Fishing Report, Lake Guntersville 11/13/21

Just when I was wondering why we had not seen the fall feeding frenzy it all changed, the last couple of days the numbers have picked up tremendously. We have seen some bigger fish showing up and the lake is finally turning on like it should for fall fishing; these next cold few nights should even make it better. We have a window over the next few weeks to of some really good times and the fun should be right in front of us.

This past week was all about reaction baits, chatter baits, SPRO Little John 60’s, SPRO Aruka Shad rattle baits, Spinner baits, Tight-Line swim jigs, reaction, reaction if you can turn their head they will show up and have some fun.

Moving to the Winter 

The one thing you can count on in the winter is the water temperature being the driving force behind the location of the bass during the cold months. As we see the water temperatures start to drop below 60’s we will see movement of the bass toward their winter locations. As in any lake the bass will locate near the deepest parts of the lake. That does not mean that the bass will travel miles to find deep water in fact quite the opposite. Bass are not a species that will migrate several miles to find deep water; in fact, they most of the time will not leave the longer wider creeks, they will just find the locations of deeper water within the creek they exist in. 

One of the reasons certain areas of the lake become easier to find big fish as we approach winter over others is bass are not big travelers. The long-elongated creeks the bass will not migrate far enough to leave the creek area, so they find deep water within the creek, and this might be just ten feet of water. To these fish channel areas, may just be deep banks or original creek paths along the edges of the creek that form points or old farm ponds where you have a depth change. As we get into winter, food is not the only driving factor of where bass locate themselves, as a bass consumes far less food in the chilly water than they do when the water temperature are warmer. 

One thing I find especially in early winter or late fall is that there are areas of the lake that can be significantly colder than other areas. Sometimes it is just how the north wind hits a certain area of the water. When this occurs use your temperature gage to locate some warmer water it could be the key to finding winter bass. Sometimes it is just on the other side of an island or around the nearest point, the bass will move to the warmer water especially if there still in the feeding process as we get into winter. 

Moving to the winter locations it is all about transition spots, find them and you will have much better fishing days as we move into the winter bite.
