I don’t know what it weighed. I didn’t have a scale. It was quite a bit bigger than the 6 lb I caught last year. It had not been a good day. Nothing much had worked for me. I found some bait and was just content catching stripers, a few crappie etc. I had to be somewhere and I was just trying to catch one more fish before I left when the big one hit. I’m guessing it was between 7 and 8 lbs. I was fishing with a 20-year old 6-foot Berkley Tournament spinning rod and 8 lb test. Never thought a new best would come that way. I’d been stuck on 6 lbs and caught one that size each of last 3 years.
Hey guys I’m heading down to Lake Guntersville the first week of April and just had some questions about the place. This will be my first time taking my boat outside of my comfort zone (my local lakes I’m familiar with) and I didn’t know if there was a certain way to run your boat through the place or if there were any hidden objects that I would want to avoid. We are staying in Guntersville for the weekend and will be launching the boat there as well. Any feedback is appreciated as always. Thanks in advance!
Looking for some intel on Lake Guntersville. I have a college tournament on February 25th and I'm having a hard time locating the fish. The water temps are ranging from 50-52 and the water is pretty clear for the most part.
Do you guys have any suggestions for me? I caught a 4 pounder last weekend swimming a white jig through some gras mid lake (across from Water Front ramp)
Thanks!
I don't know if anyone has any idea about this, but I was wondering how long a run would be on Guntersville. Specifically a run from South Sauty Creek (about mid-lake) down to the Guntersville City Harbor. I wouldn't be running 60mph either, probably max 50mph with about average of 45mph. If anyone has an idea or estimate that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
I live in Atlanta and want to make a weekend trip to Guntersville. It's about a 2.5 hour ride from my house so I'll make a weekend trip out of it. Couple questions.....
1. Any advice on where to put in/fish from a kayak? Not to say I can't cover some ground, but don't want to launch at a place i have to paddle far to start fishing...
2. Any suggestions on a good spot I could camp in the tent close to or even on the lake?
3. Is there a "bad time" of the year to go there?
4. What is your go-to bait/method for fishing Guntersville?
Thanks for the input!
Im new to the forum and bass fishing in general. this is my second year spending time on the water. Next week im going to take my first trip to guntersville and dont really know where to start. My home lake is douglas lake in east tn, which is a complete different type of water. So if you got any advice lay it on me.
Any one have any tips for fishing Lake Guntersville during the warm summer months? I was thinking crankbaits, carolina rigs, and football jigs around deep structure. But what about fishing weedlines?
