Need Somewhere to Go

[CAdeltaLipRipper]

Lol sounds fun and one day i would like to go up to Canada and give smallies a try on one of those remote canoe or electric boat only lakes, but we're looking more towards lake falcon lake fork similar lakes

[CAdeltaLipRipper]

I'd try Dream Lake Lodge in Livingston, Alabama....just mentioned this on another post as well to someone else....

I've fished all over the South, and it's by FAR the best fishing I've ever experienced! Average Days you'll catch 40-50 Bass per person, many in the 4-6 pound range, with a few 7+.....On a good day, could be 75 Bass per person or more.

My first day there I caught 73 Bass, including my PB of 11-04, plus a 9 pounder, and literally lost count of 5+ pound bass I caught. It's a great place, privately owned/managed by a very nice couple, great food/etc.....Website is Dreamlakelodge.com. I'm going back again this February for my birthday.

Second choice would be Guntersville....And I'd strongly Discourage Lake Fork - was a great lake in the early/mid 90's, but I think it's gone way downhill. I went there 2 Springs ago, was very bad experience. 6 of us, with a professional guide, flew in from around the country, and first day we all got Blanked! Second day, I caught 3 small fish......Haven't ever seen a lake with so many boats/pressure in my life. Won't be going back.....

Hope this helps.

I might look into the dream lake lodge that sounds good.And i know what you mean about the lake fork thing cause clear lake also used to be amazinger than amazing but within the last 5 years its quality has been going down more and more

If travelling distance isnt a problem you can come up to Kentucky & Barkely Lakes. You can fish either days or nights.

During the day you can fish the main lake ledges but your success will depend on whether or not the Corp of Engineers is pulling water. If its a good pull you should do well but if its a weak pull it can be a long slow day.

Best bit of advice is to fish at night. Concentrate on the primary lake points and bluff corners and gradually work back to the secondary points and then on to the rip rap areas and docks.

Always remember if you are night fishing during the big name tour events you want to make sure to have the boat back on the trailer before the hordes show up to launch.

And its always fun to show your fish off to these guys cause it really gets them pumped. And believe me they will be pumped cause you can flat catch more than a few nice sized fish on these lakes at night.

Fluke master has a place in North Carolina he works at......I've also heard from RW about Stick Marsh 13 in Florida.      Lake Erie as good Largemouth and amazing small mouth action...I'm sure you can't go wrong anywhere. You just can't have huge expectations. Lol I went to Guntersville thinking I was gonna catch a hog...Nada

All those lakes mentioned above are pretty good choices.

If you are eliminating El Salto simply because you have heard about the border violence you are making a mistake.

The El Salto trip is from Mazatlan into the Sierra Madre mountains--1 1/2 hours from the airport.

I've been there many times in the past several years and never had a problem. It is the border cities that have the problems-like El Paso.

Falcon is fine on the U.S. side. The jetski shooting occurred when a tourist took photos on the Mexican side.
