It feels like the kids were just home for the holidays and now spring break is right around the corner. But instead of the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, we can sit back and enjoy the calm beauty of spring. Our favorite way to kick off this season of revival, of course, is to head out for some fishing!

Allow us to share a few reasons to add a fishing trip along the Alabama Bass Trail to your spring break plans.

  • Many have pushed fishing aside during the cooler months. Spring is the perfect time to get back to it as you feel the sunshine on your face and hear the birds singing above you.
  • Early spring is the best time of the year for bass anglers. The fish are just starting to get active and move from their winter spots to the warmer, open areas of the lakes.
  • A fishing trip can be a way to vacation without the extra stress. Bring the essentials including lunch, and plan for a relaxing day out on the water to keep it simple.
  • Connect with nature. There is nothing like being out on the lake surrounded by trees coming back to life and native flowers blooming around you. Maximize your nature experience by staying at a campsite to disconnect from the world around you.
  • Fishing allows a chance to bond with your family, learn new lessons and simply be present. Put away your cell phones! Numerous memories can be made when kids share an activity with their parents without the usual distractions.

Gather up the family and spend spring break out on the water!
