I went fishing today with Bob Shannon to Guntersville. We launched at 8AM at Seibold (its a hundred miles to the lake). Fished around the Yaght harbor and did not do too good. I got a small bass on the SBFW off a grass point and Bob got a two pounder off a pop-r next to a boathouse. Alreds was not goog either. I got another small bass off the roadbed on the SBFW. The north wind was up and the minnows were down. We fished the grass lines between the islands below the 431 bridge. I found one point that had four bass to be caught, one 15incher on the pop-r and three smaller ones on the SBFW. The upper end of the scout camp gave up another nice two pounder on the fluke on an isolated piece of grass. We went into Short Creek (I haven't fished there in 15 years) and found some schoolies between the rock quarry and the bridge. We caught 16 bass there on the SBFW, Bob had two over 2lbs. The barge pilings at Montsano was a bust. I ran into my friend Brett at the old pump station and he and I shared an adult beverage. Some fish started jumping in the middle of the cove and I got out there and caught two bass on one cast with the X-cal (small). I went to a ditch and creek mouth in Seibold and caught 4 more bass there. Bob had a two lb spot off the pop-r and I caught three small bass on the SBFW. We heard some whites in the jumps a couple hundred meters away and got to them before they went down. I cuahgt a couple of nice whites and Bob got a small bass and two big whites on the X-cal before they went down (17 ft). We ended the day at 6PM with 35 bass and 4 whites. At 2PM we only had 8 bass...TC
