Largemouth Bass

Glencoe, Alabama, offers some great largemouth bass fishing, particularly in the Coosa River impoundments nearby. Neely Henry Lake is a popular destination for anglers targeting largemouth. Spring and fall are prime times, as the bass are actively feeding and moving shallow to spawn or fatten up before winter. In the spring, focus on shallow coves and spawning areas with vegetation or structure. During the fall, target points and creek channels as bass follow baitfish. A local tip: the early morning and late evening hours often produce the best results, especially during the warmer months. Numerous public boat ramps provide easy access to Neely Henry. The largemouth in this region tend to be relatively healthy, with good numbers of fish in the 2-4 pound range, and the occasional lunker exceeding 5 pounds. Consider using Alabama Rigs or crankbaits to cover water effectively.
