Guntersville is miserable on the weekends. We go once a year during the week and leave on Saturday. We used to try and fish a few hours on Saturday morning when we leave but there are so many boats it's terrible. Plus, they fish a lot different down there. They have no problem pulling up right beside you and fishing. Sometimes I put bouys out to mark channels and it draws them in like a magnet. Fishing during the week is the only way to go there.

I have found fishing cumberland at night is a lot more relaxing. It's hard to do it the older I get but at least there are not a bunch of tournaments and people just driving up and down the lake. I never have figured out why people enjoy just driving all over the lake with no real purpose!
