In the Appalachian foothills of Northeast Alabama, you will come across a lake that stretches 75 miles. This body of water is Lake Guntersville, and it has been named a top bass spot by Bassmaster magazine. Catch catfish, bluegill, crappie, sunfish and, of course, plenty of bass in this prime spot.

Before heading out on the lake, grab plenty of bait at one of the local shops in the area.

Head out to one of the many boat launches or marinas along the lake to start your adventure.

Does seafood or a steak sound good after a day of fishing? The variety of nearby dining options will have you craving more.

Additional stops at vineyards, caverns, parks and museums can make a trip extra memorable, so be sure to choose local lodging to extend your Lake Guntersville visit.

Lake Guntersville is the prime spot for bass and all kinds of fun, so plan your visit today!
