks our best 5 fish has been around 20lbs or more everyday. Our numbers are still excellent averaging 30-40 fish a day. The big bass tour at guntersville had some excellent weights and was won with a 9.39 caught punching. The lake is the healthiest it has ever...
