Just got back home a wee bit ago from Guntersville. The first day was blown as I was in a creek that just wasn't productive. The second day I, and everyone else, had to call it quits around 9 that morning as terrible winds were blowing. They even dismissed the schools just south of where we were at as there were strong storm and tornado warnings. The next day I finally got on a creek that was pretty good. I was finding my fish all in about 6' to 8' of water. Didn't catch a lot of bass but the fish I caught were all quality fish. Saturday I caught 3 that afternoon and the total weight was 14 lbs. They were having a huge buddy tournament on the lake that day and 25lb finished first, 22 was second and 17 was in 3rd place so I felt pretty good about having a 14 lb bag myself, especially seeing how I really don't know the lake at all. I'm saying that because I know that there's a lot here who always can out-fish you sitting in their living room back at home
I found one stretch of bank that was about 50 yards long and on it alone I caught 2 fives, a 4 and a 4 and a half and a 3 lb bass. I also lost a couple that were in the same range. Caught my last bass of the trip last night (Tuesday) a 4.5 about an hour before dark. Biggest bass I got over the week was 5.5 lbs. After I caught the 4.5 I thought of home and fishing here and got so bummed out! Not only do you catch much larger fish, they fight so much harder!
