Lake Guntersville June 3rd 2023 Fishing Report

June 3, 2023 by Capt. Jim

Guntersville Is Fishing Good Still. Even After The Wave Of Fishermen That Came After The Recent Major Tournament That Was Held Here. The Lake Took A Beating & So Did The Fish & They Didn’t Like It! Their Feeding Became Sporadic & Unpredictable, Which Is Frustrating Just Because We Know How Great It Can Be Here.

The Heat Is Coming & Summer Time Patterns are starting to heat up as well. The best part of having a guide service with 5 guides is that all the experience under one roof and that benefits our clients so that they can have great trips.

Water Temps 77-80 degrees and water clarity is 5 feet pretty easy. Shallow bite has been a fun way to catch them using a couple different methods the best advice we can give everyone is to slow down and use your favorite soft plastics & catch some fish.

Crappie Have Been A Blast To Catch . We Have Some Dates Open For Crappie. Capt. Scott has had high numbers (100) on his trips. Fill The Freezer With Some Slabs!

Here’s Some Bass!

What A Awesome Morning On Guntersville With Capt. Mike.
22 Bass Caught & Lost Some Good Ones Too !!
She Caught Her Personal Best Too. This Lake Sure Can Put A Smile On Your Face. When They Called To Book He Told Us That They are Catching Fishing But Not What They Felt The Lake Was Known For, Well I Believe They Have A Few New Techniques To Put In Their Tackle Box!

Guntersville Is A Great Fishery With That Being Said It’s Not An Easy Place To Catch Bigger Bass Consistently. That’s Where Having Experience Here Is Helpful.

Guntersville Fishing Update. 5/19/23

May 19, 2023 by Capt. Jim

It’s Been A Good Time Since The Last Post.!! The Size Of Bass Is Impressive. If you Was Around In 2013-2015 It Will Remind You Of Those Times. We are still a year or two from seeing the 7-9 pounders on a daily basis.
Capt. Myles had a phenomenal week with his returning clients ( yes they booked him all week ) the young angler can really catch them you will see in pics below.
Capt. Mike not to be outdone put Karen on a bass of a life time an 8lb 2oz Guntersville Bass, his clients have been doing very well with quality bass.

James & Capt. Jim Fished the Foodland Tournament they had 13.99lbs (3 fish limit) and took 2nd place and for guided trips the bass have been playing pretty fair even a big old smallmouth. Check out all the pics below.

Here’s some more pics

The bass have been shallow to deep eating soft plastics to power fishing lures, it’s all on which area of the lake you’re fishing. One thing is for sure you’ll be around them with opportunities to catching a bass of a lifetime.

Guntersville Fishing 5.4.23

May 4, 2023 by Capt. Jim

Lake Guntersville Has Been Fishing Extremely Well This Year (give or take a few bad days ) The Weather Has Been Mild So Far And Keeping The Water Temps Below 70 Degrees and that has effected the Shad spawn so far. Maybe that’ll happen still but I’m not counting on it .

We had a young angler break his personal best it weighed 8lbs 8oz

The Bass are doing a lot of different things, we have most of them post spawn and still a good many spawning, the bream are on bed and there are some nice bass around the bream beds. The offshore bite is there but it’s just not totally wide open yet.

The Crappie Have Been Biting Good The Most Recent Trip (yesterday) Is Pictured Below.

James & Capt Jim fished the Capt. D’s tournament and finished 5th with 21-09lbs out of 240+ boats.

Capts Myles,Mike,Phillip, & Scott have had some awesome days. I feel like to have success at anything you have to have the right people & I can say these guys I just mention are hands down the best . They put our clients on fish day in and day out. The years of experience we have here is priceless.

Guntersville Bass Report 4.9.23

April 9, 2023 by Capt. Jim

It’s Been A Great Week Here On Guntersville! The weather has started to get right and the bass appreciated it but not as much as our clients did. Seen a Personal Best Broken Twice In One Day, 40,50,60 bass days, crappie limits, and some giant striped bass!

Personal Best Bass was caught twice with-in minutes for this young Minnesota angler while fishing with Capt.Scott they also had great numbers all 3 days they spent together. Slipped in a Crappie trip this week as well, had a limit pretty quick and some slabs for the freezer.

Numbers let’s talk about Capt. Phillips two days with this couple from New Jersey! 101 Bass this was exactly what they needed ! Just look at their catch there was some quality bass caught.

Green Bass in the morning to Striped ones in the afternoon Capt. Myles has been getting high numbers of largemouth bass mixing in some quality as well then he has been going after some big striped bass in the afternoons this is a new service for Guntersville Bass Guides it will go well with our Big Bass Mentality. Capt.Myles has added airport shuttle to his list of services. His clients flew into the Guntersville airport where picked them up and brought them back after their fishing trip.

Capt. Mike has been steady with clients catching quality bass and providing the best trip possible. We think he has the bass named with all his time on the water and knowing when to make that move to keep putting fish in the boat.

Capt.Jim’s clients had some pretty good size bass to go with their numbers. They had many over 4lbs and one 6 and a half man it was just a fun week watching them reel them bass in. Want to wish my Dad (Steve) a HAPPY BIRTHDAY 69 Years Young April 9th

Water Temps have been 62-68 this week and water clarity is a good 3 foot

Bass are starting to lock on and they are still coming everyday.

We are catching majority of our bass dragging baits. Also had some eat Topwater baits. With the post spawn approaching quickly the topwater action should be great and offshore bite will be here before you know it . May June and July are fun times to be on Guntersville and if you have new electronics or new boat and would like to learn how to locate offshore bass then we do offer a class for that as well. ELECTRONIC CLASS

Guntersville Bass n Crappie March Cold Front

March 20, 2023 by Capt. Jim

Here We Are After One Of The Nastiest Cold Fronts You Could Possible Have. With 3 Weeks Of Nice Weather ( 70s & 80s degrees ) We Get Slammed With Low 30s & Wind. All the progress of the spawn has been put on hold, at least for a few more days. This week we are expected to see temps in the high 70s so things will start to get moving back in the right direction.

Fishing had gotten tough with a lot of the bigger ones being difficult to catch our clients have tricked a couple into biting.

Water temps 54-57 in most parts right now Water clarity is 2-3 foot and some areas are stained from this high winds

Crappie! The crappie didn’t care about the weather they bit good and some pretty dang big ones too. ( see pics below ) It’s been fun and the slabs fill up a freezer pretty good too! Client caught a 2.30lb Crappie!

here are some pics

It’s all looking good from here on out that should be the last of the brutal cold! And I know I’m ready for warmer weather and the bass are for sure.

March 5, 2023 by Capt. Jim

Above Temperatures Has The Bass With Only One Thing On Their Mind…. So If You’re Waiting Till April To Catch Them Off The Spawning Flats Then You’ll More Then Likley Miss The Party! We had a angler break his personal best twice in one day!

You can tell it has things a bit messed up with one day you’re catching them good and the next day you’re catching bass but not many and they are above average. It’ll be like that for a little while till it all catches up.

With Water Temp In The Low 60’s it been great weather to go fishing for both Bass And Crappie!

What A Summer On Guntersville

August 28, 2022 by Capt. Jim

Guntersville Gave Up Some Big Bass The Past Few Months And We Enjoyed Immensely! We saw a solid deep bite that lasted for a good time. Seen schools like we did back many years ago and they bit didn’t have to work to hard to have a big bag day in and day out. I even got in some weeknight tournaments having 16lbs in 3 bass was just fun and throwing back countless 4 pounders! Clients had days they’ll remember for a long time to come! Got to take two members of the Brittish Parliament and Congressman Robert Aderholt Fishing one evening it was honor to do so, also took 3 gentlemen that are 100% Native Indians learned so much about them and their tribe.

Be sure to check out our pics. We have to focus on what we hope to be a year we all have been waiting on. Froggin….. Seeing a lot of grass topped out and its the good grass now all we need are some cold nights and cold fronts and things will get interesting. September and October Should produce so awesome frogging.
