Home Forums Fishing Freshwater Any of you North/MidWest Guys Want To Bass Fish Down South?

If any of you North/MidWest guys that like to bass fish that have any interest in fishing the Southeast let's hook up and swap out some great spring/summer fishing for some fall hunting (deer, mule deer, antelope, etc.).

We have great bass fishing in the Southeast but sorta poor hunting with regards to size and numbers where I live.

As with hunting, fishing is always a gamble but I've been known to hammer the fish in the head;









I can't promise you a 5+lb bass but I can tell you this, I'll have you all over areas that produce 5+lb bass and better, using proven techniques to get them to bite.

Just friendly swap/swap type stuff.

Just thought I'd at least offer.

I fish and know Guntersville pretty dad'gum well. Most any 3 day weekend I catch 50 to 150 bass and have 20 or so in the 3 to 5lb range. I usually always latch onto one or two in the 5 to 8lb range...

I figured one of those pics would be from Guntersville.

Two from Lake Weiss, One from the Coosa river stretch of Neely Henry and one from Lake Guntersville.

I also fish Wedowee (Lake RL Harris), Lake Weiss, Lake Neely Henry (though it is FAR from my strong suit), Lake Logan Martin, Lake Guntersville, Lake West Point, etc...

I'm heading to Tanner for work at the end of February. I may leave a day or two early and see what's biting on Guntersville in February.

That should still be a GREAT RATTLE BAIT bite up there, might even get into some excellent jerk bait bites after the morning top water fades out. Good luck!

I don't have much in the way of hunting opportunities, other than hogs, but if you every want to look at some different water, I know Sam Rayburn and Toledo Bend pretty well.

howdy there dawn to dusk I was just wondering if you folks down there in the southeast had any good smallmouth fishing.

The southeast is packed with great small mouth fishing. The current world record small mouth was caught not to far from my house here in SE Kentucky.

Have you tried looking at states that sell tags over the counter? My state, Washington, does this. Its expensive for an out-of-state hunter, but if you wanted to pay for the tags, I'd be happy to point you in the right direction.
