Guntersville 2-1-06

[Guest]

Just wanted to say Hi and let you know how they're hittin. We spent all day on 2-1-06 looking for bass and crappie in the mud creek area - Guntersville. We caught about 12 bass from 1lb to 4 lb using traps and worms on weed edges from 4-8 ft. And caught about 40 crappie along the way anywhere from 6 in to 16 in on jigs and minows in about 3ft on broken weed areas. Water temp was around 51f. Thought you might want to know- Good luck and good fishing.

Great to hear that G-ville is starting up for the season. Were most of the fish on flats near the creek mouths or were they in the back of the creeks? How thick is the grass that you were fishing? Is there lots of grass this time of year in the creeks? I fish in Chickamauga mostly and the only grass, if you want to call it that, is a bit of slime that will foul on hooks and there is almost none of that. Great to have you on the forum and I hope that what we all share here will put more fish in your boat, mine too I hope.

There is always grass in the big G, just where and how much is usually the ? We were on flat looking for rough deep pockets , the grass was about 4ft from bottom in about 6 to 8 ft of water, as the day warmed they started to shift to creek channels and out of the pockets. Hope this helps.emoSmile

Is that good healthy grass or is that grass that is dieing off?
