Alabama Freshwater Fishing Report for January 24 - February 4, 2024 The Alabama Freshwater Fishing report is your best resource for the Lake Guntersville Fishing Report, Weiss Lake Fishing Report, Lake Eufaula Fishing Report, Mobile Tensaw Delta Fishing Report, and all the creeks, rivers, and reservoirs in between. First up this week we’ve got Justinn Overton with the Coosa Riverkeepers. Justin picks up where Will Strickland left off last week, giving us an in-depth explanation of PCBs and how elevated concentrations affect anglers. Using Choccolocco Creek as an example, she explains how this carcinogen can stay in the waterways for decades and bioaccumulate in bass tissue. If you’re “catch-and-keep” fisherman, you’ll want to tune in to hear more about Coosa Riverkeepers involvement in getting the SHOR Act passed so that fish consumption advisories become more easily accessible for outdoorsmen. Next up we have Melissa Miller here to talk with us about the Mobile Boat Show. Boaters and anglers near the Mobile area won’t want to miss this local event, especially if you’re in the market for a new boat. Join us as we talk history, food, and water skiing squirrels. Finally we have Paul Kabalin with Engel Coolers. While you may be most familiar with high-quality coolers, dryboxes, and bait buckets, this week Paul is here to talk about their line of portable electric coolers and freezers. If you’ve ever had a hankerin’ for cold ice cream on your pontoon boat, or grown tired of making ice runs at deer camp, you’ll want to stay tuned to learn about the technology that makes these durable freezers stay icy-cold in some of the world’s harshest environments. It's all brought to you, whether it's good, bad, or ugly.

First up we have Clayton Batts on Lake Eufala. Clayton is still finding fish on the lake’s deep ledges, and he gives us the low-down on how to catch big largemouth and spotted bass on the Chattahoochee River system. Duck hunters will be interested to hear Clayton’s report on the goose migration on this important waterfowl lake, and we also talk about keeping warm on chilly fall boat rides. Next up we talk to Peter Jordan with the Lost Angler Fly Shop. Peter is catching everything from crappie to redfish on-the-fly on the Mobile-Tensaw Delta’s tidal rivers, and is getting ready for the first ever Jimbo Meador Fly Tournament. This tourney is a great chance to target red fish on the Gulf Coast, and proceeds will be benefiting Mobile Baykeeper. Finally, we wrap up with Dip McMillian. The fall bite has been good to Dip, and this week he gives us his strategies for success on the Mobile-Tensaw Delta’s inland lakes and rivers; strategies that will also be relevant for anglers targeting the Tombigbee and Alabama Rivers further inland.
