With the cold nights and some typical winter type conditions for North Alabama the bite is slow, fish are not active and getting them to bite can be a chore; but have no fear this is a short time problem as we will shortly being seeing longer daylight days and the good times will return shortly.


This week we worked SPRO rattle baits, Picasso chatter baits, Tight-Line football jigs and swim jigs on grass edges in 15 to 18 ft. of water. We had some success, but it is just a not an easy time of year. Patience will be your friend and moderate expectations will keep you from getting frustrated. Have fun enjoy your time on the water and fish hard is the best advice I can give you!
