Fishing Report
Aliceville Lake - 5/24/2023 3:31:40 PM| Species | Detail | |
| Bass | Some nice catches have been reported out of Aliceville recently. Bass are coming out of shallow vegetation and stumps near spawning areas. Texas-rigged plastics and jigs have been working during the day. A spinnerbait or weedless swimbait may get a bite from those fish guarding fry or around bream beds. Don’t overlook a topwater bite (frog or buzzbait) early and late. Popular areas have been the backs of the sloughs in the Coalfire area as well as Camp Pratt. | |
| Crappie | The crappie bite has slowed down. A few anglers are using crappie jigs and minnows around cover where shade is available. Best water depths are 4 to 8 feet. | |
| Catfish | The catfish anglers reported some success targeting slack water along the navigation channel. Cut shad has produced the best results. Most anglers are opting to use set lines or rod-n-reels. | |
