This is Artificial Lure bringing you the Lake Guntersville fishing report for June 11, 2025.

Lake Guntersville is in prime summer form and the bite is red-hot across the board. Water temps are warm and steady after a run of east winds last week; floating grass got pushed into some new areas, but as the winds shifted back, things went back to normal. Expect surface temps to hold steady, though some rain in the forecast could provide a bit of cooling and maybe shake up the current patterns.

Sunrise was right around 5:34 AM this morning, with sunset expected at 7:57 PM, giving you a long, full day to chase bites up and down the lake.

Bass action is what you’d hope for in June—consistent, aggressive, and often downright electric. Folks are reporting steady catches, with a couple of wild, fast sessions where the action was every cast for 15–20 minutes, and some real trophy-caliber largemouth mixed in. With bluegill bedding in force, bass have been stacking up on those brim beds, especially from mid-morning through afternoon. According to Guntersville Bass Guides, the “shad spawn” pattern is trailing off, but those bluegill beds are where you want to be.

Best lures right now? Spinnerbaits are thriving around brim beds and grass lines. Soft plastics like Missile Bait D-Bombs, 48 stick baits, and Tight-Line jigs are top producers, especially around bedding bluegill. If you prefer power fishing, don’t overlook a bladed vibrating jig or a Texas-rigged creature bait—both are tournament-proven on these grass flats. When fish move deeper or tight to structure, try a ball-head jig minnow or a deep crankbait, especially with clouds or light rain in the mix. According to the recent 2025 REDCREST results, bladed vibrating jigs and creature baits were key winners.

If you’re after crappie, the electronics are lighting up with schools. You’ll find them around brush piles, ledges, and docks; crankbaits are producing surprise numbers when schools fire up. The bite's been described as “one slab after another” when you hit the school at the right time.

For bluegill and even the occasional surprise smallmouth, the action around shallow beds is outstanding. A worm or small jig under a float will keep you busy, especially for kids and families.

Hot spots include the mid-lake grass flats near Goose Pond, where milfoil and hydrilla are thick and holding both bass and panfish. The creek channel swings by Waterfront and the deeper water off Honeycomb Creek are also reliable—especially if a rain shower cools things down and pushes baitfish up.

No tidal activity to worry about on this stretch of the Tennessee River, so focus on wind and weather changes. Early mornings and late evenings are especially productive, so take advantage of today’s long daylight hours.

Good morning from Lake Guntersville! This is Artificial Lure coming to you with today’s on-the-water fishing report for June 11, 2025—dialed in just like a local, because, well, I am.

The sun rose this morning at 5:33 a.m. and it’ll set at 8:01 p.m., giving us a long window of prime angling. Weatherwise, warm conditions continue, with afternoon highs climbing into the upper 80s and the possibility of pop-up showers after lunch. That humidity’s got the bass frisky, but don’t forget rain gear for those “fast and furious” summer downpours.

Lake Guntersville’s water temps are humming along in the high 70s, with floating grass on the move thanks to shifting winds earlier this week—just enough to keep anglers guessing. The recent east wind shoved some grass mats around, which proved to be both a curse and a blessing. As conditions normalize, those mats are concentrating bait, attracting both bass and panfish, especially near Goose Pond and the Seibold area, two current hot spots.

Fish Lake Guntersville Guide Service and Guntersville Bass Guides are both reporting lights-out bass fishing in the last few days, with some groups boating steady numbers and even pulling off quick flurries of bites right around dusk. Several trips produced solid fish in the 2 to 4-pound range, and it’s not uncommon to find a 5-pounder lurking where the grass meets deeper water. The bite gets electric during short evening windows, so keep rods rigged and ready.

Crappie are still lighting up side-scan sonar near brush, ledges, and docks, especially in the lower reaches of the lake where the water is slower and woodier. While they’re not the main focus for everyone, don’t be surprised if a fired-up school jumps a crankbait intended for bass.

Bream beds are another story altogether—bluegill and redear sunfish are spawning, and their beds are easy to spot in protected coves. Bass are stacking just outside these beds, ready to pounce on anything resembling a panfish snack. For baits, it’s been a week for soft plastics: Missile Bait D-Bombs and stick baits worked around beds and grass lines, along with Duckett spinnerbaits over the scattered milfoil and eelgrass. The Tight-Line jig bite is showing up strong around brim beds, and don’t forget about weightless trick worms for sliding through floating grass. Topwater is still tangled up with eelgrass, but a frog or buzzbait in open pockets can draw explosive strikes.

For catfish, now’s the time to fish shallow rocky banks with meaty baits like cut shad or chicken parts—spawning activity means they’re feeding up and aggressive, especially below the Nickajack Dam.

To sum it up: target Goose Pond and Seibold for bass and panfish, focus on the edges of grass mats and bluegill beds, and keep a soft plastic, spinnerbait, and a jig ready for action. Topwater is hit-or-miss right now due to grass, but when it works, it’s dramatic.

Good morning from Lake Guntersville, Alabama—this is Artificial Lure with your mid-June fishing report. Sunrise today was at 5:33 AM, and sunset will be at 8:00 PM. We’re looking at classic late-spring conditions with steady warm water temps. Earlier in the week, an unusual east wind pushed floating grass into fresh pockets, but winds have since shifted back to normal, and things have settled out. There's rain in the forecast, so keep an eye out for short-term surface cooling, but overall, expect a warm-up as the day progresses, with light breezes and humid air helping to keep those topwater bites running hot.

Let’s get to the action: bass fishing is firing on all cylinders! The pattern this week has been all about chasing those fish off the brim beds and targeting the ledges. According to Guntersville Bass Guides, groups fishing this week had consistent bites, with some windows of nearly a fish on every cast during late afternoon. Plenty of 3-plus pounders are showing up, with both numbers and size reminiscent of the lake’s legendary seasons.

Soft plastics are still king—Missile Bait D-Bombs and 48 stick baits have been catching solid largemouth, particularly around bedding brim. Duckett Spinnerbaits have been working well when the fish are holding just off the grass lines. The Tight-Line jig bite has also picked up around shallower beds. For those hitting the deeper ledges during periods of current, a bladed vibrating jig or big worm in dark hues is hard to beat, especially as the midday sun pushes bass off the bank. Topwater bites are coming alive on shallow stump flats, especially early in the morning and again near sunset—try walking baits or poppers for explosive hits.

Crappie are stacked up and lighting up electronics—surprise schools near bass-producing structure have produced a slab or two on crankbaits and small jigs. Bluegill and redear sunfish are spawning and stacked in the shallows—prime time if you’re bringing family or want a mixed-bag day. For catfish, cut shad drifted around main-lake flats continues to produce steady action.

Hot spots to target today:
- The ledges off Goose Pond Colony and the grass edges near North Sauty Creek—both areas have seen consistent bass and panfish action.
- The stump-laden flats off Seibold and the creek mouth at Roseberry are producing big bluegill and some bonus bass.
- And don’t overlook midriver humps and break-lines that drop from 4 to 8 feet; fish are stacking when the power company’s running current.

Artificial Lure here with your Lake Guntersville fishing report for Saturday, June 7, 2025. The lake is alive with early summer action and the talk among locals is that we haven’t seen a bite quite like this since the legendary years of 2013–2015.

Weather’s settled in perfect for angling: we started the morning right around 71 degrees, barely a whisper of wind, and clouds hanging in just enough to keep the bite active throughout the day. Sunrise was at 5:34 a.m., giving folks plenty of time to get on the water before things heat up, and sunset will stretch all the way to 7:56 p.m. today. No tidal movement to worry about here, but recent May rains have stabilized and cleared the water, which is prime for both the shallow and deeper ledge bite.

The mayfly hatch kicked off big time Friday night, so Saturday morning saw bugs plastered on dock posts and overhanging limbs all around the lake—a signal for bluegill and bass to push shallow. That, along with brim beds just about everywhere you look, has the fish fired up in the 2-8 foot range near grass lines and shallow flats. The shad spawn’s about wrapped up, but those bedding bluegill are now the main attraction for both largemouth and panfish.

Speaking of what’s biting: the largemouth bass are hot right now and feeding aggressive post-spawn, suspending between shallow and the classic Guntersville offshore ledges. Soft plastics—Missile Bait D-Bombs and 48 stick baits—are doing heavy lifting, especially when tossed toward scattered grass and brim beds. Don’t overlook Duckett spinnerbaits and Tight-Line jigs around those same areas. With the mayflies out, popping topwater baits early and late is pure magic, especially over eelgrass and milfoil patches, which are as thick as they’ve been in years past.

Crappie are still being caught in good numbers on the Tennessee arm, especially near slower water and deeper brush. Bluegill and redear sunfish are going wild—their spawn is on and they’re stacked up in the shallows. If you’re hunting catfish, drift meaty baits like cut shad or chicken through the main river channel, or cast up around rocky banks for some solid bank action.

For hot spots, try the Mud Creek area for shallow grass bites and head down to Brown’s Creek for some textbook brim bed action. The milfoil and hydrilla are holding fish near the mouth of Seibold Creek too.

# Lake Guntersville Fishing Report - June 6, 2025

Mornin' anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Friday fishing update for beautiful Lake Guntersville.

We're looking at partly cloudy skies today with temperatures hitting the mid-80s by afternoon. Light winds from the southwest at 5-7 mph should keep the water surface just rippled enough to break up that harsh sun. Sunrise was at 5:32 AM, and we'll see sunset tonight at 7:58 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to get those lines wet.

The bass fishing continues to be outstanding this week! Those big females have finished their post-spawn recovery and are aggressively feeding. What's really exciting is they're still hanging in transition zones between shallow and deep water rather than pushing all the way to summer ledges. This pattern has been consistent for the past week, creating multiple opportunities for anglers.

The bluegill spawn is absolutely firing on all cylinders right now. With water temps holding steady in that perfect 73-76 degree range, those beds are active and the bass know it. This has created an ideal shallow-water opportunity, especially for those willing to keep moving and cover water.

Last weekend's mayfly hatch is still influencing fish behavior, with surface activity remaining strong around low-hanging tree limbs and dock posts. Any time we get a bug hatch like that, the brim and bass follow close behind.

For baits, spinnerbaits are thriving around bluegill beds and scattered grass lines. Soft plastics like Missile Bait D-Bombs and 48 stick baits are producing consistently. The Tight-Line jig bite has really picked up, especially around those bedding bluegill. If you're looking for a topwater bite, early morning and evening are your best bets.

Hot spots this week include North Sauty Creek where the grass is maturing fast and that old-school blend of hydrilla and milfoil is holding fish. Brown's Creek has been particularly productive during mid-day, with bass suspending on the edge of creek channels. For crappie anglers, the Tennessee portion of the lake near the state line is producing nice catches where the water moves slower and there's more woody cover.

The eelgrass is still around—frustrating at times when you're hauling in a pile of salad with your topwater—but it's keeping fish shallow and active.

Artificial Lure here with your Lake Guntersville fishing report for June 4, 2025.

We’re rolling into early summer, and Lake Guntersville is firing on all cylinders. Sunrise hit at 5:36 a.m., with sunset tonight at 7:52 p.m. According to the Old Farmer’s Almanac, today’s weather is warm and sunny, highs brushing the low 80s, and light winds—about perfect for a full day on the water.

Tide-wise, since Guntersville is a reservoir on the Tennessee River, daily water levels are managed by TVA, not the ocean’s tide, but expect steady flow rates through the day. That means no drastic changes to fish activity, just classic early summer patterns.

Bass have moved off the main beds, but they’re still hanging near shallow brim beds and grass lines. Several local guides, including Guntersville Bass Guides and Fish Lake Guntersville Guide Service, are reporting that bass activity has been excellent, with plenty of fish caught around scattered grass as well as main channel edges. Bites are happening steady through the morning, tapering off slightly midafternoon before ramping up again toward sunset.

Best baits right now: spinnerbaits have been absolute killers over brim beds and grass edges, with white/chartreuse Duckett Spinner Baits stealing the show. Tight Line Chatter Baits and Missile Bait D-Bombs are cranking out numbers, especially when worked along the outside grass lines and around docks. SPRO deep-diving crankbaits are also putting bigger fish in the boat for those working deeper ledges, along with soft plastics pitched into heavy cover.

Bluegill and shellcracker are bedding heavy, making for nonstop action in the shallows—a great chance for families to get in on easy bites. For panfish, crickets or red worms under a float are tough to beat.

Reports from guides say fish numbers are strong—anglers are commonly catching 15-25 bass a trip, with quality fish in the 3- to 5-pound range showing up daily. There’ve been some over-6-pounders landed this week, and while the true Guntersville giants are a little more elusive right now, it’s the prime time to hunt one down.

If you’re looking for hot spots, check out the grass flats around Seibold Creek and the mouth of North Sauty. These areas are loaded with brim beds and have been home to some solid bass bites all week long. Don’t overlook the riprap along the causeways in the early morning—shad and bluegill are thick, and bass are ambushing them at first light.

That’s the bite, y’all! Thanks for tuning in to today’s Lake Guntersville fishing update. Make sure to subscribe for more daily reports and local tips.

# Guntersville Lake Fishing Report - June 1, 2025

Mornin' anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Sunday fishing update for beautiful Lake Guntersville.

We're seeing perfect early summer conditions with water temps in the mid-70s and those bass transitioning nicely into their summer patterns. The recent rainfall we had in May has everything looking prime for today's fishing.

## Weather & Water Conditions

Currently sitting at 71°F with light westerly winds around 1 mph - practically glass conditions out there this morning. Expect cloudy skies today, which should keep those fish active instead of heading for deeper water to escape harsh sun.

The water level has stabilized after those May rains, and we're seeing that classic early June clarity that makes Guntersville so special this time of year.

## What's Biting

Bass fishing continues to be outstanding! Those big females have completed their spawn and are now actively feeding. Most interesting pattern I'm seeing is they're suspending between shallow and deep water rather than pushing all the way out to the ledges yet. This transition period is creating multiple opportunities for anglers.

Crappie fishing remains strong in the Tennessee portion of Guntersville where the water moves slower and there's more woody cover. If you're after panfish, both bluegill and redear sunfish are firing on all cylinders as we've hit that sweet spot between spring and summer patterns. The bluegill spawn is in full swing with water temps perfect in that 70-75 degree range.

## Best Baits & Techniques

For bass, chatter baits are absolutely crushing it right now, particularly Tight Line models. Missile Bait D-Bombs continue producing quality fish, while Duckett Spinner Baits and SPRO crankbaits (especially the DD 60) are also getting solid bites. If the bite slows, switch to dragging soft plastics - that contrast between fast and slow presentations is key this week.

Bluegill and redear are hitting in the shallows - simple cricket or worm presentations are all you need. For crappie, focus on those woody areas in the lower reservoir.

## Hot Spots

With the MLF Toyota Series recently in town, some areas have seen pressure, but two spots remain particularly productive:

1. The mid-depth transition areas where fish are suspended between their spawning grounds and summer ledges. Focus on the 8-15 foot range with scattered grass.

2. Those shallow brim beds are absolutely loaded with bass right now. Find the bluegill spawn, and you'll find hungry predators nearby.

This is shaping up to be the best June fishing Guntersville has seen in years, so get out there while the action is hot!

This is Artificial Lure with your Lake Guntersville fishing report for May 31, 2025. Waking up on the Big G today, you’re greeted with a classic late-spring sunrise at 5:41 AM and sunset coming in around 7:46 PM, so you’ve got a generous stretch of prime fishing light to work with, especially those golden early and late hours. The weather’s staying steady—mild mornings with daytime highs hitting the low 80s and just a touch of breeze, making for some pleasant hours on the water. No tides to worry about, and while water levels have been bouncing a bit from recent rains, overall clarity is solid, especially away from creek mouths and runoff.

The lake is absolutely alive right now, and it’s no secret—crappie and largemouth bass are both firing on all cylinders according to Guntersville Bass Guides. Reports from the past week echo the same: it’s fast action, whether you’re a fan of topwater chaos at dawn or you want to drag plastics along the deep edges as the sun climbs. You’ll still find a lot of bass hanging around that 3 to 8 foot zone, especially near milfoil and hydrilla beds. The full-on ledge bite is almost here, and a few big fish are already nosing out to those offshore drops, but the majority of the catch has been on the flats and just outside the grass lines.

Best baits this week? For early risers, you can’t beat a frog or buzzbait skipped along thick grass and mats—bites have been aggressive right at sunrise. As it brightens up, switch to soft plastics—Senkos, creature baits, or a white swim jig rolled right at the edge of shade. Lipless crankbaits and mid-diving shad-pattern cranks are picking up fish when they push a bit deeper. For crappie, Goose Pond is still the place to be. Anglers are filling coolers with healthy slabs using small jigs tipped with chartreuse or pink, and live minnows fished near brush piles and docks. Bluegill and shellcracker are biting well on worms, especially in shallow grassbeds, and if you’re after catfish, hit the tailwaters below the dam with cut shad or chicken livers—big blues and channels are on the prowl.

The Major League Fishing Toyota Series is in town, so expect heavier boat traffic, especially in known community holes. If you want to dodge the crowds, slide into less pressured zones like Mink Creek or North Sauty, or work the secondary ledges off the main river channel.

Hot spots right now include Goose Pond for both crappie and early morning bass, and the mid-lake milfoil stretches from Seibold to Waterfront for consistent largemouth action. The tailwaters below Guntersville Dam remain a top choice for trophy catfish.

That’s the rundown from Lake Guntersville for May 31. Thanks for tuning in, and don’t forget to subscribe for more daily updates. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.

Good morning from Lake Guntersville! This is Artificial Lure with your fishing report for May 30, 2025.

We're looking at another beautiful day on the Big G with sunrise at 5:41 AM and sunset coming around 7:45 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to get those lines wet. Weather's typical late May - warm and humid with temperatures in the mid-80s today.

Lake Guntersville is absolutely showing out right now—both the crappie and bass bites are firing on all cylinders. The bass have fully transitioned into ledge season, with most largemouth having completed their spawn. They're grouping up along deeper structure, making it prime time for ledge fishing. That tournament action we saw last week confirms it—the big fish are showing up in numbers. Just a few days ago, Isaac Peavyhouse took home that Toyota Series win with an impressive three-day total of nearly 74 pounds.

Early morning topwater action remains strong, especially around Goose Pond and North Sauty Creek. Buzzbaits and hollow-body frogs are still producing those exciting surface strikes in the milfoil and lily pads. Once the sun gets higher, switch to those football jigs – which are the hot ticket this year – or Texas-rigged creature baits worked along deeper grass edges.

For you ledge hunters, electronics will make all the difference. Watch your graph and drop down when you see them grouped up. White swim jigs, lipless crankbaits in shad or chrome patterns are producing well along channel swings and drop-offs, especially down by Seibold and Waterfront areas.

Don't let the bass fishing hype fool you – the crappie action remains impressive. If you target them around brush piles in 8 to 12 feet of water with jigs or minnows, most folks are filling limits, especially in the mid-lake and creek arms.

Hot spots right now: Goose Pond is prime for both bass and crappie action. North Sauty's grass mats are delivering those explosive topwater strikes early. Seibold ledges have been consistent for bigger bass on football jigs. And don't sleep on those deep weedlines near Waterfront – they're holding quality fish.

For your tackle box: Pack hollow-body frogs, white swim jigs, lipless crankbaits, Senkos, and football jigs in green pumpkin or black and blue. For crappie, smaller soft plastics and live minnows are your best bet.

The lake level is holding steady after our recent rains, and water temps have climbed to the low 70s in most areas. It's shaping up to be one of the best Memorial Day weekends we've had in years.

Thanks for tuning in! Be sure to subscribe for daily updates on the Big G's hottest bite. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

Howdy folks, this is Artificial Lure coming at you with your Lake Guntersville fishing report for this beautiful Wednesday morning, May 28, 2025.

Let me tell you, the Big G is absolutely showing out right now! Both bass and crappie are firing on all cylinders as we settle into that sweet spot between spring and summer patterns.

The bass have fully transitioned to their ledge patterns now that the Memorial Day heat has kicked in. Water temps are up, and those fish are grouping up nicely on deep structure. What's interesting this year is how many bass are responding to football jigs – something we started noticing earlier this month. If you're heading out today, make sure you've got those jigs tied on because they're producing some quality bites.

For those of you looking to chase crappie, they're still holding strong despite the seasonal shift. Small minnows or jigs around brush piles in that 12-15 foot range continue bringing in solid numbers. Don't let the bass fishing hype fool you – the crappie action remains impressive.

Weather-wise, we're looking at typical late May conditions – warm and humid with temperatures climbing into the mid-80s by midday. Sunrise was at 5:37 AM, and you've got until about 7:54 PM before the sun sets. There's a light breeze from the southwest that should keep things comfortable without messing up your presentations.

As for hot spots, the ledges near Browns Creek have been particularly productive this past week. Several locals have reported catching nice stringers there using deep-diving crankbaits in the morning and then switching to those football jigs as the day warms up. Another area worth checking is the bridge pilings at the Highway 69 causeway, where some hefty 5-pounders have been coming aboard.

For those of you with good electronics, now's the time to put them to work. Finding those schools holding on structure is the key to success right now. Focus on main lake points adjacent to creek channels, especially in that 15-20 foot range.

Topwater action isn't completely done either, particularly in the early mornings. Keep a walking bait or popper handy for those first light opportunities.

Remember, with the summer crowds starting to build, early starts are your friend if you want to get on those prime spots.

That's the word from Lake Guntersville today, May 28, 2025. This is Artificial Lure reminding you that a bad day fishing still beats a good day at work. Y'all stay safe out there and tight lines!
