August 19, 2011, Lake Guntersville Fishing Reports – There is no doubt the “Dog Days of Summer” are making it tough out there.  This past week, I had several trips that where typical of this time of year.  Fish are scattered and unpredictable for the most part.  You can find a few fish on the shallower grass early in the mornings, but the best fish are still being found in 8-18 FOW on ledges/drops or road beds with muscle shells on them.  Most fish where in the 2-3.5 pound range with a few 4-6 pound fish in the mix and numbers being caught are holding, with a daily average of 15-30 fish.  There are several schools of bass roaming the lake and which can drastically increase your numbers, if you locate one of them.  Water temps have dropped a few degrees to 82-87 and even that is depending on the time of day.  Our better fish came on Tightline Football Head Jig’s (Black/Blue and Guntersville Special) and t-rigged Brush Hogs, Sammy’s, Frogs/Rats and plastics. There is a top water bite both early morning and late afternoon on Assassinator buzz baits, www.assassinatorbaits.com.  The frog/rat bite has started and will only improve from here on out, as water temp’s drop and the fish start to feed up for the winter! Find the areas that have duck weed and/or lily pads that are thicker or with milfoil close by or mixed in with the pads.  I have a few days available this month.  I'm already booking days for the September and October, make your reservations now for some great late summer/early fall action on Guntersville and Nickajack.
