ALABAMA

It appears that the big gains we made in July with numbers and size slowed as we moved into August; there is a multitude of changes going on that we will have to adjust to before the fall bite. Persistence and patience and current are the key; stay focused and look for current ...

The measure of summertime fishing in the heat and bright sunshine is not always as it appears; this past week at least early in the week was a struggle then for some reason it all turned, and the last part of the week Guntersville was on fire. I must admit it changed a bunch, ...

Rain, rain most of the week on Guntersville except for one day though the bite was good the fish were active, and we had some great times on the water; once you got through the mental part of some strong wet weather it was all good. We caught fish and had some good times. ...

June is such a great month on Guntersville and so far, it has not disappointed, weather has been awesome, the fish are biting its such a great month to have fun in the sun! The bass are moving out even though it is a little late for their typical ledge movement; they are not ...

This past week was the best for numbers this year for me, we caught lots of fish everyday I was on the water and a good number of fish in the 4 to 5 lb. range. It’s been a strange year but this week seemed to trump them all even though we had several cold nights that were definitely ...

As has been the case most of the year we were hit another cold front that put us down into the 20’s and 30’s for a couple of nights this past week; it affected the fish, but it did not shut them down. We had to move locations some, back off some the shallow areas, and find some ...

The first time this year we have had some consistent weather and I can say that the fish have moved up in big numbers, the shallows are seeing 70 plus degree water temp and the 10 ft. depth is in the 60’s pushing the fish up and acting like spring! When this occurs, it appears ...

Extremely weird year for Guntersville as we are back below normal temperatures pushing the fish back out some from their normal patterns. Not all bad as fishing is good the activity has been great, but the fish have relocated once again as the temperature change always put them ...

The beginning of the week and the end of this past week was completely different for me, but so was the weather. We went from 70-degree days and 50-degree nights to the 20’s at night and strong north winds that completely changed the bite for me. It is amazing how the constant ...

Time is moving on and the 2021 fishing season is moving quickly, but as the caretaker of my business I can tell you that its different everyday and will be until we see the weather settle into a predicable pattern that will help add some consistency to the bite. Coupled with ...

Its been a little while since the last post, we just needed a little break 2020 was a year to remember some good and some bad, but here we are in 2021 healthy and cold but that should be changing as I type this I see 10 days of temps above 50 degrees. I am all for a good cold ...

Warming temperatures really helped improve some consistency into the bite this past week; we had a couple pf days of 70 degrees warming the water into the low 50’s improving conditions considerable. We should see improvement again this up-coming week and Guntersville should ...

A wild swing in weather as February starts out decent and moves quickly to some of the
coldest days of 2021. We started the week enjoying more typical average temps then the end of the week the bottom fell out bringing cold nasty weather. We started to see the water temps ...

This is turning out to be a longer winter so far than the past several years, we are still very cold and there is colder weather to come so now there is no end in site to the low water temperatures. Add it all up and fishing is taking a hit as we are still seeing water temps ...

We are close folks; I have found that over time the middle of February is the one of the biggest changes going forward for the rest of the spring. North Alabama changes drastically in weather and we really start seeing much better movement in the fish and the activity picks ...
