Fishing Report
Aliceville Lake - 4/17/2024 9:52:16 AM| Species | Detail | |
| Bass | The bass spawn is on, and the lower end of the lake around Rivermont is always the hottest spot this time of year. Anglers are throwing Texas-rigged plastics for the spawning fish while throwing spinnerbaits, swimbaits, and weightless senkos and flukes for fish not spawning. Another area to consider is Camp Pratt, along with other backwaters away from the main channel. | |
| Crappie | Crappie fishing is fair right now, but look for it to pick up as the water temps continue to warm. Camp Pratt and Big Coalfire are typically hot spots early on. Contrasting colored jigs typically work better during dirty water conditions. | |
| Catfish | Look for fish to be holding at the edge of any current along the navigation channel. Tight lining cut or whole shad is typically the best presentation this time of year. The deep holes along old river runs are also a good spot to look for catfish. | |
