Intro:
As March rolls around, mother nature's revealing ways show early spring is officially underway in Alabama. Big, prespawn bass are on the move. Even in late February (traditionally cold), air temperatures hovered near 70 degrees. By April, most anglers get out the boat, trying all their new lures, rods and reels. Some even have new boats. By the end of April, bedding bass are found throughout the shallows.
May shows Alabama's Lakes have stabilized, most lakes are back to full pool, after being lowered for the last 6 months for winter pool. The shallows display newly growing, aquatic weeds in full bloom. Big bass are hungry, both male and female bass species are recuperating from the rituals of spawning and feeding takes place throughout all of Alabama's Lakes.
The weather cooperates to, with warm 70-80 degree days. By the month of May bass are generally easy to catch, hitting lures from top to bottom lake wide. As the rituals of spawning cease, and some mighty hungry fish roam the shallows, this is fishing at its best.
This season's fishing tips will cover Alabama's Lakes, with info for fishing each month for the next three months of spring. Lures, lure manufactures, fishing techniques, fishing spots and Internet websites are mentioned all throughout these springtime fishing tips. While info is provided relating to the many ways of fishing for largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and Alabama's spotted bass species.
