Carp
Carp fishing in and around Excel, Alabama, offers a unique and often overlooked angling opportunity. While not traditionally targeted by all anglers, the carp in this region can grow to impressive sizes in the area's rivers and backwaters. Look to the Alabama River and its connected sloughs and ponds for your best chances. Spring and early summer, when carp are spawning, can be particularly productive. A local tip is to pre-bait an area with corn or boilies for a few days before fishing to attract carp to your chosen spot. Focus on areas with soft bottoms and submerged vegetation. Simple hair rig setups with corn or dough baits are effective. Be prepared for a strong fight, as these fish are powerful. The carp population in this area is healthy, offering the potential for some truly memorable catches.
