Lake Guntersville, AL Fishing Report

Fishing Report, Lake Guntersville 5/25/13

This past week has set records for one of the most productive weeks I have ever seen or been part of; the bass are grouping up and when you find them it is just a blast. Fishing days of over 100 fish could have been the norm this past week, all you needed was a couple of good enough fisherman and you could sit on a spot and catch fish for hours at a time.  Yes it did take some fishing skills to accomplish this, you had to be skilled in deep water fishing but that opportunity was there every day.

With all things possible this past week most of the week it was about the Spro DD 70 series crank bait, we did catch fish on worms, D-bombs and jigs but the schooling fish were hitting deep running crank baits.

Another interesting point is we have less grass than we had at this point in many years I think this is exposing the bass in groups and they have been easier to find than when the grass was already high in past years.

Fishing Report, Lake Guntersville 5/18/13

This past week on the lake was once again as good as it gets anywhere; it would just be hard for me to believe that maybe outside of a farm pond where the bass basically receive no fishing pressure that it could have been any better. The lake in producing like I have never seen before, every day is special and every day I get to see big smiles in my boat from my customers!

Our numbers are extremely high averaging 40 plus fish a day, having several bass in the 5 to 7 pound range and using just about any bait you can think of and catching fish! It didn’t matter if you were fishing a jig or a worm or an old timey chug bug the fish were hitting it.  It was a blessed week of bass fishing for all my customers this past week.

We mainly fished Tight-Line football jigs, Missile Bait D-Bombs and Tomahawk worms, Spooks and swim baits. All produced fish, many fish and big fish. You can see the bass stacked up on your Lowrance technology structure scan, it kind of like looking out over farm land where the animals are everywhere you look as the bass stack up together in the lake. This past week was just a gift from heaven for the bass fisherman!

Fishing Report, Lake Guntersville 5/12/13

The month of May has been as good as it gets anywhere in the country for bass anglers; this past week more of the same with great numbers, good size and lots of fun. It has just been an amazing run with the bass making fishing easy all week long. The only challenge for the week was which ramp to use in order to stay away from the large number of tournaments.

The week brought for me some of the best fun I have had in a long time, not only was the fishing great but the customers were just a pleasure to be around. We fished corporate trips, family trips and some pre-tournament anglers and watched them all have big smiles and catch gobs of fish all week long.

I must admit if I only brought out one bait all week long the Missile Bait D-bomb would have been the winning presentation; it just kept on producing all week! Fishing is just great there is much more to come and you can enjoy some of the best catching of the year.

Fishing Report, Lake Guntersville 5/4/13

If you let the elements control you this past week, the wind and rain or just odd weather all together probably frustrated you; we however made the elements our friend used the wind and rain to find fish and had a great week on the water. We had daily catches as high as 59 fish with decent size most of the week. Our biggest fish was 8.1 lbs. caught on a worm!  With plenty of 3 to 5 lb, fish caught on a variety of baits.

Our bait choice was pretty simple most the week was all about some variety of soft plastic baits, or Tight-Line football head jigs and Spro DD crank baits. The best day produced 10 fish between 4 and 7 lbs. and numbers in the 30’s for catches. A week and day from heaven, with some great customers and friends.

Come fish with me, fishing is the best it has been in a long time; let’s take your best shot at a great day on Guntersville!

The last few days moving baits have been the key. A-rigs, crankbaits, single swimbaits, Spinnerbaits are the deal.We are starting to find some big groups that are deep and on the shad and it seems that the schools are a little spooky still because when we hit them we will catch 2 to 3 maybe up to 5 on straight cast and then they will breakup for a while and then group right back up and we will hit them again. The good thing about it is one you catch them they are all  3 1/12 to 5 + pounds. I haven't thrown a big worm or a football jig on them yet but I plan to today because I believe I can catch them on it.

I have days available so call and set up your day today and keep an eye on my website for specials I am running for the month of May for past and new clients.

Good Luck

Fishing Report, Lake Guntersville 4/27/13

This past week on the water was absolutely terrific, the fish were in all three phases of the spring fishing. We caught spawning fish, pre-spawn fish and post spawn fish and when that happens no matter what you do you are successful.  The fishing was the best it has been for most of the year, with a lot of activity.

The lure selection was easy, because you could fish slow with a Missile bait twin tale worm or Tight-Line  jig, or you could catch fish on more of a post spawn bait like Punisher spinner baits or Secret Weapon and  or Assassinator buzz baits! It has certainly been a great April and May should be as good; you should see more post spawn activity especially as we get into mid May.

My customers had great catches, good numbers, pretty good size and maintained consistent activity on the water for at least 75% of the day. Come fish with me I have days available to fish with you.

Fishing Report, Lake Guntersville 4/20/13

A variety of weather produces a variety of fishing presentation; you had to be on your game this past week to stay on the active fish. The weather forced change and so did the transitioning fish, as you were constantly adjusting during the week to catch fish. The weather tightened up the bite and the transitioning fish from spawn to post spawn had you moving to deeper water especially early in the day.

The weather really caused us to slow down and work areas completely especially if we knew the area we were fishing had fish in it; you just had to keep that worm on the bottom, shake it and let it bring the bite to you. The results were great with several high number catches like 50 or more fish at some point during the week.

Great week, great customers, a variety of fish from little to seven plus pounds but always fun. It is just a blessed time of year on Guntersville for the fisherman.
