Weiss Lake

Weiss Lake:  Weiss Lake is a 30,000-acre reservoir located north of Birmingham. The Coosa River, Chattooga River, and Little River meet here, creating some excellent opportunities for fishing and many types of water adventures. 

If you are a fan of crappie fishing, you have come to the right spot. After all, Weiss Lake is known as the Crappie Capital of the World! Along with crappie, you can also find catfish, bluegill, redear sunfish, largemouth bass, spotted bass and a variety of other bass species. 

Ready to fish, but need some bait first? Local bait and tackle shops have you covered. 

Need a place to launch your boat? Find a marina or boat launch that suits your needs.

After a long day of fishing, choose one of the many dining shopping options in the area.

Day trips are lovely, but a weekend trip can be even better because of the great lodging available. Staying overnight also gives you time to check out the attractions, including museums, a national preserve, and a rock village.
