When it comes to Alabama=
bass fishing, you’ll find some of the best resources for great largemouth,=
smallmouth, and spotted bass in the entire country. The southern area of =
the United States is known for ample bass fishing, but the lakes and rivers=
in Alabama take the cake for these popular fish. So, where are these mira=
cle waters that produce such an abundance of bass?=0D
=0D
You may wan=
t to start with Lake Eufaula, where you’ll find large specimens weighing be=
tween seven and ten pounds on a good day and an average size of four and fi=
ve pounds any day. With the impoundment of the lake, Alabama bass fishing =
has taken off at this location. The District VI Alabama Division of Wildli=
fe and Freshwater Fisheries came in with a size limit of 14 inches to help =
replenish stock after disease brought numbers down (the previous limit had =
been 16 inches). The lake is over 87 miles long and covers over 45,000 acr=
es, making it a huge area to fish with lots of opportunity. Target this sh=
allow lake from late March to early May for best results.=0D

Alab=
ama bass fishing is also abundant at Lake Guntersville. While this is actu=
ally part of a Tennessee Valley Authority impoundment, fishing the Alabama =
side can be quite rewarding. The lake is over 69,000 acres in size and is =
supplied by the Tennessee River, which is in and of itself a great bass hab=
itat and breeding ground. There is lots of vegetation in the lake to provi=
de a nursery for young fish, and adult fish can easily find other forage fi=
sh to feast on. Growth factors are incredible, and about half of the fish =
in the lake range between 15 and 20 inches. Expect a 20-incher to weight b=
etween five and seven pounds.=0D

Jordan Lake also provides some f=
ine Alabama bass fishing. A Coosa River impoundment, it is full of forage =
species that aid in increasing growth rate and ultimately breeding larger b=
ass. It is the last reservoir on the downstream of the Coosa River and, as=
such, Jordan is the top resource for finding bass along the way. Black ba=
ss are the major species at this 6,800 acre lake with nearly 190 miles of s=
horeline. Spotted bass are also abundant and seem to be growing larger in =
size, with several of them reaching five to six pounds, an accomplishment f=
or this slightly smaller species.
